>A woman said she had a sexual relationship with the former baseball star Pete Rose in the 1970s, starting when she was 14 or 15 years old, according to testimony submitted to a court Monday.
>The testimony was presented by the defense as part of a federal lawsuit Rose filed last year in Philadelphia against a lawyer whose investigation led to Rose’s being kicked out of Major League Baseball for gambling.
>Rose, the major leagues’ career hit leader, contends that the lawyer, John Dowd, defamed him in 2015 by saying on the radio that Rose had raped girls age 12 to 14 during spring training. Rose, 76, has acknowledged having a relationship with the woman beginning when she was 16, the age of consent in Ohio.

“Wild” doesn’t even begin to describe the last 24 hours. In all sports. Wtf
wtf, I swear I legit just looked him up on wikipedia like 20 minutes ago because I was bored and looking thru old baseball stuff. That’s actually terrifying

Wonder if we see him in the HoF next time the old timers committee meets, since he had an unofficial lifetime ban he agreed to stop further gambling investigation.

RIP Pete Rose, one of the best players of all time, ALL HUSTLE

Never saw himself make the HOF and now never will – it’s weird that as long as he was around, there was at least talk of a glimmer of hope that he would be reinstated. I wonder what this does to Barry Bonds’ chances.

RIP to the all-time hits leader
Rest in peace, Charlie Hustle.
RIP hit/gambling king
Today needs to chill wtf. RIP to a legend who deserves to be in the hall
OH MY
I didn’t have that on my bingo card for today
Too much baseball news for one day
Damn, weird day with him and Mutumbo.
And Gavin Creel, although that isn’t sports related.
First Dikembe in the NBA and now Pete Rose. Crazy day.
WTF is today
This might be the most chaotic day in baseball history
Not giving a RIP to a pedophile
Have fun in hell big dog, don’t care what he did on the field
Damn, Mutombo and Rose on the same day. Legends passing.
One fewer pedophile on the planet
Now we will find out in years to come the age-old question of: will he be admitted to the HOF after he passes?
jeez, what a day…
I just saw Mutombo died too. What’s going on?
Well shit.
Wow
Nimmo’s lack of hustle killed him
One less pedo
Now that’s he’s dead I’m okay with him still never getting into the HoF.
Hope he enjoys playing baseball in hell with his gasoline suit.
Didn’t have time to cash in his parlay
Don’t let any glowing obituaries full of descriptions of Rose as a “polarizing figure” or other bullshit distract you from what a massive piece of shit Rose was.
