I know what Pete Rose did was not allowed, how do all the performance-enhancing drug users not receive the same punishment? Either ban them all, or vice versa. There is no way the league's all-time hits leader should be left out of the Hall of Fame. I hope with a new commissioner, his ban is lifted. But I see little progress in the future.

That is written as though being the all time hits leader is all that needs to be considered. The issue has never been whether Rose played well enough to merit induction, the issue is whether or not Rose's violations of the rules should be overlooked.

Well then I never want to see Barry Bonds in the Hall of Fame either.

It does not appear that the above will be happening anytime soon. I am with you in not wishing to see Bonds, or any of the 'roid boys, enshrined.
