The legality/illegality of his gambling didn't factor into it. ALL major sports prohibit betting on your own sport. He was free to bet the ponies or whatever his addiction wanted. Banned for life AND death, and he's a POS who deserves it.

I live in Cincinnati from 1975-85 when Pete played on the Big Red Machine team. He was liked by all the fans and never refused to sign an autograph. I have several that he signed for me. Pete was in a federal prison in Marion, IL close to where I grew up. A lot of prisoners from Alcatraz were sent to Marion when it closed. Pete should be in HOF.
