I say yes also...
Betting on the game, especially when you are the manager of a team, is dead wrong. He should have come clean when he was caught. But I agree that alone shouldn't keep hiim out. Considering he holds a record no one will ever beat, and the fact there are folks in the Hall that have done worse, it shouldn't be such an issue. Ty Cobb was an outspoken racist and most likely a murderer. One day when a black groundskeeper tried to
shake his hand, Cobb slapped him, chased him into the dugout and then tried to strangle the man's wife when she came to his aid. He was also involved in a gambling scandel, where he was going to bet $2000 and throw the game, but didn't come up with the cash in time.
