Sports Betting
Well, it appears that something weird is going on with the $700 million man.
Shohei Ohtani made a little news this off-season when he signed a contract with the Dodgers.
It was a love fest that continued through the opening series when Ohtani got a couple of hits to open the season.
And then a huge story.
Ohtani’s translator was fired by the Dodgers and the story was framed that he stole $4 million from his good friend to pay off gambling debts.
But hold on…
…more news followed stating that Ohtani paid off the debt.
‘Cause he loved the guy?
Or because he was making the bets?
This is going to be a huge story.
Will MLB dig deep and possibly discipline the face of baseball?
Can the Dodgers void that contract?
No matter what, it’s a sad story and sort of a reflection of what sports has turned into.
There are bets on every damn thing now.
You can bet on the favorite if they fall behind. You can pull the bet at anytime.
It’s all just a click away…
…and when you have $700 million losing $4 million isn’t such a big deal…
…but it is if it was Ohtani making those bets.
Shake my head.
You don’t see Aaron Judge doing those things.
