Good old Pete finally fessed up to lying all these years about gambling on his old baseball team. So did he spill the beans now just to try to get one last shot in the Hall of Fame?

I was just thinking about posting the same topic for a poll. I strongly believe Pete should be allowed in the Hall Of Fame. I also cant say i'd agree with him being accosiated with baseball ever again (like coaching). But i'd have to be in a position to review all the facts. But anyways Pete deserves the HOF more than any other player voted in the last 10 years. His contributions to the game during his career should not be over looked. He always gave the game 110%. Pete was Charlie Hustle & its a well deserved name for him. He didnt even have any outstanding baseball skills compared to AROD, Bonds or Pudge. And also the players now are all juicing thier bodys & will all reach the HOF. Pete Rose just gave the game 110% & was consistent through his career to rack up the Hits record. He always ran every hit out like it was his last. No player now can even come close to his career hits & unlike the homerun record, I dont think Petes Record will be threatened for a while. I think Pete deserves the HOF more than any1 else. I hope the commisioner loses his grudges towards Pete & lets him in the HOF.

I don't disagree. It's kind of like OJ Simpson going to the football Hall of Fame. Should we just disregard the fact he beheaded his wife and concentrate on his football performance?
I didn't add about old Petey Boy the fact that he merely admitted to gambling and not the fact that he never apologized for doing so! Check it out...
