I don't have much objection to allowing Jackson and Rose into the HOF. I would say that the one "benefit" of the whole controversy surrounding the situation is that it keeps vintage baseball in the discussion.
I believe that someone on this board had mentioned that when the Cubs won the WS in 2016, it would more or less eliminate the talk of 1908, which in essence eliminates one more link to baseball's past history. I was somewhat skeptical at first, I've come to agree with that point of view. So while that alone should not weigh into whether or not Jackson or Rose end up in Cooperstown, I view the continued discussion and controversy around the issue as a plus for preservation of baseball history.

 I would also point out this fact ! We have a HOF in the Halls, that had a hand in this too ! He would be the cheap ass owner of the Whitesox { Charles Comiskey } ! Who would hold players out of games, so they wouldn't get a chance at there bonus ? Think it was 1 or 2 of his ace pitchers, he done this , too , I'm not sure on the players though ? Eddie Cicotte was 1 of those pitchers , who also had a fine career, how many more years did he have in his tank ? Could he also put up more HOFer stats ? I've also heard that Ty Cobb & Tris Speaker were found to be betting, years later ? Is this true ? If so, why were they NOT taken out of the HOF ?
