PETE, he sould be in the HOF
Pete would be in the HoF if he wasn't such an arrogant prick. He lied about betting on baseball for years. If he had admitted it and then shown some remorse, he would be signing those autographs with "HoF".
Instead, he lied and lied and lied. Then, when he did tell the truth, he did it for money (he admitted it in a book after he got a fee). Because of his arrogance, the powers-that-be in baseball will let him in only after he has passed away.
