Dale Petroskey stepped down today as president of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, as reported in the Oneonta Daily Star.
“The resignation is the result of our finding that Dale Petroskey failed to exercise proper fiduciary responsibility and it follows other business judgments that were not in the best interest of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.
“As a result of this announcement, we are pleased to announce the promotion of Jeff Idelson to the position of acting-President. We will begin a search for a new President and while it is ongoing, we have full confidence that Jeff Idelson will be a strong and effective leader of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.”
5 I don't think I'm the only one who enjoys your "boring historical anecdotes". Players in the HOF have each been written about thousands of times, many of those the same old stories we always hear. It's time for something different. Let me know when its time to set up your Indiana Headquarters, I think Hinkle Fieldhouse would be a great place to get this campaign started.
Although I have been in the Hoosier State, I have never been in Indianapolis. I've just been in the part of Indiana that takes you between Chicago and Michigan and I also made a trip to Notre Dame.
You've only been in the bad part of the state. Southern Indiana is a beautiful area from spring through fall. The northern part of the state is more like a parking lot. Maybe one day you could visit Southern Indiana on the way to Cincinnati for opening day. Don't forget to stop here in Martinsville, home of John Wooden.
The good people at UMI/ProQuest consigned Random Game Callbacks to the dustbin of boring historical anecdotes.
