BOOGMaster Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 Unfortunately, there is no reason Pete Rose should be in the hall of fame. Sorry to break it to you. He broke the rules! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are below average on most accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOOGMaster Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I wouldn't go that far...worse have gotten in...but he still would be borderline...if he wouldn't have lied, cheated, and broken the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJH35 Posted May 5, 2004 Author Share Posted May 5, 2004 boogsoftball, is hank aaron or ruth not worthy either then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.... Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 boogsoftball, is hank aaron or ruth not worthy either then? Babe Ruth? Are you kidding? He was worthy just on his pitching alone. The fact that he was the best player ever is secondary. Rose had Hustle, and singles. That's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threetonesun Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Yeah, Rose was never much of a player, IMO. But considering he has the hit record, and most record holders get in, he would make it into the hall. But he doesn't deserve to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOOGMaster Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Shoeless Joe Jackson deserves to be in the hall much more so than Pete Rose. YES! (and does he need shoes? I have an extra pair of cleats...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aem4162 Posted May 9, 2004 Share Posted May 9, 2004 both shoeless joe and rose deserve to be in the hof. other players have broken rules and gone in, but other than that he has the hits record and he was a great player. iirc, he played every position except catcher and pitcher in his career. he also played every game like it 2 out, bottom of the 9th, tie game, and if he dove head first into home they'd win the game. besides... i'm a reds fan, dammit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.... Posted May 9, 2004 Share Posted May 9, 2004 rose deserve to be in the hof. other players have broken rules and gone in, I'll agree shoeless needs to go in, because there was nothing proven that he had any idea about the scandal. Rose should not. Other people may have broken rules, but none to the very core of the integrity of the game. What Rose did is unforgivable, and to deny it all this time, except for the time when he writes his second autobiography....which ironically, proved his first autobiography was as factual as a Michael Moore mockumentary.

Joel Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 They should just stick to the rules, and leave him out forever. Too little, too late IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
