Pete Rose, the ugly face of sports betting

For many years I stayed away from Sports Betting in general largely because it had a foul taste to it when i thought about it.

Largely because of the Pete Rose scandal. He was one hero I looked up to in baseball that pretty much ruined the entire sport for me.

Pete Rose was banished from baseball for allegedly illegal activity involving betting on games he played, and later managed in. This fact alone left a bitter pill in my throat that lingers ever so gently even today.
