Well, I have to agree with you there, diehard! Its amazing how all we heard was that baseball should let Pete in the Hall. Now that their actually , for the first time, looking in to doing that, everyone is putting out hurtful stuff. I'll admit alot of it has me re-thinking things, myself. But,  I believe Pete should be in the hall for his accomplishments on the field. He was the greatest hitter and should be recognized for that. I can't help but wonder why, after 13 years, that Pete hasn't really straightened up his life.  You would think that he would have worked diligently to get away from the things that are oviously hurtful to this situation. But, I guess Pete is just being Pete. You have to love him anyway!!

Isn't it ironic that all this is coming out now when he is so close to
reinstatement?  I mean where was all this talk when he had a snow balls
chance in hell of getting into the Hall?  This sounds more like his enemies
conspiring against him.  Him getting into the hall should be about what he
did on the field and not his debts or activities off it.  None of that has
anything to do with him being the greatest hitter to play the game.

Car dealer out $12,000, writes letter against reinstatement

The Cincinnati Enquirer


Pete Rose has been hit with multiple court judgments and tax liens since
being banned from baseball in 1989, and the parties who are owed money in
these cases have yet to be paid by the game's all-time hits leader.
