Adam J. BaxterI'm not going to waste valuable Forum space griping about Rose. I was a huge Rose fan as a kid and now, especially over this last week, I feel betrayed. There have been lots of interesting opinions both for and against Rose on this board and I've enjoyed reading them. But I think no one can sum up the whole Pete Rose situation better then Grandmaster Gammons:

BTW, During this recent Rose frenzy, a lot of people have been supporting Joe Jackson for reinstatement, and I agree with them, even though he DID accept the money, But I find it interesting that nobody's been throwing any support out there for Buck Weaver for reinstatement. Wasn't he the only member of the Black Sox that didn't take the money?
