      Hard for my brain to process Pete Rose being older than Bernie Sanders.

      One of my favorite Pete Rose facts: in 1961, playing at age 20 in a Class D Florida State League full of huge ballparks (lg ldr in HR hit 12), he hit 30 triples in 130 games. The number 2 guy in the league hit 12, That's hustle.

      We know more now than we did then about the gambling & Pete Rose's other vices & sins, but I stand by this view of his Hall of Fame case that I wrote 20 years ago http://baseballcrank.com/archives2/2000/06/baseball_shoele.php …

          if having no vices/sins is a HOF condition, it would be a rather empty place

          Re Jackson, if he was illiterate how could he legitimately sign a confession? You put a lot of stock in it, but that seems suspect.

          Rose is a legit, Greek tragedy.

          If he'd actually always bet on his team to win, I'd consider it. But the times he didn't bet on them reveal a pattern.

          Nice read. Pete should be in the Hall.

          An absolute farce Rose isn't in the Hall. If I was him, I'd make it plain I absolutely forbid being included posthumously. If that's possible.
