Chuckles, you've lost your mind. Allowing Rose to manage again? You're kidding, right? Geeeze.
1. First and foremost, Rose is a welcher. If he had paid his marks, like a good citizen, no one is the wiser [just like Jordan] Instead we know he'a a big jagoff.
2. What a perfect cover for a player/gambler: "Charlie Hustle". How much of the hustle or O-fers because he laid the wood on the Reds to win/lose? We'll never know, now will we? I choose to believe he did and nothing that lying SOB says will ever convince me otherwise.
3. Rose says he never inquired about the health of pitchers, players with his connections in the managerial ranks. More bullcrap.
Hal McCoy, longtime sportswriter for Dayton Daily News, in an interview on a Chgo sports talker, revealed how he was in Rose's office when he was talking to Sparky inquiring about a pitcher going for the Tigers that day and jotting down notes in his infamous "red book".with Rose saying "he liked to stay on top of things" with a smile. Hal didn't think much about it back then, but now we know.
"Charlie ME, ME, ME" intentionally ruined Molitor and Eckersley's big day. Hopefully, that day will never come his way.
May they all come home safely!
