Good that the league cracked down on this when they did. Now, if only they could deal with the other issues threatening the integrity of the game... ***cough, cough, REFS, cough, cough***

I'm sure the NFL doesn't want players gambling on NFL games b/c that could open the Pandora's Box that could lead to the NFL's version of the Black Sox scandal... and I'm sure no one in their right mind wants that

Should crack down on refs gambling.

The N.F.L should change its name to the National Football Entertainment League. It would clear a lot of confusion.

He’s in trouble because he placed the bets himself instead of getting a family member to do it for him.

Bet he won't do that again.
