Pete Rose comes out with this "revelation" today that he actually did bet on baseball. Who would have ever guessed? Now we pundits and experts speculating whether he should now be allowed back into the game and possibly into the Hall of Fame. What kind of screwy logic is that? An admission of guilt should cement his banishment from the game. At least before there was some minute amount of doubt about the betting allegations. Is betting on the game not acceptable behavior. Has not Joe Jackson been banished from baseball for 84 years when there is serious doubt that he was involved in the Black Sox scandal? If I were commisioner Pete Rose would have just written his own "death" sentence.
