Rose? HOF? NEVER!!! I will never watch a baseball game if that happens.

Pete Rose is justly banned from baseball because he broke this rule, which is posted in every clubhouse:

"Rule 21(d):
BETTING ON BALL GAMES. Any player, umpire, or club official or employee, who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection with which the bettor has no duty to perform shall be declared ineligible for one year.

Any player, umpire, or club or league official or employee, who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection with which the bettor has a duty to perform shall be declared permanently ineligible."

Then he lied about it. For years. You do not do not DO NOT put people like that in a Hall of Fame.
