Philly,

Do you know when Jackie was adopted into the Hall? Was it the politically correct decade of the 2000's? How about the 1990s? I'll save you the google trouble and tell you that he was inducted into the hall in the 1960s. Not the late the 1960s, but the early 1960s. He was inducted into the Hall based on merit.
