MLB legend Pete Rose says that he was much better at football than baseball.
Pete says growing up, he simply wasn't into school ... but that he did well enough so he could remain eligible to play.
However, looking back, Rose -- who almost attended the University of Tennessee -- said if he knew then what he knows now ... he'd have put more emphasis on his education. "If I was growing up, I would have been a ding dong," Pete said,"Because I just didn't give a darn about school ... I just went to school and got your grades enough to stay eligible."
"But if I was playing today in high school, I'd probably try to get really good grades knowing what's ahead of ya as far as going to college. We didn't worry about going to college back in the '50s and early '60s." Rose -- who spent 7 seasons as a manager for the Cincinnati Reds -- had a message for kids who might have the same feelings towards school as he did when he was younger.
