Free Shoeless Joe Jackson!

Did they ever allow him into the Hall of Fame? I'm glad Rose is getting another chance. He made a mistake... but he was one of the greatest ever...

Pete Rose and Major League Baseball have reached an agreement that would allow him to return to baseball in 2004, and includes no admission of wrongdoing by Rose...

If true, than this is an outrage. I am sure that every criminal would like to be allowed back into society without having to admit he ever did anything wrong. IF this is true than the front office of MLB has betrayed the game. For shame!

Rose won't even ADMIT he made a mistake. Maybe if he showed a little contrition, I'd have a different point of view, but his arrogance and inability to take responsibility for his actions, on top of what those actions were, put me in a mind to never let the guy near MLB again.

So did O.J. Granted the severity is much different, but our nation is refusing to enforce any standards at all because we feel "sorry" for the perp.

Time heals all wounds and the American sheeple will probably be embracing O.J. within the decade.
