Apparently Pete Rose's agent was out of line and not the line in Las Vegas where people cash in chips to pay Rose to sign memorabilia for them.
Rose's agent told Steve Watkins of the Cincinnati Business Courier that Rose wanted to charger Watkins $500 to interview the "Hit King" about a book that has been written about him.

Rose called Watkins and gave his thoughts on a book by Kostya Kennedy (yes it is pronounced Cost Ya) titled Pete Rose the American Dilemma.
The American dilemma that Rose found himself in was that between greed and the fourth estate commonly known as the press.
As one wise man once said, "Even the Hit King can't survive a fight with people that buy ink by the barrel."
Now with bits and bytes spanning the globe faster than an Aroldis Chapman fastball, Rose's agent incorrectly pick the wrong battle. That is Rose's story and he's sticking to it, for now.
