Pete Rose asks for reinstatement again

[SBR Drew]

Pete Rose again asked Major League Baseball to end his lifetime ban, saying the penalty is unfair compared with discipline for steroids use and electronic sign stealing.

Rose agreed to the lifetime ban in August 1989 after an investigation for MLB .

Rose also referenced Manfred’s decision on Jan. 13 to suspend Houston Manager AJ Hinch and GM Jeff Luhnow for one season for their role in the Astros’ use of electronics to steal catchers’ signs in 2017 and 2018 but to not discipline players.

He deserves to be in

Mr Baseball

[lakerboy]

It's an absolute disgrace that he isn't in.

[Purduekev]

They will wait until he is dead to let him in.

[KVB]

Fuk the selfish prick.

Guy thinks it's about him when there's a much bigger picture.

A baseball manager betting on games.

Fuk him.

He should be in the Hall of Fame...and that's how it should remain...he should be in, but he isn't because he was banned, legitimately, from baseball.

[JMobile]

Put Rose back in it. If guys that used Roids are getting HOF ballots, Rose shouldn't be banned from MLB or the HOF.

[SamsNCharge99]

Hes a HOF

[Hman]

Put him in

[Sam Odom]

[BigJay]

It’s not the Hall of Fukking Morality, it’s the Hall of Fame.

Guys that did a lot worse are already in or have had their chance to get in

[kidcudi92]

They will wait until he is dead to let him in.

They don't want to let him have anything come his way because of him finally going into the HOF



Most real baseball fans want him in

[cincinnatikid513]

bonds should be in before this guy

[homie1975]

Fuk the selfish prick.

Exactly.

It was very clear. If u bet on games u are out.

If u bet against your team it changes the way u manage.

If u bet on your team it changes the way u manage.

This is 1000% obvious and true.

Pete stay out. Idiot.

[homie1975]

Long live A Bartlett Giamatti

[Otters27]

Let him in. Sports betting is Legal. Guys that are celebrated have done far worse

[kidcudi92]

[nyplayer33]

Committed a huge no no...doubt a commissioner willing to endure all the questions and stigma if he did put him in. He wont get in...u r then allowing betting

[Chi_archie]

who cares?

how many people actually go to the hall of fame in person anymore?

you want to celebrate Pete Roses's career? go look at youtube clips, and read his baseball reference #'s, make a post about his exploits on some philly or reds baseball forums

its not like we don't know how good he was without a damn plaque or bust

[chico2663]

fukk pete rose. He is a scumbag. If i ever make it to a bash...I can tell you about the many wrongs this p.o.s. did. There is a reason johnny bench has nothing to do with him. There is a reason that fawn has nothing to do with him. Also there is a reason his siblings didn't attend his wedding.


I will tell you a true story about him. His porsche was being worked on in cheviot,ohio. He walks into a bar and says give everyone a drink. He gets ready to leave without paying for the drink. gunny (the guy that owned the bar) says hey you didn't pay for that round. Pete says you don't expect me to pay for it. He proceeds to write a check and tells the guy to NOT cash the check because his autograph because it will be worth more. I have at least 5 other story about this p.o.s.

[chico2663]

Ask yourself this...Why did pete rose have to go to buffalo to find a bookie? because he stiffed everyone in the tri state.

[chico2663]

Committed a huge no no...doubt a commissioner willing to endure all the questions and stigma if he did put him in. He wont get in...u r then allowing betting

i think they will put him in after his death. that way he can't sell his auto for more

[chico2663]

Exactly.

It was very clear. If u bet on games u are out.

If u bet against your team it changes the way u manage.

If u bet on your team it changes the way u manage.

Pete stay out. Idiot.

if you get to go into a clubhouse they have it on the wall.

MLB sends MGM the lineups exclusively for gambling purposes, and profits from it.

HYPOCRISY

Guy should be on the ballot, let the committee decide.

The problem with pete is he was in management when this happened. He was offered 4 times to settle up but he thought he was bigger than the situation. The allegedly 275,000 cost him millions. Hell his lawyer reuben katz cost him more than that.

[JIBBBY]

He deserves to get back on the inside again and then bet on MLB.. He's done his time.. Get after it Petey!!!

[SBR_Guest_Pro]

Let him in!

[MinnesotaFats]

MLB has a for profit relationship with gambling now.

Let the committee decide Pete's fate, gambling, like pot smoking, has become mainstream.

Burleigh Grimes is in the HOF for throwing spitballs. They're illegal now. Darryl Strawberry isn't banned from anything but he's a cokehead....Bonds and Clemens are on the ballots....

[mrpapageorgio]

If they won't even ban players/management from baseball for the cheating scandals that have happened recently, then they need to put Pete back in. What he did didn't affect the outcome of a World Series.

[sweethook]

hardest thing to do in pro sports is hit a mlb fastball . pete as more hits than anyone , if petes not in the HOF there is no HOF. hell the nfl as murders in there racist fame

[jjgold]

Pete did nothing wrong

[agendaman]

he bet on his own baseball team-neith rose nor bonds nor m.mcguire will ever get in

[homie1975]

Pete sit the fukk down. Nobody cares about the loser

[Chi_archie]

Let Joe Jackson in but fuk Pete rose

[BarkingToad]

Let Joe Jackson in but fuk Pete rose

Exactly! Rose was a drug trafficker. All the people he hung out with at that time went to jail for dealing drugs. Sounds better to not be in the HOF for betting on your own team than being a drug dealer as manager of the Reds.

Well 1- Pete might be right about the autographs value vs the drink value

2- very few "celebrity" personalities ever pay for anything because they are taught their presence in an establishment is worth the tab

Hell, once in MPLS at Mannys I saw Bud Grant and Sid Hartman sit w the check between them for 2.5 hours waiting for the other to pick it up. Funniest thing I ever saw- 2 cheap ass 85 year old men who thought their shit didn't stink playing a game of chicken w the tab lol

You think JLo pays for meals in Miami? Manning in NYC? Elway in Den or Ortiz in Boston?

No, they don't.

It's just how it is. Cekebs and athletes probably get more in comped food and drink then most families earn income wise per year.
