General Pete,lol... What do you think? If he bet against his own team? Pete Rose WAS baseball! PERIOD! He was everything that was good about baseball in the 1970`s 80`s....But for him to have wagered against his own team, I just can`t see this being acceptable...The dude was a great competitor I loved him...
I think he`s probably a real ass to the general public, everything you ever hear about Rose as a person off the filed he`s a real dick...
Was he a great player who clearly should be a Hall of Famer , HELL YES!
I just don`t know if he should get in, maybe if he would have admitted it.....

General , just answer the one question....
If Rose bet against Cincy the team he managed , should he still get in?
Even if he never admits it?
Yes he has done his time, but atleast an admission of some sort, he has lied for years about even making a baseball wager at all, i still don`t think he`s admitted he bet on baseball anywhere publicly...I think he made a big mistake and must have been given bad advice , as it appears he thought after one year he`d be eligible to re-apply and would be back...

I think its very obvious he bet on his own team, I vote let Rose in, but I think he should NOT work for a baseball team again..
Either way his on field greatness has never been questioned, as his name is tarnished forever, whether he gets in or not I don`t think it changes his image at this point......
Rose bet on baseball and his own team!

The debate may rage on, but our jury has spoken: Pete Rose deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. Baseball's all-time hits leader, banned for life for allegedly betting on the sport, should be allowed induction at Cooperstown, the jury of ESPN's mock trial said after hearing three hours of testimony and deliberating for more than five hours more at Harvard Law School
pete rose tampered with the outcome of games.all of us are bettors if we every found out a college ball player was tampering with games we got down on we would cut his nuts off.thats what baseball is doing to rose.he focked with their game now they are focking with his life.he knew the rules.
