As a player, should Pete Rose still be in the Hall of Fame?

[bamabear82]

LET HIM IN,,,,,I always thought it was BS,I'm not a Rose fan but still he was one of the best to ever play

Yep.

 

[grayghost668]

Fuck Pete. Hope the faggot never gets in the hall

Lied and lied

a bart giamatti was crucified after his death because Pete lied.

Now he is a money hungry attention whore

Keep the ban!

just tell us how you feel,,,,just let it alllllllllll out

 

[olympicoscar]

Anyone feel like its time to re-instate him?
Most hits ever. I think he has paid his dues.

Or is a lifetime ban in order and justified?

As long as he never bet on his team to lose, then he belongs in the HOF.

 

[FNG]

Maybe with the next commish.

Oh my god. For once I agree with a Sooner Fan!

Did you lose some money because of him back in the day?

 

[bocomo007]

He shouldn't be allowed to coach again or work for an MLB team if that is what you are implying, but I do think it is time that they allow him to earn recognition for his playing days (particularly, by allowing into Cooperstown).

agreed

and yes, it will take a new commish (or pete dying)

 

[OregonDucks]

he lied? Roger Clemens lied as well. He should be ousted for life too.

GTFO.

How is Pete a 'money hungry attention whore?' You barely ever hear from him. And don't say 'writing a book' bc people do that shit all the time.

He easily deserves to be in the Hall

 

[ForkEmBucky]

I don't know. Didn't he only bet on his team to win? I can't remember.

 

[BrawlinHawkeye]

Pete Rose is Baseball !!!!! He should have been in the Hall of Fame many years ago. He took out a catcher in an All Star game. You think he would ever throw a game? Not a chance.

 

[grayghost668]

to me it's just not right CHARLIE HUSTLE should be in the HOF,,,one of the best players to ever play the game

 

[JTEGGER]

I definitely feel Pete should be in The Hall, but he hasn't done himself any favors. Hell, three weeks ago he was signing autographs at a local casino near Cincinatti.

More people at a casino than at church

 

[beardown07]

Anybody who thinks Rose ever threw a game, obviously didn't watch him play.

Pete Rose hasn't given up on seeing his lifetime ban lifted

On the day that Pete Rose makes his return to managing in a one-day stint with the independent Bridgeport Bluefish, 25 years after he last managed the Cincinnati Reds, MLB's career hits leader says he remains optimistic that his lifetime ban for betting on baseball will one day be lifted.

"I've waited 25 years, but I've done so because I was the one who screwed up," Rose told ESPN.com. "And if I were given a second chance, I would be the happiest guy in the world."

On Jan. 24, 2015, MLB commissioner Bud Selig, who has not ruled on lifting Rose's ban since he applied for reinstatement in 1997, is retiring. Rose was banned from the game in August 1989.

"I haven't given up on Bud," Rose said. "I'm not glad he's leaving. He has a love for the game and has been good for it. If the next guy is his best friend, I don't expect he'll just turn me loose, but if he isn't, I hope he has an open mind."

Rose spends 20 days a month, for four and a half hours a day, sitting inside a Las Vegas store called the Art of Music on the strip signing autographs. Items cost between $80 and $800, Rose said, which includes some quality talking time with the slugger.

His records (all of which are PED-free, as far as anybody knows) are all there.

MLB makes a mockery of itself by not putting the person who set them into its own hall of fame.

It can happen while still keeping him banned from MLB, despite what ignoramuses say.

 

[navamind]

And I haven't given up on marrying Kate Upton.

 

[depraved]

My belief is they will not give him the honor of being inducted and lifting his lifetime band until he is dead. That will be his punishment. The year he dies is the year he will be inducted into the hall of fame. It's a shame because as cezero says all his records are recognized.

where to start ? 1st off MLB has nothing to do with the HoF. They are separate and independent of one another. Getting his suspension lifted does not guarantee him entry to the Hall nor should it. The only hope Rose has is Bud Selig becuz I can guarantee you Rob Manfred will not take his foot off the throat of this clown. Manfred is a much different person than Bud Selig and will not give in on this. I can tell you I know this for fact.

Eat shit.

She's going to be mine. You can have her when she's 25 and I've used and abused her body.
