Keith Olbermann Talks Pete Rose Banishment Anniversary & Shohei Ohtani w Rich Eisen | Full Interview

[@nsn5564]

A little-discussed facet of the Olberman-Patrick duo was their individual unique astonishingly listenable tenor voices. His intelligence and eloquence have always been noted, but his voice is just fantastic.

[@1burnman]

Absolutely

[@jamesbailey5350]

I listen to Olbermann's Countdown podcast, and sympathize with much of what he has to say. He is wrong about Pete Rose, who is a malignant narcissist incapable of redemption, short of divine intervention like the Road to Damascus event. No mercy for this POS. Any remorse is just another hustle by Charley Hustler.

[@brewer921]

Harry Krause made 21 starts in 1909. Hard to believe that's the best pitching season of all time.

[@haroldfloyd5518]

Never heard of Krause and don’t know anybody who thinks his 1909 season compares in any way with the best by Walter Johnson, Sandy Koufax, Bob Gibson or Greg Maddux.

[@sweetmapleleafs]

Pete Rose's biggest mistake was taking Marge Schott's offer to be the Reds player/manager. That enabled him further to bet even more because he was in a position of power. It came at the expense of his roster, & that's just as selfish as a player taking steroids. And when Marge hired another #14 in Lou Piniella from the Yankees to be Rose's successor, Lou took that same roster of Reds players & had a wire to wire 1990 season which culminated in a World Series sweep of the A's. What was Rose doing so wrong with that team that Lou did so right? If Pete Rose managed the '90 Reds, the Reds title drought would be, ironically, 14yrs longer than it currently is!

[@kurt1618]

For life means for life. He got caught and he shouldn't go in. Besides the fact, I can't stand him as a public speaker and how he talked about other greats. Just total low class.

[@ke6nber]

Pete Rose was an incredible talent. Hard working and always pushing himself to be better. Also, Pete Rose is a terrible human being.

[@jasonwalter-tz4qz]

Omg Olbermann actually said banning Rose from betting on baseball "would be like banning Shohei in 4 years [for betting]." How portentous did that end up being?

[@richardcoreno]

For years, charges flew between Bob Feller and Pete Rose concerning shady memorabilia sales.

[@alexshirley6096]

Olbermann is one of the goats of announcing should be the goat of all announcers but he can’t get out of his own way

[@donniethomas6785]

Anytime I see a movie with Paul giamatti I always think of Pete Rose

[@jacksonj3082]

KO - great point about Shohei, it's the talking heads in sports & social media that want to crown Shohei and label him "the greatest", then if he does not produce in future years they will be the first to tear him down. Calm down "sports journalist" in sports & social media - we all know you are going after views, hits, clicks, and subscribers using Shohei and hyperbole as your stepping stone.

[@benschulz2166]

Ruth had a hall of fame pitching career? not sure about that. 4 or 5 seasons ?? need a fact check there

[@1burnman]

I remember the ban

[@gusstoney1561]

I once thought I was crazy, then I heard Oberman and realized I was just fine. Rose got screwed.

The Big KO.

Kieth Olbermann is a lunatic. I can’t believe people treat him as though he isn’t deranged.

[@Just_aDad]

I agree. I got into an argument with him over Twitter one time. He’s unlistenable to me.

[@truanashabadapressure6621]

@@Just_aDad I live near DC and I have friends all over the political spectrum but this guy would post videos ranting about Russia and demonizing half the country. Just deluded nonsense. He’s been fired nearly everywhere he’s worked…I just don’t get it.

[@nickstoli]

Pedantic, sure, but he's got a great grasp of sports history. As far as his politics goes, even though I agree with him more than Fox News, I completely ignore it.

[@truanashabadapressure6621]

@@nickstoli you agree with his incoherent ramblings about Russia and how anyone who disagrees with him is a white supremacist?

Some people treat trump as if he isn’t deranged, so why not?

[@nsn5564]

As good at both things *at the same time* KO.

[@danielkim9587]

This is the single greatest season in MLB history because of the modern game, Keith ollberman tries to be the smartest guy all the time and can't enjoy history in the making

[@joshsalwen]

KO said that Shohei should the unanimous MVP, so he knows it is an amazing season. He is just saying that we need to see a few more years to know how it rates and he ranks historically.

[@danielkim9587]

@@joshsalwen you are also stuck inside your own head, you've never seen anything like this in baseball and only heard about the Ruth doing these types of things and you need what seasons to see it historically? Basically what you guys are saying is I've been so used to babe Ruth being the greatest baseball player of all time I will not allow myself to let another player especially from another country come in and disturb that idea let alone be excited about it

[@clydesalley]

@@danielkim9587 You obviously don't listen. He said he was the MVP but as far as his lifetime accomplishments, one year does not a lifetime make. For anybody. Otherwise, Ron Guidry would be in the hall of fame, wouldn't he? Or Denny McClain who won two Cy Young awards but is not in the hall of fame. You're basically calling Olbermann a racist when he's about as far from being a racist as one could get and you can't distinguish one year or even two years of accomplishments from a lifetime of accomplishments.

[@revenueguru1]

Underman is a horrible human being and I'm shocked Eisen is friends with him. Still a Rich fan, but it's gonna take a bit to shake this off. That said, my more charitable side thinks underman would be a great fit for Mickey Florios radical PFT enterprise. He could team up with Josina Anderson and do some real damage to American culture, just like he always dreamed of doing.

[@youtubecontent6394]

Do ppl not know about his political opinions? Shocked he’s allowed in public.

[@troyharrison7804]

I know, he’s a piece of 💩

[@allensaunders449]

People elected trump in the past they should be barred from ever voting again yet they can still vote

[@garcjr]

There was a time when people who had a difference of political opinions could still be friends. Some of that still holds true today but it's fading away fast. Also you can like certain music but don't have to like the musicians politics. For example I like Ted Nugent and and some of Kid Rock. Do I have to like their politics? No I can say even Kid Rock sang with Willie Nelson and there's nothing wrong with that. A disagreement in politics doesn't mean you have to hate the individual no matter what.

Remember you Japanese.. Shohei is Korean, all Japanese govs and crowd have hid the fact.

You do know he was born in Japan. As were his parents. So not really sure what you have against the government of Japan, but to say something false is very misleading.
