4. Please let me know if I understand the story here.

Because I've always been confused about the whole deal.

Rose bet ON HIS OWN TEAM, and he bet that they would WIN. Correct?

If that's so, why the fuck is this even an issue? If he's betting on his team to lose, then as a manager he's in a great position to help himself win that bet, and that's terrible and he should never even be mentioned in the same breath with the Baseball HoF. But if he's betting on them to win, what the hell is the problem? I'm not even that big of a baseball fan and I think this is nonsense.
