RIP Pete Rose

Pete Rose died at 83 yesterday banished from baseball and the BBHOF supposedly forever..

Charlie Hustle deserved to be in the HOF.

Sure he bet on baseball but he swore he never bet on his own team as a player and a manager.

Nobody gets lifetime bans anymore for gambling and now he is dead and its sad a guy on my Mount Rushmore of Baseball will never see his bust in the HOF.

My Mount Rushmore of baseball in no particular order.

Pete Rose

Dave Stieb

Nolan Ryan

Tom Seaver

Cal Ripken Sr

Here's to Pete. He was a hell of a player. Myself, being a Tiger fan put him with the likes of Al Kaline.

All of the bs in sports these days including gambling sponsoring games, shows total hypocrisy by mlb and the hof.

A career with record stats of Pete Rose being banned is a crying shame.

Rest in Peace, Pete. To hell with the hof....

We all know you deserve acknowledgement for how well you played baseball....old school, hard nosed baseball that we don't see anymore.
