As if anyone needed another reason to dislike him. Has anyone kept track of how many times he's been busted lying about his gambling (and subsequently changed his story on the matter)?

Meh. Call me when it's proven he statutorily raped his own girls.

Pretty cool she kept it under a half century before coming out with this.

She only came forward because of Rose's lawsuit against Dowd. And Rose has admitted to the affair, though he says that he thought she was 16.

Although it was obviously consensual, a 32 year old married man having sex with a 14-16 year old is pretty sleazy.

Well, it is Pete Rose we're talking about.

If you can't find a good woman, raise one.

**** my grandad was 20 and he met my 13 years old grandmom and they never looked back. Of course that was like 1920... Rose is one of the best hitters and all round baseball players ever. But he's also a huge piece of ****. Lots of pro athletes are.

Depending on how she looks, this could be the thing that gets him into the hall of fame.

 

[UpstateNYCat]

Damn, Pete was hitting everything back then.

 

[GrandePdre]

The Hit King was apparently the Hit It Young King, too.

Pete is a compulsive gambler and a sexual deviant.

He has zero redeeming qualities.

Great baseball player though.

Pete's favorite saying - "If there's grass on the field, play ball!".

^^^^ Yep. The elephant in the room.

 

[Monroe Claxton]

He had a great average with girls in scoring position

 

[UpstateNYCat]

Well known for the head first slide.

 

[GonzoCat90]

Maybe one time when less hustle would have been appropriate.

He gave 3 -1 odds on it.

That's debatable.
