    I agree. Charlie Hustle was what baseball was all about. He deserves a place in the HOF.

    A lot of people talk about his records. Well, I look at it another way, it's not just a matter about who let in, it's also about who you keep out.
    Yes, he only bet on the Reds and only to win BUT you have got to draw a line somewhere and it should apply to all players, not just scrubs.

    The cw ch shows the Reds games on Tuesdays. The game is in rain delay tonight. And they just showed Pete being inducted into the Reds hall of fame in 2016. That was an awesome speech.

    And you guys thought that FFS was controversial!

    Pete and Willie Mays were my idols in baseball while growing up and couldn't wait to get the newspaper to see how each did.
    It's sad that the only reason today for me to watch baseball is to help me fall asleep.

    I don’t understand how betting on your team to win could ever have been considered unethical. Shouldn’t every player and manager pull for their team to win. Betting on them to lose would be no bueno obviously. Man deserves to be in HOF in my book.

    Yes , he passed Sept. of last year . He certainly was a HOF player . They may put him in . The man that banned him Bart Giamatti , died about a week after he banned Rose . Actually Rose agreed to the ban to stop the investigations proving he lied and bet on baseball . Still he has the stats , all time great career . There are players in the MLB HOF that bet , did peds , lied before and after congress , there are some character flawed people in the HOF . A man told me one time , dont get to close to your heroes or get to know them too well . You may not like what you see .

    The way people hate “cheating” on here I’m surprised so many people are defending Pete Rose

    Well, if they're going to let the Menendez brothers out of prison, why not let Pete in the HOF.
