Md. officials say relocation of workers to W.Va. delayed
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Maryland's congressional delegation helped delay plans to relocate hundreds of federal employees from their state to Parkersburg, those lawmakers announced Thursday.
The group - two senators and five representatives, all Democrats - had criticized plans to move 450 Federal Management Services employees from Hyattsville, Md., to the Bureau of Public Debt offices in Parkersburg.
Originally, Parkersburg was set to add those jobs by the beginning of 2015. Now, the move will not happen until at least the end of 2019, the Maryland lawmakers said.
West Virginia officials had cheered the original plan, which was announced in August.
Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., sought to share credit for the move at the time. He cited a July 10 letter he sent to U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner about maintaining and growing the Bureau of Public Debt in Parkersburg, where some 1,900 federal employees already work. Thursday night, Rockefeller made clear the jobs in Parkersburg will remain in Parkersburg.
"My priority remains making sure that the every single one of the 1,850 jobs currently at the Bureau of Public Debt in Parkersburg stays there, which I made very clear to Treasury Secretary Geither in a letter in July," Rockefeller said through a spokeswoman. "The Treasury Department has made clear that those jobs will stay in West Virginia."
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin had been effusive in August, calling the decision "great news" for the Parkersburg area. Last week, Tomblin Commerce Secretary Keith Burdette, a native of the Parkersburg area, pointed to the planned move as a sign of improvement in the state's job market.
But Maryland's congressional delegation was unhappy with the plan.
The state's two senators - Barbara Mikulski and Ben Cardin - sent Geithner a letter of their own in October to protest the move, which they called a "direct hit" to the middle class in the area, which is just miles from Washington.
"Moving 450 jobs out of Hyattsville would be a terrible loss for Prince George's County and the workers at FMS," the senators said in October. "These are good middle-class jobs for hundreds of trained accountants who have spent their careers in Maryland. It is expected that only 10 percent - 15 percent of all workers will actually be able to pick up and move their families to the communities where their jobs are moving."
Maryland's senators and five of its eight U.S. House members jointly announced the decision in press releases on Thursday.
Besides Mikulski and Cardin, the other lawmakers involved included Reps. Donna Edwards, Steny Hoyer, Chris Van Hollen, Elijah Cummings and John Sarbanes.
The delegation's comments suggested it might not make sense to move long-time federal employees from near the nation's Capitol, across the Potomac and to a new state in a city along the Ohio River.
"Prince George's County is ideally situated to serve the federal government and I will continue to work with the County and its business leaders to bring more federal facilities to the County," Cardin said in a statement Thursday.
Press aides to Tomblin, Rockefeller, Sen. Joe Manchin and Rep. David McKinley, who represents Parkersburg, were initially unaware of the news when reached Thursday evening.

"...Listed for 15 consecutive years with the top reported settlements and verdicts in Michigan... This remarkable record eclipes every other law firm in Michigan..." - Attorney At Law Magazine
"Michigan's largest law firm completely specializing
in serious automobile accidents"
-Michigan Lawyers Weekly
At Michigan Auto Law, our lawyers practice exclusively in helping people who've been hurt in car accidents , truck accidents and motorcycle accidents in the state of Michigan.
We understand that an auto accident can cause pain and sleepless nights. You may be too injured to return to work, and wondering who will pay for your medical bills or car damage. Maybe your insurance adjuster is giving you the run around and you're not sure of your No-Fault insurance rights.
Michigan Auto Law can help get your life back on track. Here, you will always be treated with the utmost respect, compassion and consideration. Our auto accident attorneys are only paid if we win your case. More than 98 percent of our lawsuits resolve in substantial settlements, because our focus is combined with an excellent trial record that defense attorneys pay to avoid, including the top-reported auto accident jury verdicts and settlements in Michigan.
Below, our personal injury lawyers have organized car accident, truck accident, and motorcycle accident legal resource centers to help you better understand Michigan's auto laws and your legal rights if you've been injured.
If you've been injured in a car accident in Michigan, you may be asking yourself, "Do I even need a lawyer in my situation?" Having the right car accident lawyer makes an enormous difference, not only in higher settlements, but in protecting your legal rights. Know the clock is ticking after a car accident. Michigan has a very strict one-year time limit for auto accident victims to recover important No-Fault insurance benefits like medical bills and wage loss. Call Michigan Auto Law at (877) 758-6578 for a free consultation.
Many large trucking companies have deep pockets - and they use them to avoid responsibility after they've caused preventable truck accidents. For instance, motor carriers often employ rapid response teams that arrive at the scene of a serious truck crash within hours, aiming to minimize damaging evidence. Trucking companies in Michigan can also legally destroy critical evidence if they don't receive notice to preserve it in time. That's why it's important to speak with an experienced truck accident attorney now.
Motorcycle accidents in Michigan can present special challenges for crash victims and their lawyers: Under Michigan's No-Fault insurance laws, a motorcycle is not considered a motor vehicle. Still, there are exceptions that allow a person injured in a motorcycle accident to recover No-Fault insurance benefits and compensation for pain and suffering. Our motorcycle accident lawyers can help you.
If you've been in an auto accident in Michigan, there will almost always be three potential sources for legal recovery:
Michigan Auto Law has helped people who were told they had no case by other lawyers, or that their case was too old. We invite you to read client testimonials or watch videos from real auto accident victims whose lives we helped change.
To better serve you, Michigan Auto Law has office locations in Farmington Hills, Sterling Heights, Detroit, Ann Arbor and Grand Rapids. Call (877) 758-6578 for a free consultation with an auto accident lawyer. You can also use our consultation form. Our top-rated accident attorneys are here for you - anytime you need us.
The results of my settlement were way beyond what I expected.
My lawyer Steve Gursten is very knowledgeable about auto law and what was involved with my type of case.
Steve and the entire office at Michigan Auto Law are very personable. They are wonderful. Steve and Larry Gursten are truly compassionate, and return calls within minutes - not days.
The results of my settlement were way beyond what I expected. I gave one figure, and Steve shot higher.
I have been very happy with this law firm, and will definitely continue referring auto accident victims their way.

Mitch Cahn is the owner and founder of Unionwear, an apparel and accessories maker—all exclusively made in the U.S. Despite years of panicked manufacturing headlines—Japan is making everything! No, It's China!—Cahn has kept his business open for 21 years and counting, all on American soil.
The company's first core customers were unions that wanted to support union wages and "Made in USA" goods. Then more recently, a new crop of customers began ringing Unionwear headquarters in Newark, N.J.
East Coast fashion designers—including those in NYC's garment district—were shopping for U.S.-based contract manufacturers. With labor costs in China rising and that country's own economy accelerating, small U.S. shop owners couldn't get the attention of overseas manufacturers. In an ironic twist, they couldn't afford a "Made in China" strategy.
"Now we have five to 10 callers a day about doing that kind of contract work. It's a groundswell," Cahn said. "And it's not patriotism. It's economics that's prompting them to call us," he said.
(Read More: 10 Cool 'Made in the USA' Products)
Cahn's changing business points to the shifting global economy. With labor costs in China forecast to climb further, more small-business owners are benefiting from, or actively pursuing, domestic manufacturing rather than overseas options, sometimes called reshoring.
And small shop manufacturers aren't just dusting off shuttered businesses, locked up after jobs moved to countries such as Japan in the 1970s. Young entrepreneurs are innovating from scratch, creating new online communities such as Maker's Row—and even turning to emerging platforms such as crowdfunding—to bankroll U.S. manufacturing operations.

Thompson Tee: Made in the USA
California entrepreneur Billy Thompson is another manufacturing innovator. In 2010, during the depths of the recession, Thompson began tinkering with layers of cooling fibers that eventually yielded sweat-proof shirts for men. Thompson Tee wants to expand—and remain on U.S. soil. But potential angel investors have requested production move offshore.
Thompson has politely declined those offers. He's instead turned to crowdfunding site Indiegogo to raise $25,000 in donations from the public to launch an undershirt line and one that will remain in America. Most men's undershirts are made overseas.
Many entrepreneurs, in fact, are mining crowdfunding to help manufacture American-made goods. A scan of the dominant crowdfunding site Kickstarter yields start-ups, making everything from apparel to bottle openers—all with prominent "Made in USA" messaging.
"I want to create jobs here in America," Thompson said. Every 2,000 T-shirts made equals one U.S. job, he estimates.

After Bangladesh
After the deadly collapse of a garment factory building in Bangladesh, more people have been asking questions about overseas-made apparel, often linked to sweatshops and unsafe working conditions. (Read More: How to Bring Ethics to Your Closet)
Some top European apparel labels including H&M have signed a safety-standards pact. But other major U.S. companies including the Gap and Walmart are pursuing independent solutions. They haven't signed the group safety accord, which binds retailers to improve safety at Bangladesh factories.
But searching for ethically-sourced goods in a global economy is tricky. And what percentage of a good's raw materials and labor must originate from the U.S. to merit a "Made in the USA" label?
"Right now there's no common, national definition for 'Made in the USA,' " said Harold Sirkin, a senior partner at Boston Consulting Group.
Even if you wanted to make American-made products, sourcing domestic raw materials is challenging in part because most online manufacturing resources are Asia-focused. But one Brooklyn, N.Y.-based start-up is changing that trend.

Maker's Row
Maker's Row is an online matchmaker that connects designers with industry-specific factories and suppliers—all based in the U.S. Product designers and small businesses can join the website for free, while manufacturers pay $200 a month.
Maker's Row founder Matthew Burnett is a designer and Detroit native. He relocated to New York City to work for major apparel labels, before launching his own watch line. His grandfather was a watchmaker so he's been around small shop manufacturing all his life.
But manufacturing his designs overseas was a costly headache. Orders and tweaks, shipped abroad, took weeks to resolve. "You add import taxes and it becomes such a gamble manufacturing overseas as a small business," Burnett said.
Maker's Row was launched in 2012 and breaks down the manufacturing process for small- to medium-sized ventures. The site allows entrepreneurs, many first-timers, to plug into a U.S. supply chain including factories in all 50 states.
Participating businesses straddle apparel and accessories. "It's harder to find a manufacturer in the U.S. than in China," Burnett said. Maker's Row plans to add other industries, and is wrapping up their seed round of funding.
The site includes about 10,000 small-business owners and roughly 1,800 manufacturers, including Cahn of Unionwear.
And a vibrant U.S. manufacturing sector means more domestic jobs. For a $1 million backpack order, for example, Cahn estimates he's able to hire 35 to 40 New Jersey workers. Less than 10 percent of American jobs come from manufacturing.

Can Americans Afford 'Made in the USA?'
Of course not everyone can afford American-made goods. U.S. consumer spending fell in April for the first time in almost a year, as personal income growth was flat. But attitudes are changing.
Earlier this year, Walmart announced it will boost sourcing of U.S. products. And more American and Chinese consumers are willing to pay a 10 percent to 60 percent premium for "Made in USA" goods, according to BCG research released last fall.
Meanwhile, a shift in manufacturing away from China will begin to take hold around 2015, according to BCG forecasts. Rising labor prices there will create a ripple effect.
Certain industries—in which labor is a lower percentage of total product costs—are more likely to pack up overseas for North America, including Mexico, where labor costs are stable. Product categories likely to reshore first include appliances and electronics, transportation, machinery, plastics, furniture and chemicals, BCG's Sirkin said.
But as the global economy evolves and shakes out new winners and losers, consumers are connecting the dots between inexpensive, overseas goods and evaporating U.S. jobs.
The recession has been especially brutal on chronically out-of-work or underemployed Americans. Unemployment that counts the discouraged and underemployed, sometimes called the "real" jobless rate, is still above 10 percent in many states.
"People used to thumb their nose at manufacturing jobs," said Unionwear's Cahn. But when the recession gripped the U.S. and the manufacturing sector was among the first to stand up and create jobs, many gave the sector a another look.
"As a country we can't all be servicing each other," Cahn said. "You have to have manufacturing."

BROWSVILLE, TEXAS––JANUARY 30, 2013-Tax season is upon us, and students from The University of Texas at Brownsville and Texas Southmost College will again be providing free tax assistance at the International Technology, Education and Commerce Center.
Volunteers from UTB and TSC, the Brownsville Independent School District and the United Way of Southern Cameron County will team up for the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program.
Volunteers will provide free tax assistance at the ITEC Center located at 301 Mexico Blvd. in Room F9 beginning Wednesday, Jan. 30 through Monday, April 15. The site will be closed March 9-16 for Spring Break.
"Last year, our student volunteers were very busy," said Pat Celaya, Assistant Master Technical Instructor and site Coordinator. "We completed more than 1,400 tax returns. We enjoy providing this service to our community."
Volunteers will be available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays and from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The site will be open from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturdays.

The free service is available to taxpayers who have low or limited income (under $51,000), individuals with disabilities, non-English speaking and elderly taxpayers.
Individual tax returns are filed electronically, which expedites an individual's tax refund and the service is free of charge.
Qualified individuals should bring the following documents to have their income tax returns prepared:
The ITEC Center is one of several locations set up to help taxpayers through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) and the Internal Revenue Service.
Other free tax preparation sites in Cameron County are the Brownsville Public Utilities Board, the Community Development Corporation of Brownsville, the Ethel Whipple Memorial Library in Los Fresnos and the Harlingen Outreach Center.
The university's Office of Financial Aid will have self-assistance tax preparation for students from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Thursday beginning Wednesday, Jan. 30 to Thursday, Feb. 14 in the lobby of Tandy Hall. For more information call 956-882-8277.

Pepe Escobar about Afghanistan
Host Per Fagereng speaks with Pepe Escobar, reporter for "The Asia Times" about Afghanistan.
An extreme traveler, Pepe's nose for news takes him to all corners of the globe.

Two weeks before September 11, while Pepe was in the tribal areas of Pakistan, "The Asia Times" published his prophetic piece, Get Osama! Now! Or else . (Aug 30, 2001).
Pepe was one of the first journalists to reach Kabul after the Taliban's retreat, and more recently he has explored and reported from "Axis of Evil" countries Iraq and Iran.

Hood River Development - Mr. Naito
Please ask Mr. Naito if his love of democracy extends to his business. Would he be willing to turn his development firm into a employee run cooperative corporation, giving ownership and organizational rights to employees. Mr. Naito's concern for democracy probably ends at doors to his corporation. Mr. Naito looks at this battle to develop the Hood River riverfront property as a public realtions battle. He will promise the community jobs and the city council financial support, and the council will eye the property tax revenue as a benefit to the community. If he is successful, once again we will be selling our responsibility to the land and the river for a short term gain. Mr. Naito cares little for the community, but operates on greed. If the environmental laws and regulations were not in place he would not be concerned at all with the impact of his development on the river, the wild life, and the ability of people to enjoy what nature have given us for free.
Bravo for having this debate, though. And controlling the civility of the debate.

An officer met with the store's loss prevention officer, who stated that while monitoring the in-store security camera, he observed a male subject, later identified as Toler, appear to be positioning a shopping basket containing a small video camera in the area of female shoppers wearing dresses. During the investigation, a total of six different victims were discovered and two were positively identified, police said.
Toler was released on $2,500 bail Monday.
An adjudicatory hearing is scheduled in the case for Aug. 27 in Loudoun County General District Court.

NewsRichard Lewontin's address
Recipient of Doctor of Humane Letters, Honorary
I promised Ellen that I would speak for a minute and a half; or was it an hour and a half? One minute.
So what I wanted to say is to the graduates. Everyone is searching around, and you will all search around in life, for a meaning: for some why are we here, what meaning do we have? For me, my chief source of meaning is my family, my wife, and the political struggles that she and I engaged in over all these years, and our children.
But there's another source of meaning that I want to talk about briefly. First of all, I always thought that my life had a meaning because I was a great teacher. And it's certainly true that I can get up in front of a lot of students and lecture them about the truth about the world, and I'm pretty good at that—but it wasn't until I came to Marlboro that I discovered what a bad teacher I was.
I came here in the early sixties, at Tom Ragle's invitation to give a talk—and after the talk, by the way, I should tell you, Tom and I went around the various buildings in the evening and turned off the lights, which was one of the jobs of the president at that time.
In my association with Marlboro over the years I've discovered that I'm not a very good teacher, because I cannot do what the wonderful teachers at Marlboro can do. Which is not to stand up in front of a lot of people and give them the right line, even logically, but to sit down with six or eight students—and together, work out, in an interaction, what the truth of the matter is, both by drawing the students out, by putting a little input in, the real interaction; that's what teaching is, as opposed to lecturing, and you are extremely fortunate in having been an institution where you've had real teaching, and not just lecturing.
The other thing that I want to say about meaning is what Ellen referred to, quite aside from political work and family life, and that is serving the community of people where you life. And I want to say that I mean serving, not leading. There's an important difference, hat I hope the undergraduates are one day discover.
You're all gonna be leaders of one kind or another, in one thing or another, but there's really a difference. I mean, leaders do serve—but there's real service, which, when you give it to your fellow community members, it really gives an immense meaning to your life.
Certainly in my case, I got more meaning out of the half-hour I spent crawling on my belly in a smoke-filled room in Frank Stout's house, pouring water on the fire that was about to consume the house, than I've had in eighteen years as president of the Marlboro fire company. I mean, there's just a difference. And I want to remind all of you, that that's the kind of meaning—real service and participation in the community in which you live—that will be an important source of meaning for you.
So in your leadership, don't forget that after your official duties are over, you should go around and turn off the lights in the buildings. Thank you.

THEY say a change is as good as a holiday, and now Knights coach Wayne Bennett hopes a holiday will inspire a change.
His team have lost five consecutive games, are languishing 14th on the premiership ladder and have plunged from pre-season premiership favourites to wooden spoon contenders in the space of half a season.
Yet instead of punishing them with hard yards on the training pitch, Bennett has ordered his troops to ''get out of town'' because they have the bye this weekend.
They are not due to resume training until Monday, in preparation for their crucial clash with Wests Tigers a week later.
It is understood players have scattered to all points of the compass. Some were rumoured to be heading overseas.
Bennett himself is expected to spend at least part of the week at home with his family in Brisbane or visiting his farm in Queensland's Darling Downs.
And before Knights fans react with astonishment, it should be noted that the week off was scheduled well before Saturday's 32-16 loss to Canberra – and that Bennett employed the same tactics in 2006 and 2010, when he won premierships with Brisbane and St George Illawarra.
As Bennett wrote in his 2008 autobiography: ''One of the crucial aspects of that year was being given a bye after the last Origin game, which meant we could give the guys seven days off ... we wanted to try to avoid the post-Origin slumps of previous years.''
Bennett said he was warned by strength coach Dan Baker that the Broncos may struggle when they resumed, but it would pay dividends at the business end of the season.
''I'd tried things and they hadn't worked,'' Bennett said. ''Dan said we had to take the risk and freshen them up ... Dan said we wouldn't perform for the first couple of games after the break, but then we'd start to play good footy.
''His prediction was pretty right.''
They duly lost their next five games but recovered to beat Melbourne in the grand final.
As former Broncos skipper Darren Lockyer recalled in his life story: ''Some blokes went to the coast.
''A few just put their feet up at home.
''Darius Boyd and Karmichael Hunt actually flew to Thailand for a holiday.
''It was open slather, the only rule being we were not allowed to enter the Broncos' football club premises until training recommenced.''
Players were even threatened with fines if they were seen at Brisbane's training base.
But worryingly for Knights fans, Lockyer noted: ''To go an entire week without passing or kicking a football left us lacking cohesion and the Cowboys [their next opponents] made us pay.''
Bennett stuck to the same formula when he arrived at the Dragons three years later.
As superstar fullback Darius Boyd noted in 2010, in the lead-up to the Dragons' premiership triumph: ''That week off can really break it up for you.
''Then you can concentrate on the rest of the season and really nail it.
''[Bennett] just wants you to get away and have a pretty good break.
''I'm pretty sure that has put us in good stead.''
One way or the other, it could be a gamble that makes or breaks Newcastle's season.
If Bennett's players come back energised, they might finally start playing to their potential.
Alternatively, if, like Brisbane in 2006, they are rusty after the week off, then things could start to turn very ugly, very fast.
Meanwhile, Boyd was not interested in discussing Newcastle's woes when he spoke to reporters after Queensland's training sessions yesterday, repeatedly stating: ''I'm concentrating on Origin. I'm here to play for Queensland.''
Boyd scored Queensland's opening two tries in their Origin I victory.
He is yet to cross the stripe in 12 games with Newcastle.
''It was good to get a couple of tries,'' he said.
''It makes my job a lot easier with the best players in the world.''

At Efm the producer revealed that lee Daniels the paperboy will have its world premiere at Cannes. Cosmopolis, on the road and moonrise kingdom have already announced French premiere dates that are the same dates as Cannes, so all 4 films are pretty much locks at this point.

What about "What Maisie Knew", the modern-day-Henry-James-adaptation by "The Deep End" directors Scott McGehee and David Siegel, starring Julianne Moore, Steve Coogan and Alexander Skarsgard ? I know it's a longshot, but I read somewhere that the producer is hoping to premiere it in Cannes.
Neil | February 21, 2012 3:56 AM
hm...might be the first time Wong Kar-Wai gets placed to some category other than In Competition, if the film turns out to 1) actually make it in time and 2) be more commercial. Yet again, Johnnie To was allowed In Competition for "Vengeance" a few years back, and that film was pretty darn mainstream.

I didn't think I could possibly squeeze anymore sarcasm into that last post, and then you tell me about the Air Force and Navy?
I'm gonna go get the aluminium foil and make a hat so the aliens can't read my thoughts....
I'm still debating whether to serve my baked disc with Cabernet or Merlot.
No Post Production Modifications.
Dyeing is illegal by that remark. Its a modification done after production. On top of the fact Dyeing CAN alter the disc as he is doing in the oven, because you use heat to dye. So can I start penalizing everyone throwing dyed discs? Plus Stick-um is legal for play and thats a noticeable thickness as well. And on top of that if theres holes in the discs arent they illegal? So for that matter blizzards could be sketchy. Some of these rules should be called the "asshole rules" Because only assholes call people on them.
Dyed discs do not have a detectable thickness. They are Ink based and not paint.
Yes buts its "Post production modification." Nonetheless
Also then baking the disc has not detectable thickness so is that legal now?
Exactly, the post never intended to be about competition or if its legal or not in competitive play. Leisure rounds can be played with a dinner plate if your out messing around or just looking to try something different. There seems to be a crusade of players who expect everything in the sport to be perfect, including player etiquette......its just not gonna happen! Its suppose to be fun, and modifiying a disc is interesting. It doesnt mean you have to be sneaky and try to use it in competition, its just cool to be so addicted to the sport that it would dawn on you as a good idea to bake a disc! LOL
Word Josh. The disc really sucked and it was my first year playing.
Just don't tell people your Baking your Disc's !!! :)
i know i have dyed discs and many of them and it alters the flight path. i have dyed my destroyers when they get understable and when i put a dye job on them it brings some stability back.... its cool for people to alter discs for fun thats how innova invented the new blizzard plastic, a few years ago a disc with air bubbles in it was an xout and couldnt be used in tournament play. now they put air bubbles in them and altered the disc and now its cool and legal. im not sayin.... im just sayin.

TEAMS: New York Yankees
New York Yankees outfielder Ichiro Suzuki notched his 4,000th professional hit on Wednesday night – 2,722 in MLB and 1,278 in Japan. All-time hit king Pete Rose told Bob Nightengale of USA Today that Ichiro's hits in Japan shouldn't count. "He's still 600 hits away from catching Derek Jeter," said Rose to Nightengale, "so how can he catch
Ichiro NEVER said anything about the hits so why do people continue to say this doesn't count for this reason or that reason. drop it
Rose is such a moron...nobody is comparing his 4000+ hits to a MLB record....simply that he has over 4000 hits as a 'professional'. The Japanese League IS a pro league, because they get paid. And it's no disgrace to have that many hits in Japan, they know how to pitch as evidenced by some of the best arms in MLB being Japanese pitchers. The reason Rose is saying anything at all is to try to keep the spotlight on his sorry asss. Hey Pete, YOUR NEVER GETTING INTO THE HALL OF FAME...NEVER!!! So stop making a fool of yourself, even if it's all your good at right now.
Well Giantsrepeat,he's done a lot more than you'll ever do.Wo's your favorite?A-rod or Micky Mantle?Pete Rose belongs in the hall of fame,bottom line!!!
Your right, he should be in for the numbers he put up, but keep dreaming, he's never getting in because he broke the cardinal rule in MLB. Since his career ended he has become a pathethic laughing stock. If he had manned up when he was caught instead of spending a decade lying like a five year old he may have gotten in by now. All he had to say was that he has a gambling problem and needs help, then maybe...just maybe baseball would have given him some consideration. But EVERYONE hates a LIAR!!!! When he finally confessed ten years later it was too late. So he's where he belongs, on the outside looking in. And that's a shame because he does deserve to be in for what he did between the white lines...it's what he did outside of them that cost him dearly.
Pete Rose was a Fantastic baseball player. But he is a scumbag as a person. He broke the rules of baseball and he knew it. So I say, **** you Pete, you are a cheat.
Pete Rose the baseball player is the greatest hits player to ever play the game. Pete Rose the person is the greatest guy
to keep running his mouth. Hey Pete, take one for the team and
be quiet.
If these hits count than, Warren Moon should hold the records for playing proball beating all the others in the NFL
I agree with all of the above
