Pete Rose And Shoeless Joe Jackson Removed From Ineligible List

Pete should have been put in the minute after the league started making money off sports betting. He should have been put in immediately. I get why he wasn't, he clearly broke the rules, but it should have been done.

IDK about shoeless Joe, because what he was accused of, was an order of magnitude worse than Pete. Voters also need to stop fukking around with bonds. They already showed their ass with Ortiz.

Nah.

He was aware and was given money to participate in the fix. Thing is, when you look at his numbers, you damned sure couldn’t tell he was in on it. By far the best player in the series…even setting a World Series record for hits that stood 60 plus years.

I think the jacked up part is that they were all acquitted of any wrongdoing…..only to get lifetime bans anyway.

His play is what makes me think he wasn't aware, or alternatively took the money but planned on trying to win anyway, and was just scamming the scammer.
Dude hit a homerun during that world series, and had zero errors thats not a person trying tank

Bonds not being in the HOF is one of the biggest jokes in sports.

Man put Bonds Manny Arod Sosa Mcguire all in the HOF. There's already numerous players in the HOF who were on steroids

I think gambling is worse than steroids. You can literally alter the outcome of the game.

You can take all the steroids but you still gotta make contact with the ball. Pitchers still gotta locate.

The Astros cheating was worse than steroids too. You can do anything in baseball if you know what pitch is coming

I think he and “Buck” Weaver were the only two of the eight that got banned that legitimately played on the level. “Buck” didn’t even take money and still got banned for just knowing about it. Curious if he’ll get HOF consideration too.
