OT Lying ****-weasel

K Bill, try to follow along here. Pete Rose, the manager of the
Cincinnati Reds, is a known gambler and he places bets, always ON
the Cincinnati Reds, some 4 or 5 times a week. With me so far ?
Now, go out and beg borrow or steal another active brain cell
to rub against the only one you've ever had and see if you can
figure out what a professional gambler would do on the days that
Pete Rose DIDN'T bet.

I asked a horse trainer one day if his horse was going to win. He said "Lou,
If I could tell who was going to win a horse race, do you think I'd be getting
up 6AM every day to work with horses?" Back when my daughter was intrerested
in being a vet, she worked at the track to pump up her resume (and make money).
In one race, she, and the people who knew the horse, were predicting if the
horse would come in last or beat one horse. The horse won. Baseball is like
most sports in predicting outcomes. I don't think Pete Rose knew if his team
would win or lose. If Pete Rose did "know" is not the situation, I hope.
Let's face the facts though. Pete broke rules that he knew the league was
adamant about and should expect the promised outcome..

I wouldn't mind a separate section of the Hall to enshrine scum
like Joe Jackson and Pete Rose for their play on the field, but
enshrinement in that section of the Hall would be posthumously
ONLY, and there would be no induction ceremony. Just a plaque
in
the Shameful Section which would include a description of their
crimes against the game.

Ken,
What makes you so passionate about a game when you don't seem
to have much respect for things like honor, duty, service and
country?

I love my country, I am patriotic, but I don't march in lockstep
with the policies of the greedy corporate thugs who would destroy
the very things that make this country great. Dissent is good,
especially now.

I get sick and ****ing tired of ex-military who think they're
some sort of Uber American because they were in the service. They
think they're more patriotic, they think their opinions carry
more weight, they think their dicks are longer and their teeth
are whiter, but most of them are just poor dumb schmucks who
couldn't afford to go to college and they are no better or worse
than any other citizen in this republic.

Both of you silly old bitches can go straight to hell.

Well.. my 2 ct. worth. I would just like to know if he had ever
betted AGAINST his team. If not, so what! IIRC, the superbowl team
owners put up a wager on the game that's made public! And now hearing
his latest interviews, it appears he aint the brightest bulb in the
make-up mirror! AND always remember, Its a game! Bill


He says he never bet against his team, but I says that not betting on his
team to win is nearly as bad as betting on his team to lose. You can't
tell me that he wouldn't think differently about his bullpen when he knew
there was no money on the game, and he wouldn't burn up his bullpen when
there was alot on the game.

He was also exposing baseball to the risk that some bookie or mobster would
threaten him into throwing a game.

Exactly. Is he going to change THAT story fourteen years from now? He's lost any
and all credibility, and anything out of his mouth at this point is suspect.

No Ken,
Most of them are laying in cemeteries scattered around the world
so you can spout your drivel on the Internet.

My, my, my. Seems like a nerve was severed on that one. Time to get out your
seven iron and attack, old brave dissenter.

Never said or claimed any of the things you said. I just thought you ultra
liberals were supposed to be a little more tolerant. Guess I was wrong. Are
most liberals as intoleratant as you are, Ken? Are they *all* prigs?

You are correct on one thing, however. Yep, I couldn't afford to go to
college. Mom and dad both worked, but, you see, we were just a poor
blue-collar-Democrat-voting family. We had very little except work ethic, a
love of family, and a love for fly fishing.

My plan was to join the Navy and get my education - and I did, but you don't
approve because it wasn't a liberal arts education. Makes me laugh, really,
because of how very successful I've been when compared to many of my edumacated
friends.

Is every day in your life miserable, Ken, or is that just your Usenet persona?

Toodles.

No more so than President Clinton risked national security with his actions.

He gambled while he was coach, not while he was playing (caveat - as far as we
know). He should be in the HofF for what he did as a player, not as a coach.
