July 31, 201313 yr Let's say Pete Rose is reinstated today. Does he ever get into the HOF? It seems most cry for Selig to let it go and reinstate him so he can be in the HOF. However listening to Mike and Mike this morning, Tim Kirchen basically said he wouldn't be voted in. The more I think about he's probably right.
July 31, 201313 yr I would hope he would but people sometimes have long memories when it comes to their HOF vote.
July 31, 201313 yr No, should never be reinstated, should not be in HOF, should never be allowed in a baseball stadium, should not be allowed to associate with anything baseball, period.
July 31, 201313 yr If he's reinstated, the voters don't have a hair on their scrotum if they don't vote him in because of some prejudice. They vote on baseball merit, not quality of citizen.
July 31, 201313 yr He'll never get in while he is alive IMO. Maybe after he passes away he would be reinstated and the veterans committee could vote him in. No way the Elitist Snobs of the BBWAA ever vote him in. IMO Pete "The Player" deserve to be in. Pete Rose has served almost 24 years of a life time ban...almost 288 months Average Murderer is eligible for parole in 215 months...
July 31, 201313 yr If he's reinstated, the voters don't have a hair on their scrotum if they don't vote him in because of some prejudice. They vote on baseball merit, not quality of citizen. They've never voted on merit, why should they start for him?
July 31, 201313 yr They've never voted on merit, why should they start for him? Your right, baseball writers are a joke as a whole when it comes to HoF voting. Nice guys get in that may no deserve to get in and others that have the numbers barely squeak in because they weren't writer friendly.
July 31, 201313 yr They've never voted on merit, why should they start for him?Come on. You can be argumentative all you want, he deserves in on his baseball accomplishments. I agree about the committee. I think they should revamp the whole system.
July 31, 201313 yr Come on. You can be argumentative all you want, he deserves in on his baseball accomplishments. I agree about the committee. I think they should revamp the whole system. What the hell are you talking about? You said they vote on merit, and they don't. I never said anything about anything else.
July 31, 201313 yr What the hell are you talking about? You said they vote on merit, and they don't. I never said anything about anything else. I misunderstood you then. Do you think his baseball accomplishments deserve the HOF?
July 31, 201313 yr I always wondered why the HOF can't just put him in. Are they actually affiliated with MLB?
July 31, 201313 yr I misunderstood you then. Do you think his baseball accomplishments deserve the HOF? Yes, but I don't think he deserves to live to see the day that it happens. Also, don't see how they can put him in, and not guys like Bonds, Clemens, Palmerio, ARod, etc. FWIW, I think all those guys on baseball accomplishments and merit deserve to be in.
July 31, 201313 yr Yes, but I don't think he deserves to live to see the day that it happens.

Their accomplishments were aided...
