Greg Vaughn and James Harris keep it real, diving straight into the controversial legacy of baseball’s biggest hustler, Pete Rose. The man played with heart, grit, and a passion that was unmatched on the field. Pete Rose—aka “Charlie Hustle”—did what few could, playing 97% of his games and becoming one of the greatest to ever touch the diamond. But despite all that, the Hall of Fame still won’t let him in. Greg and James get personal, talking about the politics and double standards that still keep Rose out while today’s leagues are making millions off the same gambling world that brought him down.
From their own pro sports backgrounds, they break down why the system isn’t right. The conversation shifts to how athletes—especially Black athletes—are often held to different standards and forced to play the media game. Pete didn’t do that, and now he’s paying the price. They reflect on what it means for legends like Dikembe Mutombo, another icon who gave everything to his people and his game, and why it’s so important to give flowers before someone passes. This episode isn’t just about sports—it’s about respect, legacy, and how society’s rules don’t always treat our athletes fairly. Shouldn’t players be the ones deciding who gets into the Hall of Fame?
Tap in and listen as Greg and James take you through the highs, lows, and real talk about life on and off the field. You don’t want to miss this one.
