Rest in peace Pete !
I think Pete Rose should have been in the Hall of Fame.
I've already posted this on another site and I felt I had to post here too.
Baseball & sports are full of players and organizations that were and are flawed.
Steroids were blamed for all the games evils while amphetamines ran wild for decades. The list of what shouldn't have been done but was done in sports is to long to list.
If there's a case to be made that stats are tainted,then can the case be made for all MLB stats are meaningless before 1947 because a man could be denied a spot on the roster because of the color of his skin.
Please excuse my rant.
Today I'm bitter. I'm a die-hard life long Mets fan who both loved & hated Pete Rose.
But I never did nor will I ever question his integrity.
I saw him play and booed him. I met him in Las Vegas & briefly reminisced with him.
I will never forget how hard he played the game.
Rest in peace Pete !
