Pete Rose comes out of exile to remind us why he’s there in the first place

Pete Rose was a baseball fan as a kid in Tampa Bay. He was caught up in a scandal involving his gambling and drug dealing. Pete Rose's reputation has been tarnished since the investigation into his betting became public in 1989. He denied being the father of a child born in 1978, but later acknowledged paternity. Rose avoided paying taxes and was sentenced to five months in prison. His assistant was later convicted of dealing drugs. The assistant would later say Rose instructed him to forge his name on thousands of memorabilia items. Peter Edward Rose admitted his lies while selling his autobiography. It's a shame that his childhood memories are preserved.

Pete Rose is in exile. He has been accused of sending inappropriate messages to women. Rose has always been a hustler. He should have taken the time to examine his own shortcomings. If he had done that, the world would have forgiven him for his crimes. Instead, he has a hellbent approach.
