''Future''......?????? You have seen the future? You can guaarantee that there will be no more wagering issues in MLB.
TY COBB was a GRADE ''A'' bigot & racist.
And SAMUELsosa....
Cobb was ''The Bastard of all bastards''. Ty Cobb was likely the worst man to ever play the game of baseball. Maybe it ran in the family: His mother, in what was called an accident, shot his father in the face twice with a shotgun as he spied through a closed window, trying to find out if she was cheating on him. A few days later Ty Cobb joined the major leagues with the Detroit Tigers.
Georgia-native Cobb was immediately hated by his mostly-Northern teammates. A racist, a bigot, and a thug, Cobb slept with a loaded revolver beneath his pillow in case his teammates tried to beat him up in the night.
So......what's your take on Mr. Cobb?

Completely disagree with your take on the "cardinal rule"....
All my years of playing sports and coaching, not once have I heard from a coach, team, organization or comittee - that there is absolutely no wagering on games. I have heard that we will not cheat, we will not fight, we will respect the other teams, we will have good sportsmanship and play hard, we will be graceful in a win, and not shameful in a loss.
Nothing about wagering - and there is no way in hell that that could be the cardinal rule. 
The man is Hall worthy and should be Hall bound.
