To answer the question I would say which ever one fits. I don't think any helmet or hat ever did.

Seriously watch a vid of him batting and his helmet was shaking every time he swung.

And the way he wore his hats, holy cow. He had to be at least 25% genetically cone head......his long hair wasn't a fashion statement, he was hiding cone.

When I close my eyes and you say his name I remember him as a Dodger, hitting all those deep Homers to right.. Quite the player..

I think of him first as a Dodger.

Just checked his stats and was surprised that all his batting #'s (except average) were higher as a Met.
Granted he played 8 years in NY & 7 in LA
HR's 220 to 177
RBI 655 to 563
2B 193 to 115
Runs 532 to 443

So I have no issue w/ him going in as a Met

He feels like a Dodger to me but on this one I am ok either way. I do like the Fisk rule though, though not necessarily as a means to prevent people from Fisking even though that is nice because that was a bit gross.

The HOF is a historical organization and what is represented should be the most accurate representation of history possible. If you let the players decide you might get a guy who played 15 years for one team (no WS titles) and his final 3 for a second (1 WS title) who elects to go in as a member of the 3-year team where he won the WS instead of the team where he spent almost all of his career (ie, not very historically accurate).
