Pete Rose is the best player in the history of the game. 

As to the JB/Dillon debate, Between 1968 and 2005 there was one player who was active during that time who had 30 TDs rushing and 30 TDs Catching. Marshall Faulk joined the club in 2005 

I can be the hit king if I play 50 years too, especially if I hit 9 million singles

He's not even a top 3 Red:

1. Larkin
2. Bench
3. Robinson

Hell, Votto has a case now at this point in his career.

And no, I don't drink because of my cancer and nobody up here whom I associate with, has ever been intellectuallly-capable of discussing the sport of baseball with me; I was talking about (AND fully understanding) runs created and other sabermetrics when I was 9 years old. I played Fantasy Baseball for the first time, in 1999, when I turned 10. When I watch 8 Men Out, I feel the baseball scenes and dialogue in my soul.

It's why when it comes to football, I'm much more-willing to step back and compromise my opinion, because I may not be as well-versed...

... But if you think Pete Rose is anything better than a top 40 player in league history, you're the biggest Homer that ever homed.

I can argue this until one of us dies: you will NEVER be right.

And I've got facts and stats to back it up, not feelings and nostalgia.
