Roxpert,
"Voting shall be based upon the player's record, playing ability, integrity, sportsmanship, character, and contributions to the team(s) on which the player played."
And using that rule, please explain to me why Pete Rose is being kept out as a PLAYER.
The offenses against him, are from his being a Manager, and I would agree with your premise that he should be kept out of the HOF for the things he did after his PLAYING career, but aren't the Managers in a separate wing of the Hall than the players?
As I said, he should be put in for his career as a Player, with the acknowledgement that his post-player career was less than acceptable for admittance.
Can somone please PM me on how to use quotes. I'm an idiot and can't figure it out...
