Maybe if Hall of Fame recipients get anything of value, ole Petey could pawn it off to raise funds for his son's legal defense on recent drug charges

The Onion had a great story on that - "Pete Rose Jr. somehow finds way to disgrace family name."

Makes you wonder how involved he was in his son's life.
Son: Dad, let's play catch.
Pete: In a minute, I've got 5g's on this playoff.

I wonder what George Will's take on it is.

I bet that as long as Pete is alive, he won't get in. For Selig to do otherwise, would mean that kid's could grow up thinking it was okay to gamble in the pro's, and still enjoy the fruits of being in the Hall of Fame.
