Pete Rose is on the telephone.

 

Nothing personal, but one day he sure wishes the guy on the other end of the line was someone who could actually change his fate, and not just another reporter.

Rose badly wants to talk to new Commissioner Rob Manfred and state his case, but until he does, and looks him in the eyes, how can he possibly predict whether his lifetime ban from baseball will ever be lifted?

 

"I wish I could tell that I know what he'll do,'' Rose tells USA TODAY Sports, "but I've never met him. I've never seen him.

"But I'd love to talk to him.''

Manfred, who said that he has never reviewed the case involving Rose and won't share any private opinion, is open to a meeting. Yet, there is no timetable, and it will be directly handled with Rose.

yes, I know what it means.

 

 

I was giving Jamie the benefit of the doubt that he maybe meant something else than complaining that a link almost 3 years old wasn't still in service.   :)

 

:doh:
