PETE ROSE RUMORS & GOSSIP
Sports Gambling Should Be Legalized
Throughout the history of sports we have seen corruption in most leagues because of different gambling shams. In 1919 the White Sox threw the World Series; in the 1940s and 1950s, the NFL had some fixed games and point shaving; Pete Rose was banished in 1989 for gambling on his own team; and, most recently, [&hellip

This Day in Baseball: Rose Under Fire
On this day in 1989, Pete Rose met with Commissioner Peter Uberroth and Commissioner-elect Bart Giamatti to discuss the allegations that Rose – manager of the Cincinnati Reds at the time – had been betting on baseball.

Despite being considered one of the greatest players of all-time, Rose is not in the Hall of Fame. He was banned from the game in 1989 for betting on baseball and has yet to be reinstated. There was some hope that Commissioner Bud Selig would reinstate...

Pete Rose placed on Bobblehead Hall of Fame ballot
While the news lacks the gravitas and significance of say, had it been revealed that Pete Rose’s name finally had been placed on a more esteemed list, but the announcement that the man known as “Charlie Hustle” has been placed on the ballot for the Bobblehead Hall of Fame certainly merits some fanfare. Or not....Read More

Pete Rose stars in Sketchers “hall” commercial
Pete Rose is starring in a new Sketchers commercial, with plenty of tongue in cheek references about “the hall”. From the moment the commercial begins, you know exactly what’s going on, but that doesn’t make it any less effective. Sure…the hall in Rose’s home. That’s exactly what we’re talking about here. Clever commercial, but it’s a little too on the nose for...

Pete Rose honored by team, gets number retired
It’s been more than 28 years since Pete Rose stepped into a batter’s box, but on Tuesday night, baseball’s hit king was part of a publicity stunt that would have, no doubt, made the late-Bill Veeck roll his eyes.

Bud Selig: I have five months to think about Pete Rose
CINCINNATI — Retiring Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig knew it was coming, just as any hitter facing the Cincinnati Reds knows a fastball is coming from Aroldis Chapman. Selig was in Great American Ball Park Friday night and held a media conference to field questions. As he stood at the podium, he smiled and looked out toward the nearly filled room and said, “I can probably guess...
Pete Rose to manage game for Bridgeport Bluefish
He’s back, baby! Well…for one day, at least. In a possible attempt to out publicity stunt fellow Atlantic League stalwarts Sugar Land Skeeters, the Bridgeport Bluefish announced Pete Rose, who is currently serving a lifetime ban from Major League Baseball and who last managed in the bigs in 1989, will be in the dugout when the team takes on the Lancaster Barnstormers June 16...

Pete Rose: Using PEDs worse than gambling on baseball
Pete Rose, who remains banned from Major League Baseball for betting on games during his years as a player and as a manager, said Monday that his transgression isn’t quite as bad as using performance-enhancing drugs. “They’re both bad. I think in my case, I know I didn’t do anything to alter the statistics of baseball,” Rose said on The Michael Kay Show on ESPN 98.7 FM...
