Pete Rose
Image

Pete Rose
Image
I'd be willing to bet you, if I were a betting man, that I have never bet on baseball.
Pete Rose
Image
If I had been busted for drugs instead of gambling, I'd still be managing the Reds and baseball would be paying for my rehab.

If you screw up and do something, don't lie about it come clean.
