You actually believe he only bet to win?! After all his other lies you actually think he drew a line at ALL?! Dude. Meanwhile yes it is. That’s the only rule in the sport that’s listed as lifetime ban on the first offense. Rule posted next to the phone Pete used to break the rule. He knew the penalty, he did it anyway, too bad so sad.
I also don’t think it’s worse than what went down during the steroid-era. Barry Bonds is a member in good standing but Pete Rose isn’t? There’s something really wrong with that.
