In response to "Worst mistake of Selig's tenure if he does this." by Will Hunting

nah, his worst mistake would be not reinstating Rose, but allowing a 'roider into the Hall.

reinstating Rose would be a close second.

Baseball history has dozens of guys who looked to gain a performance edge....openly gambling = violating Rule #1. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 27, 05:55 6
- *shrug* Personally, I put more emphasis on rule-breaking that actually impacts the outcome of a game. -- nm - znufrii Jul 27, 06:02 5
  - Right, ultimately what he did didn't affect the game itself. -- nm - Ender Jul 27, 06:04 4
    - At least, there's no evidence that it did. -- nm - znufrii Jul 27, 06:07 2
      - And no suggestion that it did either. The bookie wasn't exactly Rose's friend when he ratted on him yet there was no suggestion he bet against the team. -- nm - Ender Jul 27, 06:13 1
        
        And I can't imagine that if he had colluded with other teams it wouldn't have come out by now. -- nm - znufrii Jul 27, 06:14
    - Really? That's a rather bold statement. -- nm - Don Homer Jul 27, 06:06
