I'd vote for Jackson. Obviously he was wrong to take the money (if he really did) but I bet there are lots of other players in the hall from that era that gambled or tried to throw games but just didn't get caught. Players were paid peanuts then as the owners got filthy rich off their talents. I think 90 years of punishment is more than adequate for Joe Jackson. If they can put a despicable person like Ty Cobb in there then there's a place for Jackson too.
