It’s amazing how defiant he is in lying. You almost can’t believe a word he says in any interview.

[@adamdorgant9454]

You’re right about that!!!!

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

He's sick. That's what a gambling addiction will do to you.

[@joshhonaker3085]

I think Pete would be in the hall if you just owned it instead of lying for 14 yrs

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

MLB wanted him to get help and they would actually look at it. But he denied it for years and years

[@dwainlambrigger3769]

It's just sad. I can't believe a word he is saying, no one with common sense does. He broke the rules, he knew it, he lied about it and then signed an agreement giving him a lifetime ban on baseball. He signed it. Now he is unhappy with the circumstances.

[@johnts1]

Lied like a rug. So stupid. Threw his whole career away. I get it. We all make mistakes, but come on, come clean about them when caught.

[@adamdorgant9454]

Not to mention he served time in Prison for Tax Evasion!!!!!

[@chris2302]

Even though Pete has always been one of my favorite athletes and it's very sad that Pete isn't in the Hall of Fame, it's his own fault that he's not there. He knew that betting on baseball would lead to lifetime banishment and he was arrogant, crooked, reckless, entitled, disrespectful, and stupid enough to do it and think that he wouldn't get busted nor held accountable for it like he and other sleazy assholes, snakes, and scumbags like him tend to think. People like him never learn nor change because they lack the intelligence to know how.

[@PaWhiteTailHunter]

He has a record nobody will ever beat, at least not in the next 50 years. If he was a yes man like Othani this would have blew over and went away like that situation

[@loyaldude10]

Pete might have been reinstated had he come clean sooner and ceased gambling. I read he still bets on baseball to this day. Shame he never got help for his gambling addiction because I personally don’t think this is as bad as players using illegal substances and corking bets as well as the electronic signal stealing

[@adamdorgant9454]

True!!!

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

Well. They also found mob connections with his gambling, corked bats, underaged girls etc

[@roland7584]

This interview is clear on why Rose is banned from baseball and how he kept himself out of the Hall of Fame. Thanks Pete for all your interviews lying to everyone.

[@adamdorgant9454]

Lies like Bill Clinton!!!!

[@jonklein7130]

It is a simple question why sign the agreement if you did not do it. The evidence was overwhelming

[@adamdorgant9454]

You’re right about that!!!

[@adamdorgant9454]

Never seen this one before, thanks for Sharing!!!!

[@JW-dy8ru]

If you are going to lie, then lie all the way.

[@adamdorgant9454]

It never gets old seeing this man Lie!!!!

[@robbie192]

He lies like trump...every word is a lie

[@adamdorgant9454]

Pretty much like Bill Clinton lies about having a relationship with Monica Lewinsky or any woman for that matter, Iam surprised he didn’t get named in a paternity suit like Pete Rose did!!!

[@leesmith813]

He only bet on his team WINNING, never losing. So he never fixed a game. Floyd Mayweather Jr allegedly bet on winning his fights, yet that is no big deal at all.

[@adamdorgant9454]

You’re right about that!!!!

[@coryhoneycutt]

lol, did he manage bullpen depending on which nights he had bets etc

[@scho525]

It was established he wasn’t betting on games started by Mario Soto. There also isn’t a clear and stated rule for boxers betting on themselves.

[@iamhungey12345]

That's his claim, remember he lied about betting on baseball for over a decade before admitting it because he had a book coming out. Even only betting on his team to win has its own implications, what about the games he didn't bet on?
