Pete Rose was one of my favorite baseball players.  One evening he was a the guest on the Larry King Show on CNN.  If you don’t remember that show, they took calls from viewers.  So, I called in.  They had someone screen the calls.  They asked my name and where I was from, and what my question was.  Then I waited about 20 minutes.  Finally, Larry King said, “Our next caller is Bob, from Athens, Georgia.”  I almost shouted at Larry King, “Athens, OHIO”.  Larry King went, “Oh, sorry!  What’s your question?”  Then I asked Pete some dumb question about fathers and sons, and how they can encourage their kids playing baseball.  I have no recollection of what Rose’s answer was.
