The best "drop the mic" point I've heard to show why Rose's gambling was 100x's worse for baseball was from a commentator about 10 yrs ago. He said imagine if the Mitchell report was about gambling and not baseball. That every team in the league had someone who bet on the game, not juiced up. What would that mean for MLB? It would have killed the sport. Period.
