No they don't. The league is too retarded and couldn't even explain it. The league is so retarded they only caught about 5 guys of the hundreds that do it. And only because a couple lame ass states with some massively faggy politicians paid some bitchy lawyers to write a bunch of letters on a page with spaces between some of them. Fuck you corporate bootlicker.
Its like u have all this fake rage.

Really frustrating that he was gambling on golf. And he asked if it was okay first.

Atleast they just fine guys for smoking weed now. One step at a time.

Wait so Williams was at a hotel and not a team facility and even asked if it was OK first and was told it was? If you guys don't think there's a problem with the way the league explained the rules to the players and coaches I don't know what you are thinking.

A rule is a rule. If it's broken, there are consequences. I'm sure they can find another career where, if they really want to gamble on sports, it will allow them to do that.

Gamblers general lose more than they win, and some lose a lot. Now image a player losing a bundle gambling than being offer a bribe to do something like say fumbling the ball away. Maybe that's why the NFL would prefer players not to gamble.

I know you are just spitballing here, but still seems like to much micromanaging here.
Someone needing money & gets told I will give you this endorsement if you fumble or whatever. Even if they dont gamble.

BTW he didnt get in trouble for gambling but for doing it on team property. Or am I incorrect on that?

The NFL has always taking the strongest stance on players gambling. When Romo was playing he was told if he held/hosted a poker tournament in a casino he, (and any player playing), would be suspended. That's without any sports betting or team facilities being involved. Apparently the NFL has made the rules clear to teams and teams have made the rules clear to players in team meetings. I don't like the rules but the NFL is entitled to set them and enforce them. It's easy enough to have a family member act on your behalf. "Say John, I think 1500 people would like the Giants plus 3 and half today. 2000 fans would like the Dolphins straight up". I'd rather players stayed clearly within the rules. Failing that at least be a bit smart.

I might be cynical but it looks to me like the NFL has bent over backwards to avoid catching big name players whilst they're using the expendable players to send a message.

At least it's not snooker where top players can bet on themselves to lose.

You never respond with anything football related. It's always about me. You are lame and a loser. That's your dance.


We were trying to have an adult conversation, then you barge in and drop gems such as "faggy politicians" and basically acted like the mouth breather that we all know you to be. Then you can't understand why you get push back for posting like an asshole?
