I know a guy who took a ton of action from Pete Rose, and Art Schlister. He said Rose never never attempted to bet on, or against the Reds. He also said forget about a beard, no chance. He said Pete bet every other game every day though. He also said Pete was damn good at betting bases. However, Pete had to bet every game, every day, in every sport. He is actually relegated to "dead Beat" joints (They give $500 credit limits, and take known stiffs)in that area, because he owed everyone in the state. He claims Pete is the biggest deadbeat prick ever....Well next to Art Schlister, but that he wasn't betting his own games.
