I always thought Rose was "a goat" for no good reason. I mean, what did baseball want to prove by ostracizing him? That it has a clean act. P-shaw!

Personally, I liked the way Rose played. He brought life to a game that goes in real quick spurts with a lot of non-action action in between.

Betting on sports? Big deal. We have Ray Caruth shooting and killing his pregnant ex-girlfriend, hockey players killing teammates in their Ferraris, and a potential rapist as the highest-voted player in the NBA right now.

Hmmm...

Who was the catcher Rose slid into during the All-Star game and subsequently ruined the guy's career? That's the only time I thought "Hustle" went overboard. Being competitive's one thing, but the All-Star game? It's sort of a "look-at-me" fest, IMO.
