I still can't figure out the embed, but there is the link.  Sounds like poker, and not betting on games.  But debt to the mafia blurs that line quickly.

Pretty sure neither political team...hollywood...probably athletes..... music stars... want that dirty laundry aired.

Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

You, my friend are really bold. Wait for the excuses why that’s not relevant or that this is not the time

I doubt the Epstein files ever get released, if they still exist.

Gambling has ruined nearly everything with sports. I will never be convinced it all hasn’t been coerced, even if it’s just a little bit.

Living in Portland and knowing billups history everyone saw this coming.

He's not a good person

Hope he gets everything coming to him

FWIW the gap between NBA and NFL has only widened after today

It'll never be proven but Cuban selling makes sense now, he knew this was coming

EDIT- https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cz9j4dg2j0qt?page=2

Holy hell NBA players fixing games with organized crime families The NBA is Dunnnnnn! I think this has been going on for years

Wife knows someone that was on Epstein island. She didn’t have sex but it was highly encouraged. Did see a certain individual from across the pond. It’s not just our political teams.

Wasn't that long ago they buried the Refs gambling issue.  NBA is so unwatchable, they have to have some way to draw interest.
