Kristofferson's Why Me, with backing vocal;s by Rita Coolidge and Larry Gatlin, went to number one on the country chart and #16 on the Hot 100 in July 1973. Among Kristofferson's other hits are Josie, Loving Arms, They Killed Him, Nobody Loves Anybody Anymore and (with Rita Coolidge) A Song I'd Like To Sing.

Third. My dad loved his music including his singing. I preferred he didn't sing. But his song writing is outstanding. My favourite is "Sunday Morning Coming Down" as sung by Johnny Cash of course.

Third on Mutombo. He was awesome with the sixers during the Iverson era.

Plus that one commercial from a couple years ago was amazing.

Just ask (the ghost of) Pete himself!

In Rose's memoir, he admitted for the first time publicly to betting on baseball. He also admitted to betting on the Reds, the team for whom he was the manager ... There were games on which he placed bets in which he also played.
