Seems right within the realm of gambling degeneracy. Can you bet on the LLWS or high school sports? Seems like that would be the next milestone on the slippery slope.

After the Ohtani/Ippei thing, after Jontay, are any of these ESPN talking heads saying on their shows that maybe sports leagues should stop getting in bed with gambling companies? i mean a million normal people are saying it, you'd think it'd be a big topic of discussion in the media. Maybe someone's been talking about it but i just haven't seen it? But if it really has conspicuously been absent from discussion that tells you all you need to know, that none of the leagues are going back on this even in the face of what we've seen.

Hold your horses we don't want a few bad apples to spoil the bunch, it's a skill issue, no need to legislate players betting on their own games it's on them to avoid it and if we take it out we're destroying the spirit of the game - personal accountability, individual excellence, and so on. Now to the Draft Kings LOCK OF THE DAY presented by Charles Barkley

You joke, but the actual ESPN approach to discussing Ohtani was Stephen A Smith yelling about how the liberation of American gambling is our country's greatest freedom.

I've always kinda wondered why any athlete would want a big social media presence. They've always been subject to horrific comments just as a result of their play, and I suspect it gets much worse with gambling in the mix. I don't use twitter, but surely there's an option to not accept DMs from randos. Or do enough hot chicks or celebrities message them to offset the aggrieved white men? Only a matter of time some degenerate takes it upon themselves to kill someone who "cost them a bet" instead of telling them to do it themselves.

There was an article about it last year on ESPN: https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/35983485/social-media-abuse-gamblers-concern-college-athletes A backup playing in a blowout at a WCC basketball game missed a free throw and ended up with their DMs full of extremely specific death threats that led to the FBI going and talking to the guy who sent them, and that's just the start of it.

https://theathletic.com/5401027/2024/04/08/charlie-baker-ncaa-prop-betting-comments/?source=user_shared_article NCAA president isn’t happy about prop bets, shockingly enough, and how all TV coverage is just gambling now. quote:“Did any of you notice how much time was spent on cable TV about Caitlin Clark’s prop performance (after the) first (national semifinals) game leading into the second game?” Baker said. “Was that really what we should be talking about in the middle of a women’s Final Four? I think the answer for that for most people is no.”

Crazy Ted posted:They were reportedly betting on themselves to win the game. So, nothing really hinky going on - just incredibly loving stupid. that's the exact Pete Rose thing heh. If they bet on one game, then maybe they try harder at that game and go all out, then they recuperate the next game. Or if they were a manager or coach or trainer, they might play a player more in the bet-on game rather than the next one. There's all sorts of ways it can pretty critical threaten the integrity of it all

KICK BAMA KICK posted:lmao who was taking those bets? Were like both teams trying to throw the match at the same time cause how would you get any volume on that other than from the people who were in on it? https://www.vice.com/en/article/nzxwzb/soccer-match-fixing-has-infiltrated-canada 42% percent of games suspected of Match Fixing! If I had to guess who would take that much in bets on semi-pro soccer, it would probably some places in Southeast Asia that take bets on basically any sports league in existence. Places like that are why there have been services like InPlay TV (might be getting the name wrong) that allow you to latch on to questionable live streams for seemingly every sporting event you could possibly think of.

You know if the sports books are sending some off-the-books money to prop up the illegal streams community, I might have to reverse my position on the issue.

https://twitter.com/HPbasketball/status/1780235924271510002 Jontay Porter apparently wasn't betting on basketball, but he was still giving advice to bettors about games he was playing on. Odds are that he's still in really deep poo poo. https://www.thelines.com/shohei-oht...2C000%20wagers. Also, lost in the indictment against Shohei Ohtani's interpreter was that the $16 million in theft from Ohtani was part of $40 million in gambling debt he racked up. He made rougly 180 million dollars at the illegal sportsbook he was placing wagers through.

More specifically, they figured out he was tipping gamblers on his injury status and was betting on the NBA from one of his buddies' online sportsbook accounts. https://x.com/wojespn/status/1780633511575409127

full quote at the second tweet for us anti-click thru'ers:quote:Per NBA: In addition, from January through March 2024, while traveling with the Raptors or Raptors 905, the Raptors’ NBA G League affiliate, Porter placed at least 13 bets on NBA games using an associate’s online betting account. These bets ranged in size from $15 to $22,000, for a total of $54,094. The total payout from these bets was $76,059, resulting in net winnings of $21,965. None of the bets involved any game in which Porter played. lol lifetime ban all for 21k (im sure he woulda got the regardless if he bet on himself/basketball or not - I think there's one case he did but I just briefed an article). That family is cursed with stupid.

Bigger moron: Jontay Porter throwing his NBA career away over $22,000 and insider information? Or Roy Tarpley from back in the day getting reinstated after three years of his "Lifetime Ban" for rampant coke use, only to get another Lifetime Ban after half a season because he decided to replace coke with booze?
