1. Oh come on...betting on the game and stealing signals aren't even close.
And spell the man's name correctly.

2. No, he was banned for cheating, for his singular benefit...
A little different, no?

4. Pete Rose was GAMBLING.

Not FILMING. God, what the fuck is your grudge with the Patriots? I gave up mine against Dallas along time ago. Man, you need to get a fucking grip, if you are comparing the Pats to Pete Rose.

And a life.

5. Oh, for Christ's sake - it's like saying "Dahmer got the chair and Craig only had to resign"
The crimes are infinitely different.

Sheesh.

6. Fucking Pete Rose apologists, always crawling out of the woodwork
If I could go back in time, I'd have urged the commissioner to simply shoot Rose in the face and tell the public that if anyone bitched he'd do it to them too. :-)

8. Ha! Dahmer did not get the chair. He was murdered in prison.
while serving 15 life terms (civilized WI doesn't have the death penalty).

And Craig hasn't had to resign yet, either.

:P

7. Gambling..especially on your own sport is the ultimate violation
The offenses are nowhere near the same.
