I would not mind if 6 or 7 of those "voted" on above made it - as long as Donnie Baseball's one of them.


But not Pete Rose. I would not keep McGwire out for steriods, since that's was not against the rules. Gambling on baseball was, and is, and will always be. Besides, he's an @$$hat.

Gambling as a manager, not a player. No one wants to see him inducted b/c of his managerial skills.
But I'm not getting into this debate again.
