Rose gambled on Reds every game he managed

So he tells ESPN.

There are holes in this. It’s hard to know why anyone takes Rose statements seriously, or at the very least, doesn’t take some time to contrast them against fairly-well-established evidence.

Harder to understand is Rose’s reasons for doing this - why he’s constantly telling mostly-truths with obvious ommissions, or taking steps towards coming clean but trying not to admit to the worst of it (for instance, the “I bet on baseball but never from the clubhouse” statement).

I don’t know how Rose manages to get taken off the ineligible list at this point. If Selig does retire, he’ll get another shot at it, but every time he does an interview it seems to set his case back.
