His accomplishments should be noted in the hof. He should NOT be enshrined as he was a degenerate gambler who betted on games he had an influence on- i'm sure he didn't only bet on games he managed but also in his playing days as well.

Years ago one of the big pubs, I forget which one, had a pretty intensively researched account of the whole Pete Rose saga. What really sticks out is how he kept denying and denying and denying that he bet on baseball even when they had his gambling receipts and just about all the other needed evidence to build a strong case. It really was kind of a sad story. Too bad because he had such a long great career.
Maybe something like Afterhours said, recognize the baseball accomplishment, but put an asterisk next to the name of the man. Too bad because Charlie Hustle was a guy a lot of kids looked up to for how hard he played the game.

I don't know if I buy that one. If that was him holding back, I'd hate to see what he could have accomplished if he went full tilt. |
