So Ecko thinks he is better than everyone because he spent $750k on a baseball and then let the world decide what to do with it? Even if this was a PR stunt by Ecko I don't think he deserves the blame. How bout blaming the HOF for excepting a branded ball?

Refusal to accept the ball on those grounds would be go against the mission of the HOF and other historical museums in general, which are to store artifacts for future generations and educate people on the objects and their place in history. Not make political decisions about the worthiness of the objects to be stored. I say this as an archivist, not just someone who once stayed in Holiday Inn Express.
