It is Baseball's fault (Pete Rose)

Posted By: JimB

I agree that Pete Rose is a gambling adict, but that does not excuse his responsibility for his behavior; it merely explains it. He has shown no remorse or publically declared that he has attempted to change his behavior or worked to heal his disease. If a drug addict has no intentions of stopping use of drugs, it can certainly be explained by his disease, but it does not excuse his behavior. Pete Rose does not seeem to show any remorse. The only half-hearted apology he made is that he is sorry people are so upset by his actions. So if we weren't upset, there would be no problem? HE DOES NOT GET IT! He seems almost constitutionally incapapble of being honest. But that does not mean Baseball owes him anything.
