0:00.0	Welcome to Deadcast, a podcast taking you through the week of sports lunacy.
0:06.0	Here are Deadspin, editor-in-chief Tim Marchman and columnist Drew McGarry.
0:11.0	Shocking news from the world of baseball Marchman, shocking news that will blow your fucking nuts off.
0:17.0	Are you prepared for the shocking news?
0:20.0	Hell no, man, my nuts need to be safe.
0:23.1	Well, it turns out that that ESPN has acquired proof that when Pete Rose or Pete Rose has
0:30.0	gambled on baseball. I'm as shocked as you are. My nuts are just flying right out of my scrotum
0:35.1	right now. I'm so blown away.

2:00.6	like that, like bad stuff.
2:02.8	So do you think that they will, these apologists will stay tied on and say, hey, man, everybody
