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. -- Ken Fortenberry- anybody got a clue bat I can borrow ;-) 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.. |

"Ken Fortenberry" wrote in message gy.com... 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 Fortenberry 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? Ernie |

Dave http://hometown.aol.com/davplac/myhomepage/index.html 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. -- Ken Fortenberry |

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, . . .snip 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. -- TL, Tim ------------------------ http://css.sbcma.com/timj |

sour grapes and wimpy whine snipped 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. Dave http://hometown.aol.com/davplac/myhomepage/index.html |

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