Baseball Hall of Fame

Pete Rose will someday be admitted into the Hall of Fame. 

You heard it first right here.  It will be because of the games best players are using drugs to enhance their performance and breaking records while doing so.  Using performance enhancing drugs is against the rules of baseball.  So is gambling.  Baseball will have to let in the players that have broken the records and the rules now because it is more than just Pete Rose.  It is a bunch of them.  It is sad that this will have to happen but in defense of Rose, his Major League accomplishments were before he bet on baseball.  His mistake was doing it while he was a part of the game.  That is why he will be admitted. 

Todays players are doing it right in front of baseball behind the players union walls that protect them.  One by one they will be exposed as long as drug testing is enforced, ala Raphael Palmeiro.  What will put them in the Hall is what they were doing before they were caught using.  Just like Rose.  What baseball will have to decide is the proper way to display their accomplishments, acknowledge their records, and whether or not to acknowledge the rule breaking that took them out of the game.  I wish good luck to baseball in deciding that one.
