No. I have no idea why anyone has any sympathy for a guy who not only bet on baseball and the success or failure of his own players whom he could impact, but who still couldn't come to terms with admitting that what he did was wrong for over a decade.
Since then, he has been wiggling back and forth about how much he believed in his admission, the extent of his betting behavior, and whether or not the admission was just for the sake of getting back into the game.
Its sad to see Rose now; he had every opportunity to show some sense of contrition for his actions, but he has refused responsibility at every turn, admitted and recanted and readmitted and half recanted at each turn, and has generally demonstrated why he isn't trustworthy.
A great baseball player who unfortunately thought of himself as bigger than the game. He's not, and the game should never let him back into the club.
