Not for the gambling. Other charges were brought against him for tax evasion etc.

Yup. Hence his ineligibility for the HoF.

That led to his permanent ineligibility for entry into the Hall of Fame.

Pete Rose was a great player and manager. He was found to have made a large number of bets on his team (possibly against them, as well as for them) when he was Manager of the Reds. That was illegal at the time and is illegal now (Rule 21) as it is in many, if not all, professional sports.

I think I’ve bumped into these guys too… Quadrella coronata, possibly, in Lembeh, Indonesia

From 2007. Probably the last time we were in Tanzania.

Not seen him for ages. He’s just released a watch, I think.
