Pretty intensely sad tbh

Yikes. Things are about to get bad.

Good :)

The addiction’s getting worse. 💀 Pete’s back in Cincy as Player-Manager, I can see the crash course he’s on, though. Gambling with dangerous people, and now about to get into Gold’s Gym, full of coke and steroids. Yikes. Tommy Gioiosa is hooked on ‘roids, which is scary. And Pete is about to start going to that gym. Feeling uneasy

Divorce from Karolyn. RIP. Terry Rubio demanding money from Pete, RIP. Phillies are big winning though. And Pete passed Musial’s hitting record! Tommy Gioiosa is STRUGGLING trying to find any baseball team that likes him, I think he’s mid.

Introduction of Tommy Gioiosa

The Reds finally won a world series! WOO! No longer cursed! However, there is trouble in the water. Pete is in an affair with an UNDER AGED GIRL, cheating on his wife, Karolyn is starting to argue with Pete. And Pete has found another gambling “friend”, the Cuban. Act IV: The Fall

The incredible comeback season of 1970! Lost to the A’s though :/

The Astros trade! Joe Morgan for Tommy Helms :) Pete Rose starting to cause trouble, even though people were more concerned with Morgan

Act III: Fame. Introducing Al, the bookie who’s big in Cincy. Pete Rose is angry and lost, lost his dad and the world series. Rule 21(d): No gambling rule, Pete Rose most definitely knew this rule. The drama continues!
