A Rose by Any Other Name



Now that Pete Rose has admitted he gambled while manger of the Reds, will he be allowed back into baseball? Considering OJ Simpson is still in the Football Hall of Fame, I don't see any argument why Rose shouldn't be in Cooperstown. But what Rose really wants is to manage in the majorsagain, and that's not going to happen. He's still a gambler, as he is a regular in Vegas and at off track betting elsewhere. There's too great a chance he'll go right back to betting on--or worse, against, whatever team he's managing. if Rose gets reinstated into the business side of baseball, i'll eat my Atlanta Braves hat.
