Pete Rose, Major League Baseball’s all-time hit king, has died. He was 83.
He was banned for life, time to put him in the Hall of Fame.
Love how there doesn’t even appear to be a baseman threatening to get him out
Shit, the over/under was 85 and I took the over.
Pete deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. Particularly now that every other commercial is a betting ad. I think the real reason they kept him out was that they didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of an award speech. Now that is no longer a concern, and they should definitely put him in posthumously.
Yeah, the hypocrisy is fucking rife.
I had a similar feeling when they had that Field of Dreams game several in 2021 b/w the ChiSox and Yankees. Kevin fucking Costner walks his ass out to the mound and gives a lovely speech, and didn’t say one god damned word about Shoeless Joe Jackson.
Players still aren’t allowed to gamble. Coaches sure aren’t. Player- coaches sure as fuck aren’t. Player-coaches who pull themselves in high- pressure situations for a Mendoza-line player can get fucked.
He’s secretly gambling up in heaven now ❤️ only for the angels to win, of course
What’s the current odds on him coming back? I’ve got a double sawbuck…
