The problem is the concept of 'the hall of fame' itself.
Players, IMHO, should be remembered for their virtues and not a select group carved out as idols. In any sport there are players who, while they didn't have the stats, deserved to be in the hall of fame every bit as much as those who have been admitted.
So, I don't really support the notion of a 'hall of fame'.
As for Pete Rose, Barry Bonds and O.J.; stats be damned, they would never any of my lists...along with a number of others!
I disagree, completely.
There are players that embody the virtues of sports with thier dedication, acumen, and hustle.
Pete Rose is the best to have ever played baseball. He is not the best person, but the best baseball player.
I am not advocating his admission into the men of the century club.0 -

This is how strongly I feel Rose should be in the Hall. Shoff - is a name, 14 is a number I use because of Pete.
My #14 goes to A.J.Foyt0 -
OJ was inducted a long time before his troubles started.. He was also acquited of murder by a jury, even though I think he was guilty but my opinion on the matter doesnt matter..
Pete got a raw deal in my opinion but as with everything else the rules is da rules..[:0]0 -
No. Pete violated the rules (no betting) and got caught red handed.
Clear, simple.0 -
Dats wat I said, da rules is de rules.. 0 -
I'd be fine with him going in postmortem with an * . 0 -
He should have to wait as long as "Shoeless" Joe Jackson has to wait to be inducted. 0 -
Yes.

Ah, an attorney. The rules are just gray areas, and should be pushed aside as we wish.
I like the Shoeless Joe reference.0 -

As a cop I KNOW you never gave a guy a break despite the "law."
Quit the two-faced crap just because I am an attorney. I see you guys and your "gray areas" everyday.
Sell it to some kids...0 -

man, what's the deal matty. is everyone mad at u today or what?0 -
mateo.. would you go after another Attorney if you had a case against them for not handling a case properly with your new client? Just curious. Yes or No? 0 -
If they don't let Pete in then they won't have onybody else to put in in years to come with all the thugs playing now. 0 -
No.
He bet on baseball while he was managing.
If the integrity of the game is destroyed there will be no more game.
I know, I know, so and so threw spitballs, so and so shot steroids. That stuff is bad.
But nothing compares to betting on the game. Start betting on the game, and pretty soon you will start fixing games.0 -

Yes.
Attorneys who commit malpractice should be punished. We are in a position of responsibility and our efforts impact peoples lives in very big ways.
I have absolutely no sympathy for an attorney who is negligent. In a profession that historically has a black eye, we don't need any more bad publicity.

Matty...I swear you can blame the loss on me. I was rooting for the Boys until I realized that Madison Hedgecock was playing (Starting Fullback) for the Giants. He was my hero when he played at UNC for the TarHeels and his memory was a bit fresher than Greg Ellis.
Madison was a hoss on some unspectactular teams here and I grew to respect his effort. He is the kind of player you like. Tough and unassuming.
Once I started rooting for him, things went downhill for the boys.
Are ya'll gonna be able to root for the packers?0
