Pete Rose
I have been thinking alot about his ban from baseball and from the H.O.F.. I know it probably sounds strange but here it goes.
Pete Rose was banned from baseball and from ever returning to baseball as a coach, gm, player and the HoF for betting on baseball. Now I think right or wrong this ban was complete Bull****. (excuse my french) You can BAN a guy for betting on a sport, but they continue to allow players that are busted on roids to play. Granted they get suspended but does that seem fair?
Take a look at the 2 problems and their punishments
Betting on baseball - Permanatly banned from anything to do with baseball and the Hall of Fame.
Busted for using steriods- Suspention, put in a little program that does no good(look at strawberry), and fined.
Ok HONESTLY, overall what hurts baseball more?
Personally like i said right or wrong did Pete rose betting on baseball actually hurt the game? Or was it merely an image issue?
Now take steriods. THEY DO RUIN the game. It gives players an edge that they would not have without the steriods. Steriods are a DRUG. Take these points and sign my petition. I plan to take these posts and compile them and send them into the MLB. By whatever means possible. Take the time to post you name if you are in agreeance that Pete Rose has been punished long enough and that Roids are the real Problem in baseball deserving of a ban , not Pete rose. !!!
