My feeling is if you do drugs you hurt yourself, but gambling on baseball jerks with the integrity of the game. There are many people in the Hall of Fame who did perhaps worse things but that doesn't change the fact that the rule clearly states a lifetime ban if you bet on baseball. Pete Rose knew what he was doing and if he truely didn't bet on baseball then he should've fought for his rights. Instead he accepted the agreement which banned him for life. He has no one to blame but himself. I say put him in the hall the day after he dies.
