Why not just throw all of the rules out and let any pro player do any drugs they want and cheat to fix the outcome of the game. Pro sports have rules and the players do not get to pick and choose the ones they want to follow without there being consequences. I know that others have done what Rose did and he just was not even good enough at it to not get caught.If the hall were completly based only on skill then he would be there but it is also based on following certain rules that are there for all players.

If I had the opportunity to take my son to see Pete Rose, we would go to Burger King, instead. With Rose, you know what you are getting into. Parents have responsibilities to investigate.
