It's only sports, thank goodness, and the kids who were susceptible to Rose's hero status saw him banned from the Hall of Fame for his dishonorable behavior. To put him in now is a gesture, an afterthought. Meaningless. Pete Rose in the Hall of Fame is an insult to those who played the game honorably. (Nolan Ryan springs to mind.)

Charlie Hustle or now 'Hustler,' was one of the most competitive guys on earth when he was playing.. and now the Lead Investigaor says there is evidence that he bet against his own team.
This really is a testimony to the destructive power of gambling.
