I doubt it,  I think the guys who romanticize baseball like burns will never forgive that generation of players

which is also absurd, as if the players ruined the game or something and hurt everyone. yea, using steroids is cheating, but let's not act like steroid usage directly hurt burns or anyone else. if anything, it helped them; they benefited from it. how many baseball fans are fans because of the steroids era, and thus enjoy stuff like Burns' work?

these players made mistakes, but that mindset that the players ruined the game they love and therefore can't be in the HOF is stupid.

(not talking about burns directly here, just generalizing)
