“Say it ain’t so, Joe.”
The tip of the iceberg.
The only good Indian is an arrested Guardian.
Push sport betting as much as possible and this is what you get. All sports at all levels probably have people fixing games/results.
Incredible that players making more money than most can imagine would do this.
I’m a Cleveland Indians fan and I say ban them for life. Pete Rose did less and got banned for life.
They should be banned for life.
If they’re just the tip of the iceberg, investigate the hell out of the rest involved and ban them all, no matter how many.
Clase, baseball’s dominant closer from 2022 through 2024, is making a base salary of $4.5 million this year. While Ortiz is on a one-year deal, Clase is signed through 2026 with $10 million club options for 2027 and 2028. Ortiz earned $782,600 in salary last season.
Lifestyles more expensive than their earnings and looking for some easy way to pay for it. Man approaches and says “hey, you wanna make a deal”.
Not only corrupt and criminal but stupid. Clase got a few thousand dollars and threw away a multimillion dollar contract.
Disney Signs DraftKings as ESPN’s New Sports-Betting Partner
Disney wants to be your cradle to grave bookie.
There’s a link to the indictment at the above.
Betting by sports players on their own games? Shocked I tell you...SHOCKED!
When they start arresting owners for pre-arranging results we will be getting somewhere…
Wait... sports is rigged? I’m so confused. Is it possible that Jake Paul didn’t really beat Mike Tyson?
So it's interesting that all the players involved (not "players" players but the stakeholders) did not sufficiently kiss the Trump ring, and there are probably a jillion sports bettors at DOJ and FBI that have been screwed by their (own fault) jank parlays, got a remarkable amount of hotline leads on the skels, and decided to do a little investigatin'...
Every ball game has a degree of luck to it rigging it will make betting easier for a profit.
That sound right huh Moe.
Interesting financial choice. He tried to win $7k. He has made $15M at baseball already. He is scheduled to make $10M each of the next two years. And he risked that for $7,000?
Dominicans can leave the Island, but can’t leave the corruption behind them. Sad. The MINIMUM MLB salary is 760k a year which is what Ortiz was making, Clase was more like 5 million last year.
And they said Pete “I Only Bet on My Team to Win” Rose was the problem....
That’s so unexpected! *drink*
