Rose admits to betting on Reds EVERY GAME!

It's not really a surprise to me, but what I don't understand is if you're him, why take so long to come out and admit it? You fight for this long trying to convince people you didn't do it, and then you admit to it and make yourself out to be a liar. Not to mention, if he would have admitted it from the beginning he might actually have a shot at being in the HOF. I believe he should be in based on his numbers, but I don't see how he ever gets in, in my opinion. |

I thought he had already admitted to betting, but this was just that he bet for every game.
|
Yeah, sorry holycow, didn't mean to make it sound like he was just now admitting to betting in general. I've changed the title of the thread. ;)

As much as I don't like the fact that someone bet on baseball when he was in the sport I want him to make the HOF. Has he ever said that he did it as a player?? If he didn't then he should go in as a player and only a player.

I don't know if many of you have ever watched him play. He was probably the best pure hitter that I've ever seen. The guy played the game in one mode.....HARD....no matter what the score was or what the situation was.
He was wrong for what he did but the guy was a great baseball player. |
Ok cool, I was a bit confused.
But yea, I think he should be in the HoF, he definetly has the stats to be in. And it's not like it really hurt the game. And I mean, I doubt Selig never bet on a game before. |

He is trying to get some public support so he can get reinstated. He hopes that by saying he bet on them to win, people will think he did nothing wrong, because he would do anything to help them win. I do not agree with that, but I thinl that is part of his plan to get reinstated in baseball.
