Read further vez. I’m pro Rose in the hall, but those who say he shouldn’t be in have a very powerful argument.

Rose isn’t in because he broke the one rule that is on the books that has as a consequence that you are kicked out of the game and ineligible for the Hall of Fame. And then he lied multiple times about breaking that one rule despite all evidence that he had. Kind of a different story from Cobb and steroids users.

rose’s cheating had zip to do with his performance on the field, which is what’s most important regarding integrity. to me he cheated, they cheated. if he’s not in, they shouldn;t be. and their cheating was worse, no matter what’s on the books

Lol…michael young to the phillies. Does amaro know what he is doing?

Phillies are only paying $6 million. If he is able to bounce back and provide even 1 WAR, it’s fine. It’ll help us as our 3B prospect isn’t ready yet. Amaro realizes he needs cost controlled players, hence the Revere deal. I think he’s gonna make a move for Swisher.

An actual HoF post? Of course it’s on the weekend.

And Andre Dawson is a marginal HoFer, just like Jim Rice is. Considering they’ll probably vote in Mr. 3.90 career ERA this year, they rather put shitty players in rather than all times greats.

Yes to Bonds, Clemens, Piazza, Biggio, Bagwell, Raines, Trammel, Schilling, McGwire and Lofton.

F-off unless you have evidence, scripty.

That’s a little different from being shitty towards certain races. You can honor a player’s achievements on the field while not endorsing their personal choices.

I’m pro-Rose in the Hall just for the record.

He may have been a horrible person but that didn’t improve his ability to play the game

Ah, I get what you’re saying but you garbled that point a little bit. No rule in baseball says you can’t murder a guy, am I right? At least there’s no rule against it when you’re away from the field.

Sharpening his spikes

Yes stark it does. That’s why I said he should go with that angle instead of “Ty Cobb was a bad person”.

He may have been a horrible person but that didn’t improve his ability to play the game, as steroids probably did for users of them.

Sharpening his spikes to keep from getting tagged out didn’t help him steal all those bases?

Ou812…how do you explain rose not being in then?

By: ms621

ms621 — Sat, 08 Dec 2012 22:54:52 +0000

If you want to use the Ty Cobb angle you might want go with the fact that he sharpened his spikes to scare fielders from trying to tag him out. He may have been a horrible person but that didn’t improve his ability to play the game, as steroids probably did for users of them.
