The gambling and the ego are not unique to Rose alone. I dare say a few others in the HOF have similar problems, they just weren't caught. And as corrupt as is that group of owners, it's all a pretty sorry story. Give the man his due for playing some good games.

And this from a non-sports-fan. I don't watch baseball. (I do listen to Frank DeFord once in a while, and Stefan Fatsus (sp?) on NPR.)
