Rose
I thought the episode of Pawn Stars (where Rick & co.) turn down an offer to buy some '67 Roses that they deemed "fake" (still unsure about this) reveal how unaware they are about his sustained popularity. Rick's son "Big Hoss" mentions and I'm paraphrasing (big-time): "Well he (Rose) could be worth quite a bit if it weren't for, you know (referring to gambling)..." Little does he realize that the $ of Rose cards have been little hurt, if not gone up, as a result of the betting scandal. In short his shortcomings did not make him the greatest hitter of all-time a better player during his playing career, a claim Bonds et al. cannot make...
