Again, it was not only gambling he was guilty of. The lifetime ban was a plea deal

Reminder: Pete Rose admitted to raping an under age child.
Feel free to verify if you like.
Wait, they were on him that early? Damn, Charlie Hustle really couldn’t stay away from the books
Pete Rose is the greatest embarrassment to baseball in history, and I am dreading the day he’s welcomed into Cooperstown.
Keep the permanent ban. Plus his comments re: Shohei Ohtani and his translator were abhorrent and show a complete lack of remorse.
> As early as the 1970s, MLB looked into Rose for suspected associations with bookmakers, investigators said years later. But the investigation did not lead to any action against him.
If they’d spoken with the Philly mob, maybe they could have moved a lot sooner. Mobsters as a rule don’t like being stiffed on gambling debts.
Betting aside, rapists should stay out of the hall of fame. Too many kids look up to these guys
Pete Rose was overall a shit human being whos statue in the hall immediately destroys its legitimacy. Its nothing but a hypocritical reaction made by a terrible commissioner.
Known child rapists don’t deserved to be honored.
Ever.
Only one rule posted in every major league clubhouse. Don’t ever bet on baseball. One rule.
