Default Does Rose Have A Valid Point?

Rose is asking for reinstatement based on the fact that cheaters are no longer receiving lifetime bans. Does he have a valid point?

I think the Astros players got off too easy but I put gambling on baseball and sign stealing as 2 completely different things.

Yes he has a valid point. Sign stealing with technology to cheat in game is way worse than gambling on a game. In this case the players themselves were cheating and directly affected the outcome of the games. Rose may have managed a little different on games he gambled on, but he was not playing and directly changing the game. Either Rose's ban should be lifted or the Astros players should be severely punished to match Rose.

I wouldn't even ask to be put in the HOF if I were him. This guy gets discussed every year the HOF talks come up. People already treat him as a HOF'er so why bother. He is talked about every year, pretty much more popular than most that are in the HOF. Enjoy the attention.
