“Pete Rose is Still Angry at the Reds” and he is still wearing a Reds hat. Legend
Pissed at the league and the Reds office but not the players and coaches.
Title should be Pete Rose still angry at Baseball not the Reds. Him not being allowed the Game & Team is the MLB not the Reds.
Bill Stephens Exactly. If the Reds were allowed to have him in the clubhouse they would trust me
MomanSLM Don't put the Reds office into this. They have NOTHING to do with it! it's all MLB
ThePowerStacks if I'm not mistaken until Manfred became commissioner, the Reds were not even permitted to officially retire his number or induct him into their own Hall of Fame. (They unofficially didn't issue his number 14 except briefly to his son when he had the stint in the majors, but were barred from officially recognizing him in that way.) I think Manfred eased some of those restrictions but stopped short of actually reinstating Rose. Though he did, at the same time as he officially denied Rose's reinstatement request, also suggest that he believes the Hall of Fame is a separate question and implied that he doesn't necessarily agree that the Hall shouldn't be able to at least put him on the ballot. But that's actually a decision over which the Hall of Fame has its own discretion.
One of the best hitters and all around players in history, now baseball's whipping boy.
Is this the same John Curry that works at Sanderson Farms????
John Curry
He fucking well EARNED his whipping boy status.
Probably is the best hitter. He's up there.
100% self inflicted.
He is the same as Shoeless Joe. He should have been banned from all Cincinnati events. The Reds screwed up by retiring his number in the first place...he was banned for life from baseball.
Whats more sad is that hes banned from the stadium
dbag0584 what are you dumb
@@samw2431 he admitted to sleeping with girls who he thought were as young as 16 while married and in his 30s. Some of the girls were allegedly as young as 14. When he was confronted about it he said they told him they were 16. He's a gross pig.
vashthestampede11 i have never heard of that
Why is that sad? He broke the one infallible rule of the game. So why shouldn't he be band? He lied, cheated, and gambled. Obviously you tell your kids it is OK to do those things. Rules are for chumps and assholes, son. Just don't get caught. Fuck him. He has never admitted wrong, and is a fucking go-nad.
@@jamesoconnor3562 Yea and how many did drug and roids and still played the game horseshit on infallible rules my ass!
I was honored to meet him when he came into Lids to buy a reds hat. He talked to our store employees for more than 30 mins, just shooting the shit.
No one says he isn't a pleasant, voluble little rascal who is sort of an autistic savant about hitting fast-moving baseballs. And living on speed.
But he duck fupped the game and I want it written on his gravestone, along with the main big-time juicers. Phooey.
So you were honored to be around a cheater? Kind of sums up your life huh? Nuff said.
@Dmb596 4 years later, good job mate.
He never cheated. Shows how much you know about the situation lol.
Maybe take the next four years to reflect on your ignorance.
Pete Rose could STILL hit a 2 out bases loaded single (at 78 years old) Hard nosed a player as ever was .
LOL.....Suuuuure he could 😁😁
He will never accept the fact that it is ENTIRELY of his own doing. And reading below, it is obvious that you tell your children it is OK to break the rules. Those other guys? Their fools, fuck them. Just don't get caught, and if you do blame someone else. Rules are for chumps, do what you want to, and screw the rules. He was a great hitter. Great fielder. Played his ass off. And broke the cardinal rule of baseball. And all I read below is he's a whipping boy, he got hosed, everyone does it, he should be in the hall of fame. Is that what you tell your kids? He was the greatest, he belongs in the HOF, fuck the rules.
James O'Connor I bet your one of the one of the people that thinks Bonds should be in the hall though
@James O'Connor my comment was made out of respect for his accomplishments , I guess he was the only one to ever do this , No , he got caught , I suppose you would fess right up if that was you ?? Sure you would . I just love the commentary from all the self proclaimed experts . It’s easy to judge others , I’m sure you know that . His accomplishments stand alone , I suppose Barry Bonds , Mark McGuire , etc are good role models ? Yes , he did in my opinion bet on baseball , but his accomplishments still stand . Were all human .
@@robertsr.249 Well said Brother! Pete may not be the best person ever. But damn the man loves baseball and he is the very deffination of how the game should be played. MLB is a Joke the Reds is a joke of an organization for they way they treat Mr. Rose.
Sat down with Pete one on one for about 1/2 last year and just talked baseball. The guy is so honest and down to earth... an old school gentleman.

MLB is in the CASH$$$$ lane! Lot of smart guys in the MLB who should cut the sanctimony and let Pete on the field, in the dugout, and in spring training. The man is baseball. Baseball ain't baseball without Pete Rose.
Just because Pete Rose says it doesn't mean it's true. He lied about gambling on baseball games
@@stevegoehring1610 Just because he says what?
@@MrFrinZy anything. The fact that people actually believe anything he has to say at all is unbelievable to me. This man has been caught lying so many times I've lost count.
Pete is in the Hall of Fame of my memories.
Combat Medic all he needed to do was admit his gambling incident and he’d be in the HOF
Well said>>>>
This guy wants to help young players WTF are the Reds thinking.
Why would u want a 78 year old delusional blow hard in your clubhouse?
He's banned because he constantly lied for decades and now is spiteful. Great player but full of excuses and not an accountable man. Kinda sad
Nightrain76 it’s not the reds decision. The MLB says he can’t go on the field.
Carl Spackler Because at 78, he can still out hit anyone on a major league roster

@@tacotom3492 who cares. Everyone lies. Some cheat. Some do both, yet they're still Abe to be coaches in the league. Foh with your crying.
Pete looks like he could go out and bat .300
I could listen to this guy everyday. More interesting than listening to those stations on TV and radio.
Pete is the most knowledgeable ex player about the game of baseball. Met him in Vegas and he's awesome to chat with just like he states here.
>>is the most knowledgeable ex player
Phooey.
Jerry Remy, alive and working in Baseball(TM) during the same period. ANY day of the week and TWICE for the Sunday double-header. Not just because I'm from Boston: there are very good reasons he worked FOR DECADES doing TV baseball "game commentary" (as in useful game and specific player details, not stupid Bovine Sewage).
H E double toothpicks, I'd even almost take having to put up with Howard Cosell again if it meant I didn't have to listen to that speedfreak degenerate gambling serial liar. Remember: Giamatti tried to "let him up gently": turns out That Man had LIED to The Commish and was STILL LYING AFTERWARDS.
Redemption requires true acceptance, about which as regards the specific reprobate in question I end

Go RemDawg Go.
What he is awesome at is cheating.
Listen to him. 78 years old, and talks about his stats.
John Bandera he sounds amazing for his age
Damn right
Put the Hall of Fame vote to the people to see how they feel about Rose. He'd be in the Hall of Fame tomorrow if it was up to the fans
As usual, Pete Rose is a legend it speaks nothing but the truth when it comes to baseball. You got to love this guy
Pete understands about the hall of fame but not getting to coach up the players sucks. That is what a lot of these all time greats care about the most. I dont see the harm in that.
He will never accept the fact that it is ENTIRELY of his own doing. And reading below, it is obvious that you tell your children it is OK to break the rules. Those other guys? Their fools, fuck them. Just don't get caught, and if you do blame someone else. Rules are for chumps, do what you want to, and screw the rules. He was a great hitter. Great fielder. Played his ass off.

Ex- Men - Um, yes it does. He's banned from baseball and MLB rules stipulate he can't be involved with any team, whether that's instructing minor leaguers or going into the club house. It's actually a pretty simple concept.
I agree with Pete. He could help young players so much if they allowed him on the field.
Doing what? Teaching them how to bet on the games? Showing them that rules don't apply to him, even though he knew the rules? Not hardly. Pete the prick is getting exactly what he asked for, and in my opinion, a whole lot more to deflate that huge ego that thinks he's better than anyone else. Bench said it right. Break the rules and pay the price. Tough luck, Gambling Pete. You seem to have cut your own throat.....
BS. There are plenty of other good hitters/coaches/mentors that do not have Rose's SELF-INDUCED baggage. This guy is out because he knowingly and repeatedly broke the rules and lied about it, even right to Commissioner Giamatti. Had Rose come clean to Giamatti, I'd have gone with it. But Rose didn't, and didn't for a LONG time after those meetings.
I have no more time or patience for Rose than for the juicers who came after him and ruined the record books.
@@michaelmcgovern8110Perfectly said! I totally agree!

@@bobjones8321 Put on a Peace sign, link arms with me, and we'll talk about hitting, especially beHIND the runner deep in the count with two outs. Pitching discussions let slide til after Spring Training, says I.
Or, if you've got nothing else to do, go read the 40% of Ted William's book "The Science of Hitting" that is about specific technique (and less about example players swings).
Batter UP!
@@bobjones8321
Then put on a peace-sign tshirt, link arms with me, and we'll talk about hitting, especially beHIND the runner deep in the count with two outs.
Forget pitching discussion til after Spring Training.
If you've got nothing else to do, read the 40% of Ted William's "The Science of Hitting" that is specific to technique (feet, stride, hands, pitch selection, game situation, all of it) and not just player examples.
TL;DR: Williams says: Hit their mistakes. You must be able to hit or foul off every pitch anywhere in the three-dimensional box that is your strike zone. Know what the pitcher can do. "I would practice until my hands had blisters, then I would practice until the blisters bled." That last one IS a close-enough quotation and I'm not going to go look it up. ;-].
The story about what the Babe's daughter said to him is great.
Pete deserves to be in the Hall but the Hall doesn't deserve to have Pete. He is so much better than the narrow minded people that run the Hall of fame.
What a disgrace. MLB ought to be ashamed at the way they treated this great man.
He BET on baseball games WHILE he was playing, he knew it was wrong but he didn't CARE enough to not do it.....not like he needed the money.
Don't do the crime if you can't do the time!!
Then he chooses to live in Vegas of all places!!!
Motorcityman Man The time has been done. Let the man into baseball.
He bet on games as a player and manager and had been lying about it for three decades. You realize that right?
Another casting stones!! You make me laugh, GOODY GOODY
@@fmgsr1 If you responded directly to what I said, I'd have more respect for you. Many people don't realize that this wasn't an isolated mistake, thirty years ago. As recently as 2015, a note book was surfaced confirming that Rose bet as a player -- a claim which he'd lied, and continues to lie about, to this day.
In addition, it's not as if he made a single bet. He made ongoing bets for years.
His story about being nervous meeting the 77 year old daughter of Babe Ruth is priceless. Pete is a freaking riot.
Pete Rose is the way! His baseball records speak for themselves" Rose is the HOF and he is hardball for life! Baseball's great Hit King👑
@Michael Heathman ...Aren't we all...Everyone has dirty laundry to wash. That is why Jesus came to this Earth to save and forgive and only God can judge. Jesus is without blemish but we all have stains.
@Michael Heathman ...Some people play cards and dominoes and they take it real serious...as serious as cancer. Do you think it is just a card game...they have more than poker faces on.
@Michael Heathman If you were listening to the video. It is Pete Rose way" A street they named after him not anyrhing to do with his way or the highway or anything to do with Jesus is the way. It is simply a place. And as for Las Vegas it is a good place regardless what goes on there. Las Vegas is just like any other place in America. You will find hustlers and city slickers everywhere in any city. And yes Jesus is the way, the truth and the life but that is another subject and it is sinners who he came to save and forgive or did he come to save only the righteous. Pete Rose has been serving his life ban and he has been an example to others and others have learned from Pete Rose....He clearly admits his wrongs and gives his advice to others. Don't do it!
@Michael Heathman
He saId Rose "IS" the HOF.......not "Rose is IN the HOF.
I've got a lot of Respect for this Man. If my Son was playing ball,can't think of anyone I'd rather have teaching him than MR. Pete Rose. Could sit and listen to him all day talk BASEBALL !!!
THE HIT KING!!
AND ALWAYS WILL BE!! GO REDS!!
I'm with you Pete forever!! Been a Reds Fan all my life and Pete Rose fan also!! Love You Man!!
4,256 hits ..... that’s 203 hits a year for 21 years ... took him 24 ... they way players go on IL list nowadays and swing for the long ball, this record might stand for a century
*will
He's upset with MLB, not the Reds. He knows the Reds would do what they can for Pete if allowed by MLB.
These days people want to label you with shame and never forgive. It's sad.
Why is this man ostracized when he has admitted his wrong doing? Bonds, Sosa,McGuire all allowed to be around MLB!!!! They actually cheated smdh. Keep him from managing a club fine but allow the man who is probably the greatest hitter in history of baseball to be a part of the league..
PROBABLY the greatest hitter? IS the greatest hitter.
Bonds, Sosa, McGuire are smart enough to keep their damn mouths shut and not do stupid stuff in retirement. Pete just keeps "poking the bear" (MLB) with his whining and gambling. And when it came out that he had been having sex with a 14-year-old girl, he pretty much guaranteed that he will not get into the Hall Of Fame until he has been dead for many years...if, ever. Pete brought all of this on himself.
@@SomeJustice19k well some people would disagree with us, so never speak in absolutes.
@@timheidel5849 I agree he has brought stuff on himself. But it has nothing to do with his career!!!! If you and or they want to say he isnt in because of off field stuff then they need to take out half or more of Cooperstown because alot of those guys did crap that would far exceed anything Pete did... it's the baseball hall of fame, not the hall of nice guys!!!! Have to seperate douche thi gs from great play. I'm not even a reds fan just a baseball fan.
@@zachmitchell7696 4,000 hits with a dad bod, no roids, no modern training techniques and no modern medicine. What he did is incredible. Only other batter that I'd say MIGHT be better is Ichiro.
Put Pete Rose in the Hall of Fame!
Pete Rose looks great!
We love you Pete - Cincinnati resident
love pete rose. MLB needs to get this man some clearance.
the hit king speaks the truth
*out king
He's a lying arrogant prick.
We love you Pete. You always have our support
He may have your support, but he certainly does not belong in the Hall of Fame. He broke the cardinal rule of baseball. Just ask Johnny Bench. Enough said.
The title of this video is deceiving. Rose is banned by MLB from going into ANY major league clubhouse. He’s not holding a grudge against the Reds.
The title of this video's a total lie.
Pete Rose IS baseball. MLB is too stupid and stubborn to admit that it needs Pete.
Ken Arthur couldn't have said better myself I grew up 50 miles from the ball park watching Pete play growing up was an absolute thrill no one attacked the game like he did
Craig O I agree He messed up, and he definitely won't get in as long as he's alive its really sad that he's that stubborn and continues to Gamble I grew up watching this guy play and it was a thrill being 50 miles from the stadium watching the Big Red machine are memories I'll never forget he was the leader played the game right. Your exactly right about fundamentals and hitting I hate that baseball has became what it is.i could listen to him talk baseball forever It's sad he could help the game so much. Sounds to me like it's the Reds decision to not let him on the field that surprises me a bit
Charlie Hussle
Baseball is run by a bunch of pansies. Look in the stands and see what liberalism does. People are tired of the powers that be screw up the game.
Needs Pete for what?
It is RIDICULOUS that Pete Rose is used for the Reds to sell tickets but yet he cannot even help out in the batting cage or in the broadcast booth. Come on. He was an amazing player and deserves recognition and he deserves so much more. There are much more terrible things done by many others in sports yet they have far less repercussions.
What is worse in Sports than throwing games? It doesn't matter how great he was as a player if he as manager threw games.
I don't believe that a competitor like Pete Rose threw ball games for money.
It's not as if he was strapped for cash.
He played the game to win, and he managed the game to win.
What planet are you living on? Did you ever see the man play?
He even ran to first base even after being walked.
We're not talking about the Black Sox, who were persuaded to throw the World Series because they weren't making any money.
There is no evidence that he ever bet against his team, so stop with the accusations.
Bobby Bobby google is your friend. Plenty of evidence he bet on his team WHILE playing.
@@joesmallwood9253 He bet on them to win.
@@joesmallwood9253 Yeah, bet ON his team, not against them.
HUGE Difference there. Maybe not to the league, but to his credit anyway.
When you bet against your team, you are a traitor who will give a lackluster effort in the game, and when you're the player manager as he was, you also have the opportunity to control the outcome substantially by mismanaging your team.
Neither of which this guy ever did.
Obviously some of the comments are from people not familiar with his play and didn't see him throughout his career.
I'm not saying he didn't bet on baseball, but no way in hell did he ever bet against himself or his team and try to throw a game.
That wouldn't at all be consistent with the guy who played the game for over 20 years and never gave less than everything he had.
Pete Rose is the Man.
Pete you're a legend to everyone that appreciates baseball hitting, there's nobody I'd rather have on the plate w bases loaded
Pete autographed a baseball for me in 1970 when I was 10 years old. You better believe I still have it! He belongs in the Hall.
Even before all his trouble with betting and his ban; as a kid, I loved the way he played the game; and at the beginning of a season, if I had a choice in picking my uniform and number 14 was available in my size; I always chose it. Was he my role model for all things outside of baseball? No. I had a Mom and Dad that were role models as well as other relatives. Did I appreciate the way he played the game and did I want to play like Pete Rose? Absolutely! I do hope he makes the Hall of Fame eventually.
greatest hustler on the field ever love Pete rose
am i the only one that can listen to him talk about baseball all day ?
LOVE PETE Cardinals fan since the 1964 season Pete Rose no douut my fav non Cardinal of all time follow his career all way though still admire his talkin baseball a true HOFer
Good Year AZ! Thank you!
A-Rod juices up, yankees can’t void his deal
Pete Rose bets on his team winning and has a lifetime ban.... could probably still bat better than half the DHs
Alejandro Robles I like how there was only accusations and yet nothing has came from it and it’s 2019 gtfoh
a rod is a joke
MLB trotted him out during the 2015 All-Star Game as one of the four greatest Reds of all time. If he's banned from baseball, then ban him from *everything* baseball. Mark McGwire was subpoenaed to testify in 2005, but didn't admit to using steroids until 2010. McGwire's working in baseball. Rose initially denied gambling in 1989, but, in 2004, he admitted to gambling only during his time as a manager. Just like he said, the stadium is on a *street named after him* and he's not welcome there. I can respect his position regarding the Hall of Fame, even though I don't agree with it.
I would have never considered myself a Pete Rose fan, but, while he was a player, I respected the hell out of his competitiveness and his accomplishments during a time when players weren't getting the mega-million-dollar contracts players get today. Cobb retired in 1928 after playing 23 seasons. Rose broke Cobb's record in 1985--the record stood for 57 years--and he did it in his 22nd season, one year sooner. One of the many reasons I'm no longer a baseball fan today...
Rose may have broken the record in one less season (although your numbers are off as Cobb played 24 seasons and Rose broke the record in his 23rd season), but Rose broke the record in his 3,476th career game and his 15,550th career plate appearance (if going by the official MLB record; if going by the record everyone but MLB goes by you can knock 2 games and 9 plate appearances off that total). Cobb played in just 3,034 career games and had just 13,099 career plate appearances, so Rose did not accomplish the feat sooner than Cobb.
I agree: MLB did Pete a favor when they shouldn't have. They should have kept him banned from the All Star game.
Greatest living baseball field player alive. PERIOD!
GIVE this MAN his due that he earned!!! No player anywhere could shine this guy's shoes! PERIOD!
MLB, if you honor this guy after he dies, I will never watch another baseball game in my life. DO IT NOW!
He's a good man who made a mistake, but still loves the game and has a lot to contribute to it. Saw him in San Francisco in 2015 watching a little league girls team putting their cleats on in the lobby and getting their gear ready to travel to their game. Rose was standing in the background among the hotel guests, but to himself. The smile and adoration he had on his face as he watched these little girls get excited about the same game he loved as a boy, was truly a beautiful thing to see. He would not only be a great ambassador for baseball, but he would also be a great ambassador for sports, redemption, hard work, and inclusion in general.
NO GAMBLING has been posted in every dugout since 1919. He knew that it was against the rules to place bets on the outcome of games. He is 100% responsible for for not being in the HOF.
SHERLYNN JUNIOR he literally accepted that in this video... he said he was pissed off by the reds
Yeah but it’s not like he bet against the reds and told his team to lose like why that rule exists, he bet for his team to win, which is still bad but imo nowhere near taking roids or something

@@frankiesparks2868 💯
I feel for him. But... damit he knew. And further, It really is a shame that there isn’t a little more forgiveness in this world.
I didn't know the Hall of Fame had Pete Rose artifacts. Now that makes no sense at all. So he's banned but his stuff isn't. Craziness!
It sure is.
The Hall of Fame is a load of crap anyway. It's a group stroke-fest of ass-clowns who play buddy-buddy games. It hasn't been a REAL 'hall of fame' for the sport for 30 years.
They can't recognize one of the best players to ever play the game?
Doesn't sound like a hall of fame to me.
In 1968 I was 10 years old in the left field bleachers of Wrigley Field. The Cubs were playing the Reds it was the 11th inning one of the Reds came to bat ended up on 2nd. Stole third base and somehow made it home in order to win the game. I looked at my cousin and I said who was that guy? And he looked at me and he said that was Charlie Hustle. I'll never forget that moment when I saw real greatness on the field. Pete Rose belongs in the Hall of Fame. Don't rob him of that honor like they did with Ron Santo
Betting on the Super Bowl isn't the same as betting on games that you have the ability to influence because you are PLAYING IN THEM. He never understood that.
Jordan gambled also probably why they were so focused every game
Pete is great to listen to. His rants are very much on target.
They will put him in the HOF the day after he passes away. Sad-
Maybe 100 year after everyone who was alive in 1986 dies
It's going to be a while. Maybe 50 years, but one day he and Joe Jackson will get in.
Sounds like baseball is using the Government's way of doing things. Wait until everyone dies that cares before you reveal anything such as who killed JFK.
No, they really won't
Rose belongs in the Hall. Cincinnati fans love Pete the player.
Cincinnati native here life long Reds fan...only 37, but anyone around here gets it.
Keep in mind, these are MLB politics. As you mentioned, the Reds retired and inducted you to our HoF. Cincy still loves you. I truly think the reason why you aren't allowed in the box or clubhouse are most likely from higher than the Reds.
Still remember chaperoning daughter's field trip to GABP. They have one single pink rose in the lication of that rose bed for the spot your record breaking hit landed. And one ball to represent each of your hits. It sucks, I know!
But trust me, Cincy loves you and will never be able to forget you and your mates!
BTW, My great-grandmother managed to get to as many games as possible. I have very old autographs from Perez, Morgan, Griffey (Sr.) , and Foster. One more I can't think of for the life of me...initials Dl?
Still...I WANT ROSE AND BENCH!
I was C. Rolled with #8 for Yogi...sry Johnny!
Just throwing it out there if anyone is listening. Still in the tri-state area!
Trust me, none of you are forgotten! On field accomplishments are HoF criteria; not off-field decisions. ❤
Baseball is in the gambling business now! It’s been 30 yrs and Pete admitted he was wrong many times. Time to put him in
No way, he lied for waaaay too long. He doesn't deserve to be in, he broke the golden rule of baseball. Even after he admitted he bet on baseball he kept on lying about betting on his own team. Let him in after he dies
Yeah, he admitted to it after lying about it for 15 years and did so just so he could sell his book. Time to continue keeping him out for thinking he was bigger than the game.
Exactly they want bonds in the hall of fame, even tho he cheated and did worse things then rose did
Such a great player.
Would not won game7. against RedSox wout Petes baserunning skills deep in game!
Pete Rose played hard and played well. His intensity gave him the name Charlie Hustle. His contributions to his teams brought World Series Championships. He was also a great manager. We need Charlie Hustle.
SPEED made him Charlie Hustle. FFS.

Got 1st place trophies , Most Valuable trophies ! And game balls signed by my team ! My friends dad's thought I was great ! My dad , who took me to that Crosley game , became an alcoholic and never came to see me play , or urged me on ! I'd like to think that I could have been a special player , but I loved baseball nonetheless ! Here's how much ! My friends would get together for a pickup game , and low and behold we had no ball ! Playing was everything to me , so I got my game ball that my whole team signed , for 2 game winning catches , jumping to the limits of my ability , to snag line drives over my head in center Feild for out # 2 & 3 with men on 2nd & 3rd in the bottom of the final inning up by 1 run ! But we went and beat the hell out of that ball , because it was the only ball around ! And I don't and never have regretted it ! Peace-Out !
Pete Rose, Wow what a Legend! One of my first Baseball cards was a Pete Rose 1986 Topps! I wonder if he might show up next month in Chicago for The 2019 National. ⚾️
Roman Randolph Pete was still playing in 1986? No way he would have been 45 in 86, usually far to old to still play MLB

@@beholden1663 Yes way. Rose played 1B/MGR 1985-87 then only MGR up to 1989.
Pete Rose is an excellent ambassador for the sport. He was phenomenal as a commentator and he is the best player of all time. MLB should embrace him.
The best player of all time ? Lol
there's mountains of knowledge in that head that he could pass on to younger players
I love Maddog here, keeps it real and not politically correct
Pete is the best!
Reds fans still love you Pete! You deserve to be in the hall!
Pete Rose will NEVER get into the Hall of Fame as long as Bud Selig is alive. If you know the history you will understand.
#LetPeteIn
Goodyear Arizona, not Florida mad dog. Went to see the Reds play the Indians on St. Patrick's Day last year. Good times, it was packed and my kid had a good time that's what baseball and this country was about back when it was a country and baseball was still baseball.
Pete deserves to be in the Hall of Fame⚾️
Sure: let's put into the Hall a guy who NOW admits he played most of his career on speed (do "Mr. Hustle" and his on-field bizarre behaviors make more sense now?) and gambled on baseball, even on games he played in. Sure:. teach our kids that nobody cares if you break the rules as long as you succeed. That kind of [excrement] gets us garbage like Trump.
Cobb is in the HOF.Not a bunch of alter boys is right.lol! Pete you made me play harder,and love the game more.Thank you!!You are the G.O.A.T as far as all around ball player.
Look, another person that knows nothing of what they talk about. You do know that Cobb was not the hateful racist like the rumors state right? Every story of him being an outward racist and all-around asshole have been completely debunked as they were written by an author that has absolutely zero credibility and was fired from all of his journalism jobs for continually writing inaccurate stories. In fact, Cobb came from a long line of abolitionists in the south and welcomed the integration of baseball. Cobb wasn't a perfect person, but he was nowhere near as bad as the false narratives flying around say he is. Also, Rose was nowhere near the GOAT. Get out of here with your bullshit.
#FreePete
(Spread The Word!)
Rose really should have accepted the deal he was offered. He only would have been suspended. There is a good reason Jonny Bench says Rose doesn't belong in the HOF. Here is a quote from an article on the Report that got Rose not only banned, but several months in federal prison.
Interviews with Dowd and others reveal this: Rose could have avoided his eventual conviction on tax evasion and his five months in prison - in addition to his lifetime ban from baseball - if he had only come clean in 1989.
over the top disrespect, but that's ok the REAL FANS of the RED'S know who he is.
The players today hit about .205... motherfuckers NEED Pete Rose to teach them how to hit.
This is so awesome. He could have said it prior to today/this interview (I don't know), but this is the 1st time I have ever heard Pete admit he screwed up. KUDOS to you, Pete!!!!
I wonder if Pete ever bet over/unders in baseball? Especially I'm wondering about overs. Leave a pitcher in the game too long.
Pete lost big money to gamblers. Gamblers will sell their children to keep going. Did he over-use a closer? Did he rest a closer a few games to load up for a game he thought he could win? Who knows what he did to his lineup as a direct result of gambling.
Also, I don't think most of the public knows about betting the run lines. One last thing, most ball clubs have a defensive specialist. A guy who comes into a game in the later innings. I'm sure Pete didn't use those guys if he had a chance to win a bet.
It's not the Reds that wont allow him in the clubhouse, it's MLB.
You made the Big red machine great and the real fans remember. We honor Pete RoseWay. Thank you Pete Rose
This guy speaks the truth
The thing I've never gotten over with Pete Rose is him looking into the camera multiple times and professing his innocence: I did not gamble on baseball! Then after so long and so much evidence, he admits it. I have issues with liars like that. If he'd admitted and took ownership of his actions then, like he does now, I'd have no problems with him.
Not only that but I think his two biggest strikes were not just betting on baseball, but betting on his own team (he claims he always bet on them to win, seems shady, no way to verify), and he agreed to a lifetime ban. That is like the criminal that accepts a plea deal complaining about it after the fact. I respect what he did as a player, and I've seen him talk, he is a funny guy, but as a person he seems to have major flaws.
Total BS. Yez he gambled, was he wrong to do that yes. Have you ever made a poor choice in life? Show me a human being who HASENT and I'll jump tl the moon for you. Unless those mistakes hurt someone else or someone else's property then why are you making a big deal outnof him gambling. As much as he loves baseball, loves his team and players and fans. Do you really think he would bet against his team and mess up a game on purpose over some money? He was already rich.. he made a mistake. He deserves to be in the hall of fame while he is living. You got roid heads and cheaters in there but Pete gambled so he is shunned? Get real. Do you know how much food it woukd do fkr the game and how much excitement and media stir it would bring if Pete was allowed to manage a major league team? Ppl need to get off their high horse and stop condemning the man. Over GAMBLING. This is so stupid it's unreal he's paid the price and it sets a precedent already to anyone thinking about doing that again.. right is right and wrong is wrong. Opinions though are like ass holes. . How does anyone love baseball and not support rose for the hall of fame? Even if you disliked the man's lifestyle and all his whoring around when married and everything else. That's between him and God and has nothing to do with his baseball accomplishments and by the way all those records. He didn't need ROIDS. For like the cheaters do
@@joshdavis3743
Gamblers usually owe money to really nasty people. Rose gambled big money. When he was in a nasty hole, I'm sure Rose figured betting on his own team (an outcome he could easily manipulate, especially as coach) was a great way to make sure he didn't get his legs broken. Rose broke baseball's most sacred rule: No Gambling. Bye, Pete.
@robertgates5164..How many lies have you told in your lifetime ? Do you still cheat on your wife ?
This is an example of how crazy this world is... Pete Rose has always been great for baseball. His attitude as "Charlie Hustle" is unparalleled to this day. Murderers and cheaters are there but not Pete.. BTW , if he never bet against his team, then there wasn't much conflict of interest.
Don't EVER try to justify what Rose did. www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2014/08/why-pete-rose-still-cant-be-absolved/378866/
A man’s man. A dying bread. Love The Hit King !
this guy belongs in the hall of fame.
Hard to be sympathetic for a great player who bet on his team to lose...and then lied about it for 20 yrs...
@ Robbie I would like to know how everybody knows which way he threw his bets ? Pete would never bet to lose , do I think he bet on baseball , yes ,do I think he bet on the reds ,yes , do I think he bet on them to lose , where he could influence the outcome , NO !
The newspapers here had the entire expose with alleged names of bookies , fixers , etc , I think John Dowd filled in the blanks with the answers he was told to use , I live in cincy and read and watched all this bullshit transpire and anyone with a single brain cell could tell not all , but some of this was fabricated , Regards Robert
@@robertsr.249 hi..I think it is a given that he did bet on the reds to lose at times..remember rose accepted banishment from baseball so the Dowd report would not be released...think about it...he of course backed out of his deal and lied for 20 yrs after....
@@robbie192 It's the equivalent of opting out of taking the breathalyzer test when a cop pulls you over, and taking the voluntary suspension of license, cuz you know you're gonna be caught.
@@giantsfan7733 well, I may disagree..Pete got the Dowd report secret..baseball never released it to the public..he kept his image and many still say he never bet on his team or his team to lose.
@Robbie I still think John Dowd put down what he was directed to , Have you ever heard of fabricated evidence , The bigger the pile , the worst it smells , bet ,yes , bet on the reds ? Yes , bet on them to lose ,? Where he could influence it ? No ! He was told to shut up about it for future consideration , As an added note I graduated from the same high school as Pete
At least he didn't use roids.
Roids help the game but hurt the athlete. Gambling RUINS sports.
Pete got to sit in the broadcast booth when the Phillies invited him back this past summer in 2022. The first thing he did was say to John Kruk, the color analyst, "I knew Johnny when he had two balls." Kruk had testicular cancer in 1994.
Charlie Hustle we still love you and your Hall of Fame in our hearts!
But no plaque in the HOF, good thing
I wish Pete managed my Mets
Yeah, I hear you. I wish he would have played for the Mets and managed them afterwards.
@@mtp4430 I remember when he got into the fight with Bud Harrelson in th 73 playoffs.
@@davidgreenshield2505 He was mad because Harrelson had commented that in game 2, the Reds looked like him in the batters box. And if you know anything about Bud Harrelson's career, he couldn't hit.
But Rose could have killed him because he outweighed Harrelson by about 50 lbs.
So when Harrelson commented to Rose about his slide into 2nd base, Rose was pissed off, but Harrelson stood his ground and was in a retaliatory stance.
So Rose just basically grabbed him and laid him down.
Rose really could have done some damage to him, but he got his message across without punching out Harrelson's lights.
Trust me, every single person from Cincinnati wishes he managed the Reds (again lol).
I still remember the cartoon in the daily news after that showing a hulking Pete Rose standing over twiggy Harrelson. And I'm a huge Mets fan and loved both the Mets and the Reds then. Now I can't remember the last time I watched a ball game.
