In this episode of Missing the Point, we honor the life and legacy of baseball icon Pete Rose, who passed away today at the age of 83. Known as the all-time hits leader, Rose transcended generations with his incredible on-field achievements and relentless hustle, earning the nickname "Charlie Hustle."
Despite his unmatched contributions to the game, Rose remains excluded from the Baseball Hall of Fame due to his gambling controversy. We discuss the irony of this ban in the era of legalized sports betting and how it’s time for Cooperstown to recognize Rose’s legacy.
Key topics include:

The gambling controversy that kept him out of the Hall of Fame
The changing landscape of sports betting and how it impacts the Rose debate
Why Rose deserves to be inducted into Cooperstown, along with other legends like Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens

Join us as we reflect on Pete Rose's career, the ongoing debate around his Hall of Fame status, and why he should finally be enshrined in Cooperstown.
