Came here to post that.

Here we go. MLB is about to go kaboom. Not just betting on games but actively involved in racketeering and money laundering. These won't be the only guys.

No doubt in my mind that games are being rigged across sports.

All of sports are having this come up. With DraftKings being in bed with ESPN and being actively promoted with sports, the hypocrisy is staggering.

I'm sure was just their interpreters acting on their own impulse and not the players themselves…

Clase got paid less than half a million dollars for his role, yet stood to possibly make at least a hundred million in his career potentially if not more. What a moron, and what a waste.

Something tells me it was not the money he got paid. It was the threat of getting dismembered. I'll bet he was deep in the hole to a fat guy with a pipe and blowtorch.

If he was getting extorted, then why was he paid?

To work out of his hole? To keep him going? To give him incentive to not go to the FBI?

I don't know. I don't gamble and I've never found myself in trouble with a book. But I can imagine lots of reasons.

What? Someone cheated?

We haven't heard anything recently about Othani's interpreter, have we?

Now that all the bad guys have been caught, any remaining restrictions on advertising, promotions, and sponsorships can be lifted with a clear conscience.

I mean let's face it, this isn't new,, it's just news because they got caught. Imagine how many guys in the pre-Internet/digital error were taking bribes in cash from some guy who knew a guy.

"I just don't understand how these players can get caught up in all of this gambling. Tough night for these guys as they failed to cover the spread, and as +230 odds going in as an underdog… Well that will be all from the fanduel post game show… stay tuned for our next program sponsored by BET MGM and Draftkings. After this show concludes, be sure to use our promo code BET25 for your next parlay." - sports today

When the best player in the league was betting on baseball and nothing happened is all you need to know.

Oh, Cleveland's closer was doing something?

This is going to be just like the sign stealing saga.

Cancel subscription, delete app. That's the only proper action at this point regarding Kennesaw Mountain Manfred's baseball league.
