Probably. But the thing is people are so quick now to say "Well rose wasn't that bad". If the gambling problems had come out after the steroid era then everybody would he crucifying pete Rose like they are with the steroid users. Many of them used them at a time when it wasn't even illegal in baseball yet. So that's why I hate it when people say what he did wasn't as bad. People say that because it's almost already forgot the by many fans. If it was of recent memory people would have that same outlook. Also, the notion that he's a top 10 hitter of all time is ridiculous imo. He was a compiler. Still a great player that's hof worthy but if he played with the Yankees he'd automatically still be getting killed by the media today and would be viewed as overrated.
