THE STUPID ENTITLED GAMBLING ATHLETE: At the core of all illegal sports gambling.
Ed Berliner’s ”The Fastest Show in Sports” by Ed Berliner/Fuzzy Dogs Productions
Episode notes
In New Jersey, another illegal sports gambling ring is busted, the Mafia is again doing all the dirty work, and there are unnamed college athletes also being investigated. NONE of this is shocking. The reason why we see so many athletes and coaches involved is simple. They are entitled, arrogant, often exceptionally stupid people in the ways of simple society, and therefore make the easiest fools to recruit. It's evident. All you have to do is look at those caught, what they did, their backgrounds and how the greed just plays them for suckers. Sports gambling is legal, but it's also an addiction, and the leagues want to keep the gamblers as addicted as they can for as long as they can.
