Pete Rose dead at 83
Nobody played the game harder.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

The MLB HOF administration, at least those responsible, should be shamed and harassed for the rest of THEIR lives.
It's hardly a choir boy collective in there, keeping him out was petulant and truly hateful.

I saw him about 15 years ago in a Caesar's Palace Shops sports memorabilia store signing autographs as my wife and I were walking by, so I just stopped outside to check out the scene for a few minutes. He was about as cantankerous and dismissive a person as I've ever seen signing autographs. Was getting something like $75 a pop. Gross.
I saw a documentary that was shot in his later years and noticed the same thing about his demeanor, I was wondering if he was developing some sort of mental issue like dementia, he used to really care about his image and would at times cheese it up so much it was like cartoon fake, but his total lack of give a fuck just wasnt the real him. ( I saw the same in my Dad as his dementia took hold and eventually ate him )
