Unfortunately, the insufferable Pete Rose is back in the news today. He was recently the keynote speaker at a a gala for the Ohio Justice and Policy Center and told the crowd that he deserved to be allowed back in baseball. He said that he’s given up hope of getting into the Hall of Fame and now just wants to be a manager so he can “teach young players.”
Yes, because I’m sure Major League Baseball is just itching for its young players to learn the art of lying yourself into delusion and then telling the truth only when it’s financially opportunistic to do so.
Like you probably are, I’m sick and tired of the endless Pete Rose debate. I did, however, get a bit of a chuckle when I thought about Bud Selig reading about Rose’s comments, and that chuckle led to me imagining a conversation between the two, which led to (finally!) a new photo story.
