FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BetCBSports POSTS ODDS ON: “WILL PETE
ROSE BE REINSTATED TO MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL? WILL HE MANAGE A
MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL TEAM AGAIN? WILL HE BE INDUCTED INTO THE
BASEBALL HALL OF FAME?
(Zapote, Costa Rica, 06 January 2004)-There were many people who
truly thought this day would never come. There were many who hoped
it never would. January 5, 2004, will forever be known in sports
history as the day Pete Rose finally admitted to something, that
everyone in the free world seemed to know, except Rose himself.
That is, he bet on the Cincinnati Reds while managing the club.
Unfortunately, the news was not much of a surprise to the legions
of baseball fans, which have debated one of sports' most
controversial issues, ever, for over 14 years.
Rose, who regardless of his indiscretions, has always been
considered one of the greatest ever to play America’s favorite
pastime. Baseball's all-time hits leader was banned from the game
for life in 1989, after allegations surfaced that forced
Commissioner Bart Giamatti, to conclude that Rose did, in fact,
"bet on baseball." Since that day, Rose has vehemently denied ever
betting on baseball, yet alone on his team. "Charlie Hustle", who
would have been a sure-fire, first-ballot, Hall-of-Famer, had he
not been banned for life from the game he claims he loved, is
thought by many, to be a disgrace to the sport, for betting on his
own team.
In his autobiography, "My Prison Without Bars," Rose admits
that he gambled on the Cincinnati Reds while he was the team's
skipper. "I've consistently heard the statement: “If Pete Rose
came clean, all would be forgiven," he writes. Well, I've done
what you've asked. The rest is up to the Commissioner, (Bud Selig),
and the big umpire in the sky."
"To be perfectly honest, no matter how great a baseball player
you think Pete Rose is, the bottom line is that he's just a
degenerate gambler, who looks at enshrinement into the Hall of
Fame as the biggest bet that he could ever win, says BetCBSports
Senior Odds Maker, Dan "The Man" Johnson.”How sweet the irony,
that we at BetCBSports (www.betcbsports.com),
are offering fans the opportunity to disgrace Pete Rose this time
around, by betting on him."
BetCBSports is proud to release odds
on whether Pete Rose will be reinstated into Major League
Baseball? If he is reinstated, will he manage again? Will he be
elected into the Hall of Fame?

ABOUT
BetCBSports.com
BetCBSports
is a privately held, offshore, online, gaming company. It is
fully licensed and is located in beautiful San Jose, Costa
Rica, a major center of online gaming. It got into the
business in a very deliberate and independent way. Nine years
ago, several staffers, now management of
BetCBSports, got together to review the
state of the online gambling industry. They quickly concluded
that there was extraordinary potential for success, and they
also realized there was a clear need for a professional,
secure and service driven facility for the growing numbers of
online players.
Characteristically, the
BetCBSports planners got off to a quick
start.
BetCBSports created a modest internet
business that appeared to meet the perceived need. During the
intervening years since then, it has continually proved it has
the right formula, because it has grown and improved every
year. Today, it is part of an expanding affiliate network that
includes over fifty sports book companies.
BetCBSports
now offers online and telephone sports betting, casino
gambling, horse racing and Poker rooms. It specializes in
propositional wagering, in fact, it appears to be setting the
example and leading the way.
Behind the action and the play offered by
BetCBSports is a knowledgeable and
respected staff. They recognize the universal fact that
players, i.e., their many guests, come first. Customer
service, we are told, is more than a polite catch-phrase, it
is more like a way of life at
BetCBSports. The staff continually strive
to ensure the security, privacy, and quick service for all of
their customers.
