    I’m a Dodgers fan, so I always hated him. I respected the shit out of him because the dude could play baseball. There is no question that he was one of the greatest players ever. No question.

    You can’t bet on a sport, though, in which you have a material influence. Player, manager, coach, front office.

    Betting on games is the death of the sport. You can’t do it. You just cannot do it.

    After you retire, and you are gone, then nobody cares. But betting on games while you are in any way involved is just never going to be okay.

    Now… I dunno. Based on his career, Pete Rose is a slam dunk HOF. He has the most hits of anybody ever in the history of the game. I mean….

    But dammit. You cannot compromise the entire enchilada like that. I don’t know. But…damn. You just cannot do that.
