If they ever get in, it should be posthumously...or at least after I'M DEAD!

To be frank, however, the sanctity of the Hall has long since been violated in my opinion. Cheaters are already in, cheaters will continue to get in, long after we are all gone.
But, this is how standards get eroded, one negative step at a time...viewing past errors as acceptable.
