I am sure people like yourself number in the thousands for the reason you just stated. I have no problem with that. But to suggest your opinion is rare or does not exist is like denying it is cooler in the shade.
I personally do not support either of them. I hope the day Rose dies he does so not a member of the HOF, and with no hope of ever becoming a member.
I do not agree with your opinion on Rose. He put himself in a position that could have led the game itself to be compromised. Whether he actually did or did not isn't the issue. We cannot have others thinking it's ok as long as you don't go too far.
