In response to "Bud Selig being mad at the Mets for going public is like a criminal being mad at the victim for calling the cops. -- nm" by David

what was his reasoning for not allowing the hats?

I can't figure out why he'd not allow this. It just doesn't make sense.

They're saying it was Joe Torre's call and he believes that no exceptions means no exceptions. -- nm - David Sep 13, 11:06 1
- Stupid decision, but mountains being made out of molehills, imo. - musubi Sep 13, 11:13
cause then all the teams might want to wear hats recognizing first responders on the anniversary of 9/11. Couldn't have that. -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 11:04 8
- I think he's gone completely senile. - Mel Profit Sep 13, 11:06 7
  - it's why the NFL is where they are and MLB is where they are -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 11:07 6
    - NFL held the same position on 'unofficial' 9/11 stuff as did the MLB - and fined any player who wore it. - decline Sep 13, 11:16 2
      - "NFL will let players wear special 9/11 tribute apparel this Sunday" -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 11:17 1
        
        They let them wear league authoritzed tribute apparel. Just like MLB did. - musubi Sep 13, 11:20
    - Because people love the bloodlust and violence inheirent in the more brutal sport? (nm) - musubi Sep 13, 11:12 2
      - I'llput NFL mgt decision up against MLB decisions any day of the week for the last 20 years - Beaker Sep 13, 11:15 1
        
        I dislike a lot of what Selig has done, but to pretend the NFL hasn't succeed in spite of it's own authoritarian and ugly policy is sticking your - musubi Sep 13, 11:19
