1982 Topps Appreciation:  This weekend was supposed to center around Pete Rose with a Rose bobble-head giveaway on Friday night and his induction onto the Wall of Fame on Saturday night. As noted in an official Phillies press release, any Rose-related festivities, including the planned bobble head have been cancelled.
