I think this whole issue regarding Pete Rose has more to do with who he was versus what he did. Isn’t taking steroids’ cheating? How many ball players are in the Hall of Fame who juiced. Bath Ruth juiced on hot dogs and beer.
Think of “Babe Ruth”
And you think of hot dogs and beer
But if he can hit a home run, so can you,
And your weight is just nowhere near.
