"It's that very passion that propels the game. "The Hall also respects the members of the Selection Committee when they follow the selection process bylaws. It is an honor to serve as a selector."
""Each year, the Hall reviews the selection process and the composition of the 50-person Selection Committee. If it is determined that any member(s) violated the selection process bylaws, they understand action will be taken. "That could include the possibility that such selector(s) would not remain a member of the committee moving forward. "The selection of a new class is the most important duty the Hall of Fame oversees each year, and the integrity of that process cannot be in question.""
