Pete Rose belongs in the MLB Hall of Fame. Its a travesty
He bet on his own team to win. What’s the big fucking deal. MLB is run by a bunch of fucking morons…
The gambling was his original sin. But lying about it and denying it for 15 years was the aggravating factor. It’s the coverup that gets you every single time.
And now they use AI to lazily write articles… we may never have true journalism again.
Why didn’t he just bang on garbage cans, is he stupid?
And yet now, MLB owners are on the receiving end of around $500 million a year in “fantasy sports” (i.e. gambling) revenues.
All I’m saying is its a travesty….he was so good. Peace out
So just remember Barry rose never gambled on his own games he was a part of. Ohtani about to get a huge pass
