A note on the Amazon ads: I've chosen to display current events titles in the Amazon box. Unfortunately, Amazon appears to promote a disproportionate number of angry-left books. I have no power over it at this time. Rest assured, I'm still a conservative.

Pete Rose and the Baseball Hall of Fame: I didn't watch the entire program, but ESPN showed "Pete Rose on Trial," a mock court to determine whether or not baseball's all-time hit leader, who gambled on baseball, should be eligible to be inducted into the Hall.
The final jury vote was 8-4 for making him eligible. (Of course, if he's eligible, he's in. He's the all-time hit leader for cryin' out loud.)
I concur to a certain extent, Rose should be eligible -- posthumously. It's only right that the man who holds the record for career hits be in the hall, if only for historical purposes. However, he shouldn't be around to enjoy it.
