Pete Rose
 
In or out? If you don't know what I'm talking about then you shouldn't respond. Whataya think? I say IN.

cmj1210 09-03-2014 02:11 PM

He should be in... No doubt

dgammon6 09-03-2014 02:21 PM

In.

dewilson58 09-03-2014 02:30 PM

Out.

Will degrade others already in.

redwitch 09-03-2014 03:37 PM

In. In. IN!! Charlie Hustle belongs -- he never gave less than his all on the field.

SALYBOW 09-03-2014 04:55 PM

Although I do not like him personally, he should be in. Look at some of the people who did things much worse than he and were never dismissed from baseball.

MsBrown 09-03-2014 05:22 PM

In....in.....in

tommy steam 09-03-2014 05:41 PM

TidalWalkers 09-03-2014 06:13 PM

Lived in Cincy at that time.....stil say IN! Lots of others have done worse.

tag460 09-03-2014 06:32 PM

scottiee 09-03-2014 06:56 PM

IN for sure

CFrance 09-03-2014 07:19 PM

Out. And the ones who did worse... out too.

Kelsie52 09-03-2014 07:21 PM

In ----

anarick 09-03-2014 07:37 PM

If let in will open the way for others who broke the rules.
I'd say OUT.

Greggers069 09-03-2014 07:40 PM

In his actions late in his career didn't diminish his skills as a player or his achievements.

dbussone 09-03-2014 07:44 PM

Out

Birdie Dreamer 09-03-2014 07:44 PM

In.

Didiwinbob 09-03-2014 09:14 PM

IN!

TicoTexan 09-04-2014 05:14 AM

Out

Lark7 09-04-2014 05:51 AM

Without question, In.

msfooter 09-04-2014 06:09 AM

Definitely OUT!

thelegges 09-04-2014 06:15 AM

His house was next-door to a friend of mine. Spent time having picnics and parties with him. Although I do not condone his earlier actions. IN

Cedwards38 09-04-2014 06:53 AM

At this point, if my count is correct, we have 16 for IN and 8 for OUT. Keep on voting people and let's see where this goes.

Chi-Town 09-04-2014 07:29 AM

No way! The sob deliberately spiked Ernie Banks back in '67.

rirlam 09-04-2014 07:32 AM

Pete Rose In or Out?
 
In - right after shoeless Joe Jackson.

2BNTV 09-04-2014 07:39 AM

In. What he did was paid for many times over as I don't think in his particular case, it should be a lifetime ban. He didn't cheat the game, as some who use PED's did. He always gave his all on the field.

Although, I don't condone his gambling and his lifestyle, he should let back in as he is the all-time hits leader, unless Iricho Suzsuki passes him in the next year or so.

Taltarzac725 09-04-2014 07:41 AM

In but after death and then not until a particular amount of more time. Shoeless Joe too but he deserves to be in now.

Xavier 09-04-2014 07:42 AM

Pete Rose, now there is a ball player! IN, with a notation.

Isn't it odd how many can't wait for someone else to fail and fall from grace. What's so bad in finding and celebrating the good (greatness) in the world?

If you want to save the purity of Cooperstown keep him out.

If you suggest gambling shouldn't keep you out of Hall of Fame (Horning, Karras in NFL) then vote him in.

The choice is yours.

Now what are we going to do about the steroid users (have a room around the back of the Hall)?

Bobcuse 09-04-2014 09:17 AM

In. Nobody thinks his gambling was anything but stupidity but his work ethic and skills as a player earned him a place. There is no place for personal grudges in baseball and that's all this amounts to.

justjim 09-04-2014 09:29 AM

What Pete got caught doing had nothing to do with his baseball skills. Those improving their skills with drugs out. Pete Rose in.

Allegiance 09-04-2014 10:14 AM

Had he been a thug, drug user, wife beater he would be in. He unfortunately had a gambling disease and baseball commissioner that was a thug. He should be IN IN IN!

cybrgeezer 09-04-2014 11:19 AM

This lifelong Cardinals fan says IN; the Hall is for recognizing talent ON the field.

Indydealmaker 09-04-2014 11:30 AM

IN
Not even murderers get a lifetime sentence (usually).

John_W 09-04-2014 01:01 PM

IN - I believe he only bet when he was a manager and not a player. He was not known as a great manager but a great player. Had he never managed he would be in the hall of fame today. From my understanding, when he did bet as a manager on his own team, it was always for his team to win.

zonerboy 09-04-2014 03:13 PM

In! He has paid for his mistakes many times over.

Cedwards38 09-04-2014 03:30 PM

We are now at 27 for IN and 9 for OUT.
