Happy Birthday Pete Rose
Born 63 years ago today.

Damn I'm old, I remember him when he was in his 30's :cry:

1. I remember him as a player, too.
Dammit Pete...if only you'd gotten help for your gambling addiction.

At any rate, Happy Birthday to Charlie Hustle.

5. I never thought of Rose as likable
but always admired his "hustle" and ability. How ironic that current players pumped up on various chemicals are going to be in the record books and Hall of Fame while a player like Rose that did what he did almost entirely through determination will never be there.
