Mixed feelings on that. It was against the rules and he knew it was against the rules. He also made bets on his own team which I do not think is or will be allowed on the proposed rules.

Not sure Pete bet on the his own team, but he bet on baseball and lied so long about it. It’s the perception and the potential aspects that should make any gambling illegal if your an athlete. If you are a football player and bet on horses, perception is maybe you tank
A game to even up a bet. It’s a shame. All of it.

He did bet on his own team when he was the manager which is a big reason he was banned in stead of suspended.

He did bet on his own team. But always to win. Still wrong but never tried to throw a game.

That’s what I had always read he bet on his team to win! Hope that was/is the truth. Loved watching him play.

Only Pete Rose was saying that, and that came after years of lying about it. Not to mention that it’s still bad for a manager to be betting on games

I got the chance to meet Pete and talk with him.
A great man with flaws like all humans.
He always gave 100% on the field to win!
Just like Shoeless Joe Jackson!!!
Go Tigers!

Players gambling and a manager gambling on his own team aren't the same thing

It’s still illegal for “professional” athletes and coaches… several NBA players and coaches are just arrested yesterday:

His on field stats matter. His coaching is a separate career. 4256 hits?!? Untouchable.
Laughable.

Funny. I had that exact same thought yesterday as the news was breaking. Maybe they should go ahead and put him in the Hall of Fame now.

For something that has now become perfectly legit in sports…
"Perfectly legit". Dozens of people were arrested yesterday because it is specifically not perfectly legit.
The NBA banned a player, Jontay Porter, last year for life. Because it's not legit. The same is about to happen to Billups and Rozier.

It's perfectly logical , when you consider that in Rose's era it wasn't just illegal but also viewed by the public as taboo.
Today , the public not only views it as normalized , but indeed participates in the arena with the backing of pervasive advertising campaigns led by top athletes and Hollywood stars.
This wide acceptance comes from a pointed campaign aimed at politicians at every level taking payoffs to push gambling laws down and allow the eruption of it on the internet and our televisions at home.
My 12 year old son asked me what a billboard in the Savannah area meant , it was a betting site's ad campaign.
That's how they get ya. Glitzy , shiny promises of riches. It's a done deal.
