Who here loves Pete Rose? I know I did. He was at his peak in late 60's and 70's, exactly when I was growing up. I loved only the Yankees and disliked every other team and player, except Pete Rose. He was so special. He passed away today, 9/30/2024. May he rest in peace.
Pete Rose not in the HOF is a travesty. The guy put up those phenomenal numbers in almost every category except pitching and he did it CLEAN. So what he bet on bball.?? Anyone can go to any kwik stop and bet anything these days. Travesty.
@@vec875 Yep. That’s what I’m saying. Jon singleton is trying to make a comeback years after serious suspensions for smoking pot. They don’t even test for THC anymore. But this man’s career was ruined, along with other players’ careers. And now he is forgiven. Gambling is now legal, but there’s no forgiveness for Pete Rose?? Makes no sense.
@@ahf5471 I agree completely. I could never understand gambling or why people love it so much. I went to a casino one time in my life. I was with my best friend after 15 minutes playing craps he was up three or $400. I told him “let’s go! Take the money and let’s get outta here.“ of course his response was no no, I’m on a roll. He ended up losing that 400 and 300 of his own lol. On the way home he’s pounding on the steering wheel asking himself. Why didn’t he listen to me. 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah, those people getting on their soapboxes and preaching about Pete's lack of morals and discipline have absolutely NO room to talk. The man should have been in the HOF decades ago.
When my son was a little league ball player I developed him after Pete Rose and some Joe Morgan. My son always ran to first base no matter where it was hit. He was complimented many times for his hustle. It would eventually earn him a college scholarship for baseball where he would score the winning run for the conference championship. Pete may have been banned from the hall of fame but his influence on the game can’t be denied. My son and I will miss Pete Rose RIP!
Amazing interview, his quick wit, funny lines. This is not the fake crap on today. Rose was one of the all time greats who made mistakes and paid for them. 17 TIME ALL STAR, ALL TIME HIT LEADER, PLAYED LEFT, RIGHT, SHORT, 1ST, 3RD IN THOSE ALL STAR GAMES, 3 TIME WORLD CHAMPION, GREAT CAREER !
Never realized that Pete Rose was so funny! I always admired his greatness, and that Charlie Hustle mentality! He always played at full speed! Definitely one of the greatest players of all time, and hopefully someone will have the decency, class, and intelligence to put him in the Hall of Fame, because he more than deserves it, just too bad it didn’t happen while he was still living! That is about as cold, and wrong as it gets! Rest in peace Pete Rose, you were one of the best of all time, period!
I was born in Cincinnati, my uncle knew Pete. My family moved to Atlanta when I was 7 years old. I loved and lived for baseball. When I was 9, I got something in the mail one day. It was a poster of Pete signed "To Tim with best wishes...Pete Rose."
@@secondstring I to grew up in the 70s being born in 65 and remember watching Pete and the Big Red Machine in the mid 70s .he was a incredible player .I also have a piece of his restaurant memorabilia that was autographed by Pete .of all my autographed pieces my 3 favorites are the Rose signed Restaurant ticket .a Hank Aaron autographed baseball and a 8x10 Willie May's famous over the shoulder catch world series autographed photo
Same here tho It wasn’t till he joined my team and made us winners in 1980. I was the perfect age to learn baseball from this great and he was the best I’ve seen and I caught the tail end of his career.
I lived about 75 miles north of Cincinnati growing up. Graduated 1977. Loved the Big Red Machine. Used to lay in bed at night listening to their games on my transistor radio(should have been asleep). Went to plenty of games. God, I miss those days...
I have always been a fan of his! I watched every game when he played for the Reds it was the Big Red Machine! They were best team in America in my opinion! had Cincinnati Reds shirts and hats and everything and during baseball season I would always be wearing my Reds jersey and hat! I’m heartbroken for the loss! R.I.P. Pete you will be missed!

4200 hits... Broke TY COBB'S hits record which stood for over half a CENTURY. It is possible that no one will break Pete's 4200 hits record for another 100 years....
Agreed about the legend Pete Rose! He damn sure wasn't, and isn't the only sports person betting on games. He was caugt or even set up. The man gambling doesn't erase his skill! They made an example of him, and made it political in a sense. He paid his debt to society and should've been allowed in the hall. An autograph is contraband even in prison? Asinine! Rest In Peace Pete, we haven't forgotten your incredible records, even if the hall has!
He knew the consequences for gambling on baseball games! He got what he deserved and can only blame himself for being stupid! Especially gambling on games when you are still involved in major league baseball!
Yes -- in addition to "Mr. Baseball" getting inducted into Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame, he's on the Brewer's 'RIng of Honor' & 'Wall of Honor', has TWO statues at the Brewer's ballpark... and was even inducted into the Celebrity Wing of the WWE Hall of Fame!!
Pete's point about how he never got on the show as a player kind of calls attention to the fact that Johnny was not a baseball fan. He didn't book baseball players during their prime because he didn't follow the pennant races and whenever he had Joe Garagiola on, it would only to be ask the most generically insipid questions about baseball superstitions etc. (contrast that with the clip when Garagiola is a guest when George Carlin, a real baseball fan was guest hosting and we get intelligent questions about the pennant race etc.) I don't say that to knock Johnny, but his lack of baseball knowledge was always quite evident over the decades. That's why it's priceless to see one clip where Tommy Newsom ends up revealing more knowledge about the game and leaves Johnny upstaged.
Deserves to be in HOF because a lot are in there that did worse things than he did. Managers covered up for them! Met him several times and still have several autographs he did for me when I lived in CINCY from 1975-85. He was in Marion, IL federal prison close to where I was born and grew up.
Watching "charlie hustle" back in the day was memorable. Still remember his intensity and play, getting a hit! The price he paid is still a mark on him that haunts.
If you ban Pete from The Hall of Fame -- the "Management" needs psychological counseling. Pete gambled -- so did George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, and other Founders of the U.S.A. Pete was talented -- and others were too jealous to give him the credit he deserved. Pathetic! * Cav *
Another one of the greats, from an era when people *were* more "fun," as Pete expressed to Johnny, is sadly gone. RIP Pete, and shame on the baseball powers-that-be!!
Now that Pete has left us, these interview from this time up to his death, are just incredibly heartbreaking! He , like a lot of us fans, thought that he would eventually get reinstated! Now that he's gone, he's been exonerated completely, and MLB is now at fault! RIP Pete. God will you and Shoeless Joe will one day find a benevolent commissioner to reinstated you both. Right now, the TRUE Judge that matters, has exonerated you!🙏✝
He played in two Eras of some of the greatest players in the history of the game: MICKEY MANTLE , FRANK ROBINSON, JOHNNY BENCH , HENRY AARON , TOM SEAVER , JOE MORGAN , REGGIE JACKSON , MIKE SCHMIDT, STEVE CARLTON , TONY PEREZ , WILLIE MAYS, WILLIE STARGELL , WILLIE McCOVEY , JIM PALMER , DAVE WINFIELD , GEORGE BRETT , EDDIE MURRAY, CARL YAZTREMSKI just to name a few and he is among these as one of the greatest to ever play the game of baseball
Worked security at a venue that A dinner with Pete Rose event. I escorted Pete around the venue and Pete was a complete A-hole the whole time. A 9-year-old boy asked Pete to sign a baseball for him and Pete refused, stating, "if I sign it for you, I'll have to sign for everyone". Even with this experience, and his gambling conviction, I believe Pete's baseball record should have him inducted into the baseball hall of fame. Gambling is a victimless crime although it can be an addiction, how many other players are in the hall of fame that had other addictions.
Breaks my heart that Pete wasn't allowed in! Big Red Machine was my team growing up while I played little league. One day in Las Vegas, me and a friend of mine talked to Pete while eating BBQ. It was a great lunch, that I will never forget!
I'm 37. I never knew Pete Rose actually went to prison for that stuff. It's a shame he didn't get put into the HOF disgusting. Seeing that MLB NFL etc. is now hand and hand with the gambling industry.
RIP to one of the greatest baseball players, ever. F*** the MLB leadership hypocrites. Pete Rose style baseball MADE their product in the 1970s, they banked megabucks on it, then stabbed him in the back. Charlie Hustle played 2b, 3b, LF, and ultimately 1b before managing. He is absolute LEGEND, and I wasn't even a Reds fan. If you loved baseball, you loved Pete Rose. Ray Fosse might be feeling a bit uneasy if there's a league wherever they are now though. 🤣🤣⚾
"They Called Him Charlie Hustle," performed by Phil Coley: They called him Charlie Hustle, and hustle he did The way he chattered, hit, fielded, and slid This old time player in the modern game Played like many now in the Hall of Fame I saw him play in the World series in '75 Pete played with such passion he made me feel alive Pete Rose broke Ty Cobb's record like match sticks - Four thousand, two hundred, and fifty-six hits! There's an empty spot in the Hall of Fame, Charlie Hustle deserves to claim How many more hits does he have to make? How many more records does he need to break? They called him Charlie Hustle, etc. Though he bet on baseball, baseball's cardinal sin He didn't bet against his team, he played to win There are more sinners than saints in the Hall of Fame - May Pete Rose be judged on how he played the game! They called him Charlie Hustle, etc.
Didn't know Pete has just died. I was never much of a sports fan, but even I know that keeping Pete out of the Baseball Hall of Fame is absolute bullsh!t. He didn't cheat. He didn't throw a game or a play. The man bet on his team to win. Pete Rose was a legend. Halls of Fame (like RNRHOF) are F'ing jokes.
Hey, who needs the baseball HOF? Pete Rose was in a class by himself, so there should be a Hall of Fame with only Pete Rose’s memorabilia in it, and no other player should be allowed to be in it except Ty Cobb because apparently Pete idolized him. Notice what he says in this interview: “Nobody knows as much about Ty Cobb as I do.” So Pete idolized Ty Cobb, therefore Ty should be a part of the Pete Rose Hall of Fame.
well known from spring training on with signs in the dug out no gambling , he knew that since he was a rookie , he was my favorite player, got most out of what he had.. head first slide into heaven pete, you can't be banned for gambling there.
If I had to pick a team to win a game for my life, and the choices were the best players from the hall of fame, or the best players NOT in it, I'd have to consider the latter group.
I know he bet on his own team but on a separate note who would have ever predicted all of these commercials for online gambling during a ball game? Everything is bad until they can tax it. Wonder what will be next
It's an absolute travesty that Pete Rose wasn't inducted into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame before he passed away. Shame on the baseball commissioners over the years, the HOF, and all the sportswriters that kept him out. Oh, and sportswriters should NOT determine who is inducted. Many didn't even play the game! Ex-baseball managers and perhaps players who were in the league for 10 years or more, should decide on who gets in. By the way, Ty Cobb bet on baseball and he is in the Hall of Fame. Do you know why? He threatened to kill those who knew and might have told on him.
Who here loves Pete Rose? I know I did. He was at his peak in late 60's and 70's, exactly when I was growing up. I loved only the Yankees and disliked every other team and player, except Pete Rose. He was so special.
He passed away today, 9/30/2024. May he rest in peace.

I didnt know Pete did jail camp?
Paul Hornung had to set out a season for gambling and is in the NFL hall of fame
Baseball, the world's moral authority 🙄 GTFOH.
Pete Rose = G.O.A.T.
Pete Rose 🇺🇸
Hey, who needs the baseball HOF? Pete Rose was in a class by himself, so there should be a Hall of Fame with only Pete Rose’s memorabilia in it, and no other player should be allowed to be in it except Ty Cobb because apparently Pete idolized him. Notice what he says in this interview: “Nobody knows as much about Ty Cobb as I do.” So Pete idolized Ty Cobb, therefore Ty should be a part of the Pete Rose Hall of Fame.
Funny they are talking about salaries then. They’d freak out at today’s entitlements.
Bob Uecker is in the hall of fame. And Pete never did.
well known from spring training on with signs in the dug out no gambling , he knew that since he was a rookie , he was my favorite player, got most out of what he had.. head first slide into heaven pete, you can't be banned for gambling there.
If I had to pick a team to win a game for my life, and the choices were the best players from the hall of fame, or the best players NOT in it, I'd have to consider the latter group.
carson SHOULD have had him on earlier. he was entertaining guest AND a baseball immortal.
Great guy. I have a picture of him that he signed. Cool guy. Human.. like all of us
Pete charged little kids for autographs🤑🤑🤑🤑
RIP to the 🐐
R.I.P.
RIP hall of famer
I know he bet on his own team but on a separate note who would have ever predicted all of these commercials for online gambling during a ball game? Everything is bad until they can tax it. Wonder what will be next
He played the game with heart not the money
It's an absolute travesty that Pete Rose wasn't inducted into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame before he passed away. Shame on the baseball commissioners over the years, the HOF, and all the sportswriters that kept him out. Oh, and sportswriters should NOT determine who is inducted. Many didn't even play the game! Ex-baseball managers and perhaps players who were in the league for 10 years or more, should decide on who gets in.
By the way, Ty Cobb bet on baseball and he is in the Hall of Fame. Do you know why? He threatened to kill those who knew and might have told on him.
Rip Hit King
God Bless Pete Rose.
5:37 Great moment, made me laugh.
Imagine if the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame banned artists for misconduct. There wouldn't be a hall of fame
biggest disgrace in mlb history that rose never got into HOF
Pete was a great player, running full out to first base after a walk was kinda wierd though.
RIP PETE!!!!
