Charlie Hustle... what a character.

[LukeL]

He just had to open his mouth.

[Right_Wing_Madman]

Pete Rose was always a dirtbag, but he makes a good point here.

[Mr. K]

Only if this interpreter gambled on baseball games instead of you

[Mean Daddy]

Pete, did he bet on baseball? Did he lie about it?

[MinorityRepublican]

LOL!

• Shohei Ohtani scandal could focus more attention on the 'Wild West' of sports betting, lawmakers say [03/25/2024]
• Shohei Ohtani to make statement on gambling scandal Monday, but MLB star won't take questions, per report [03/25/2024]
• More taxpayer money benefits pro sports owners amid 'stadium construction wave' [03/24/2024]

Vince Vaughn is now going to have to explain that it's not just Tom Brady who isn't allowed to bet on sports.

[Mariner]

Ohtani is likely the gambler and his interpreter took the fall for him.

[one guy in new jersey]

Mariner is smellin’ what Charley Hustle is cookin’!

[imabadboy99]

If he was white, he’d be suspended and banned from baseball

[nickcarraway]

Well even though MLB has a vested interest in making sure he plays, there might be an investigation, and it might come out.

[nickcarraway]

Does anybody remember when Michael Jordan retired from basketball for 2 years to play minor league baseball? Either that or it was an off the book suspension for gambling.

[nickcarraway]

In this case, I don’t think it’s about race. I think it’s the fact that he’s the best and most popular player in the sport and he’s the face of the sport. And the sport really needs him. But we will see what happens.

“Pete Rose was always a dirtbag, but he makes a good point here.”

Yes, he does.

[Paal Gulli]

Can you imagine living with the pain of knowing Cooperstown will vote him in to the Hall of Fame ... just as soon as he’d dead.

[Bullish]

Pete Rose... Now he had tools.

[nickcarraway]

A friend willing to be a pathy wasn’t one of his tools.

[Bullish]

I remember it... Jordan took a stab at Baseball because it was always a dream of his. At least that was the story, right? He did nothing of any interest in minor league baseball however, so he went back to hoops. I never heard of any suspension or gambling scandal.
