btownqb Posted August 8, 2022 Report Share Posted August 8, 2022 I don't understand why that reporter would ask that. Strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was offended by the fact that a man who'd allegedly statutorily raped an underage girl was invited to the celebration... If Joe Paterno was alive today and attended a Penn State football function, you think he wouldn't get a question about Jerry Sandusky?

I guess I'm biased because I despised Pete Rose even before those allegations were made... Was he a great ballplayer? Yes... Is he a despicable human being? Yes...

Like she's not threatened, at all. She chose to find her 5 mins of fame. I mean its fine, just strange to me. Yeah some superstars aren't good people. She made the event about Rose, and took away from the other Phillies. They weren't there to talk about allegations from 50 years ago.

There is irony in there somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why tf would a reporter expect that to happen, especially at an event like that? If true, I now see why Knight straight up couldn't stand writers.
