One way or another the 2017 Houston Astros will always be labeled Cheaters.
Bang that Trash Can!

Alex Cora just got fired. He was the 'Astros  bench coach in 2017. So the Sox 2018 title is now tainted.

As a Nats fan, I'm glad my team did it the right way

They cheated the game. Look at the insanely harsh way MLB dealt with Pete Rose over the decades and there was no finding he cheated the game.

I agree, vacated and give the rings back.  As far as Pete Rose, I grew up idolizing him.  He didn't cheat per say but he gambled on the team he managed.  

You wouldn't say that about a drug or alcohol problem would you? And did he bet as a player? I don't know I am asking.

and that would be if it ever came out that he bet against his own team. But Pete Rose was a competitor much more than he was in it for the money. Pete Rose did indeed bet on Reds games, but he bet ON his own team, not against it.  With all the rather miserable human beings in the HOF, people like Ted Williams for example, or even Babe Ruth who wouldn't last a single season in our current PC climate, I think it's a travesty that Pete Rose is not in the HOF.

I remember you being all bent over him betting on his team. Even a chink can think things through. But it's "Charlie Hustle" not "Mister" Hustle. I know how those small things are so important to you lately. lol

I was NEVER "all bent" over him betting on his team. I would only have been all bent if he had ever bet AGAINST his own team, something that not only never happened, but it's never even been alleged that he did so.

but I guess I should do it publicly too before nick jizzes all over himself.

Boo! Cheating Astros!
