The statue matches the size of Steinbrenner's ego. As for the Hall of Fame, I find it appalling and offensive that guys like him could be inducted into Cooperstown while worthy players like Minnie Minoso and Ron Santo are on the outside looking in. It's like the Roman emperors who a spent vast sums to erect statues that deified themselves. More than anything, though, I cringe at the thought of Bud Selig being inducted ...
