Dowd was constantly meeting with Rose’s criminal lawyer during this time; thus, Rose’s claims that he was unaware have been outright lies for the past fifteen years.
Dowd’s next step was to try to find a teammate of Rose’s that would be able to speak with him and convince him to listen to the investigators.
Dowd’s theory is that Selig is acting on behalf of George Steinbrenner who wants to ensure a place for himself in the Hall of Fame despite having been banned from baseball in the early 1990s [ed.

 ESPN.com: MLB - Dowd: Rose 'probably' bet against Reds while manager
Dowd's comments came during a lengthy telephone interview with the Post and were published in Thursday's editions of the newspaper.
Dowd, a Washington D.C.-based lawyer, investigated Rose for commissioners Peter Ueberroth and Giamatti in 1989.
Dowd said Thursday he was asked by the Post whether he came across any evidence that Rose gambled against his team.

 Pete Rose: Still Battling a Losing Cause | BaseballLibrary.com
Dowd, a special counsel for Commissioners Peter Ueberroth and A. Bartlett Giamatti, and his law firm were retained and empowered by the Office of the Commissioner to investigate Rose on February 23rd, 1989 after months of quiet rumors involving Rose’s association with gamblers had reached Commissioner Ueberroth.
Dowd wrote in his report, "Betting on baseball by a participant of the game is corrupt because it erodes and destroys the integrity of the game of baseball.
In the report, Dowd wrote, "Rose’s admission to the Reds’ assistant clubhouse manager in March 1989 that he was indeed placing bets with Janszen contradicts Rose’s repeated assertions in his deposition that he never bet with Janszen and was not aware of any betting by Janszen".

 CNNSI.com - Baseball - Baseball states its case against Rose - Tuesday December 10, 2002 08:52 PM
Dowd's report concluded that Rose had bet on baseball, and in particular, on games of the Cincinnati Reds during the 1985, 1986 and 1987 seasons.
Also corroborating Janszen's story, according to the Dowd report, are phone records showing calls Janszen made to bookies and sports betting lines that coincide with game starting times and dates in his betting records.
Dowd says everything in his report is corroborated three different ways.

Now, at the age of 56, Dowd realizes that he might be best remembered for a curious case that he didn't think much of when he first accepted it: The case against Pete Rose.
It was at this point that Dowd remembers Rose "turning a little green." Still, the Hit King refused to admit that he had done anything wrong or had a problem.
Dowd, who was present at that final meeting, emphasized that even though Giamatti allowed such language to be in the settlement papers, the commissioner told Rose and his attorneys that, if asked, he would acknowledge that Rose had gambled on baseball if asked.

 October 31, 2002 - Evaluating the Dowd Report
Still, the claim that Dowd went out of his way to find a polygrapher who would produce the results Dowd wanted is a heavy one, and warrants more consideration and evidence than the flip reference James makes to this being true.
That the Dowd Report includes many checks to tie Rose to bookies, and those checks were mostly in football season and in March, does nothing to prove or disprove the central issue of whether Rose bet on his own games.
The Dowd Report does not say that Janszen did not begin placing baseball bets until mid-May, and further, it does not say that Rose had broken up with his previous runner/lackey (Gioiosa) in January or February.

John Dowd, the lawyer who led the investigation into Rose's alleged gambling and prepared the famous "Dowd Report" that condemned Charlie Hustle to a lifetime ban, also urges caution.
Dowd confirmed baseball's worst fears: Rose, one of the game's most popular players, had committed the biggest sin a baseball player could commit: He bet on baseball - including games he managed.
Rose was polite but repeatedly denied he bet on baseball when confronted by Dowd with the evidence against him during a deposition conducted in the cafeteria of a Catholic convent in Dayton, Ohio, in April 1989.

We just live and die in it.") Dowd, who as a reporter was assigned to cover the elder Bush, seems to have a soft spot for the guy even as she describes a president with no plans to do anything but remain president.
Dowd's cleverness sometimes gets in the way of clarity, and one occasionally wishes she'd quit kidding around and say something substantive, especially since the reader of Bushworld will likely be several years removed from the news that inspired a particular column.
Dowd has assembled a compendium of her columns that should be required reading for the masses.

According to John Dowd, the two most damning pieces of evidence in the case (apart from the testimony of the aforementioned felons) were the phone records connecting Rose, Janszen, and Peters, and the three betting slips said to belong to Rose.
According to Dowd, the handwriting analysis completed during his investigation proved that they were written by Rose, and one of the slips even contained a single fingerprint belonging to Pete.
Dowd leapt to the conclusion that Rose was guilty, and twisted and bent the facts to support that conclusion...

A former Marine captain, Dowd earned his law degree at Emory University in 1965 and later worked for the Justice Department as a trial attorney in the tax division and chief of an organized crime strike force.

 Dowd scoffs at new Rose book
NEW YORK - John Dowd does not think Pete Rose read the report he compiled for baseball that led to the career hit leader's permanent ban from the sport.
But he also repeatedly challenges the report Dowd submitted and the accusations made by his former associates before he accepted a permanent ban in August 1989.
Dowd said one of the lowest points after the investigation came in 1998, when Major League Baseball filed a complaint with the District of Columbia Bar contending that Dowd had violated lawyer-client privilege.

 QandO: Maureen Dowd - literate irrelevance
There is very little upon which both the right and left side of the blogosphere agree, but there is one: Maureen Dowd is an astounding hack, and the only explanation for her presence on the NYTimes op-ed page involves some very compromising pictures of Arthur Sulzberger Jr and a less-than-reputable (probably) vertebrate.
Dowd's dedication to accuracy is as legendary as that of Michael Moore, and her pursuit of style over substance makes her columns as politically important as a fashion show.
That Maureen Dowd has just recognized this since 09/11/01 is dispositive of nothing.

The case against Rose, as presented by the Dowd Report, was flawed.
In light of baseball's nonfinding and the flaws in the Dowd Report, there certainly was the chance Rose was innocent of the charge.
According to his accusers in the Dowd Report, a document whose credibility has improved significantly this month, Rose began betting on baseball in 1985, the year he broke Cobb's hits record, when he was player-manager with the Cincinnati Reds.

The ''evidence'' is Dowd's report to Baseball 10 years ago.
Dowd was hired by Baseball to investigate allegations that Rose had bet on baseball.
Among other findings, ''the Dowd Report'' said that Rose had placed bets on the Reds 52 times in 1987; that he bet $10,000 a day on baseball games (and, some days, more); and once borrowed $47,000 from a man operating a cocaine ring.

Dowd understandably became very angry, and he became convinced that Rose was guilty, and he wrote a prosecutor's brief intended to prove that Rose was guilty."

The Dowd Report is comprehensive and proves without doubt that Pete Rose bet on baseball.
According to the report, Rose didn't bet on the Reds on April 23 (versus the Padres), April 25-26 (Astros), June 5 (Dodgers), June 10 and 23-25 (Giants), June 15 (Astros) and July 4-5 (Mets).
Another curious thing about the Giants and Charlie Hustle is this: The Dowd Report indicates that Rose bet on 387 baseball games between April 8 and July 5, 1987, and most of the time he went with front-runners or teams with winning records.

When a prosecutorial agency like Dowd wants to go after somebody they just get these witnesses -- now I'm not saying that every one of their witnesses were lying -- but I'm saying that you can't rely on people who have an axe to grind.
The Dowd report was completed by a prosecutorial agency.
Clearly the Dowd report asserts that he bet on his own team but Major League Baseball did not make that finding and therefore he at that time was eligible to make application.

That might result in Rose being allowed to attend the opener in Cincinnati, and it would be the prelude to a meeting later in the season between Rose and Selig.
However, a source familiar with the case said "there has never been a discussion of him acknowledging the Dowd Report." Rose would be required to admit he gambled on baseball, apologize for his conduct and apologize for the damage he did to the sport.
But numerous sources have indicated he would not agree to admitting to all the charges in the Dowd Report.

Jayson Stark of ESPN wrote in a column August 7th that Reds owner Carl Lindner intends to hire Rose as the team's manager and has agitated for Rose's reinstatement for some time.
Dowd concluded that Rose had bet on games he was involved in, citing such evidence as telephone records including calls to a bookie from the Reds clubhouse, bank records of large payments, and betting notes that handwriting experts identified as Rose's, which matched records of bookie Ron Peters.

However, the DA may want to limit the scope of public knowledge of how they gathered the information; perhaps illegal wire taps were used, or an undercover agent might be put in harms way if a case went to trial, or a larger investigation would be hindered by the (relatively) minor charges to the individual.
I am skeptical of the Dowd Report, and I intend to start going deeper until either my skepticism is conquered or borne out.
On May 11, 1989 the Commissioner provided a copy of the Report to Peter Edward Rose and his counsel, and scheduled a hearing on May 25, 1989 to give Peter Edward Rose an opportunity to respond formally to the information in the report.
