Pete Rose was in the news again today - something about income tax problems. You know, I never fully understood the betting thing. If he bet against his team, then he should be hung - by them. But if he bet FOR his team, I don't understand why that's such a bad thing. It's just putting your money where your boosterism is. Why is there a rule against it? It almost implies that the baseball folks are afraid somebody will trade on inside information about fixes! Can't think of, and haven't heard of, any other reason to forbid it. Doesn't look good.
