piranesi Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 17 hours ago, odessasteps said: There are plenty of stories nowadays about fishy games in the lower levels of sports around the world, just not the major leagues. If Asian betting syndicates can make their money fixing third tier Canadian or Malaysian soccer, which goes almost everyone’s radar but Declan Hill and company, why try and fix the Premier League or nfl? Grigor Sargysan sees some dark potential in you, steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that my Burning River Buckets lost last night in the ABA playoffs, I would be happy to announce him in our starting lineup next year. Plus, I think merch sales would go up a little bit.

Gonzo Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I know Bobby Bonilla Day isn't until 1 July, but the Mets aren't the only ones still paying Bonilla. He has a second deferred contract with the Orioles that's paying him $500,000 every year until 2029. He's had this deal since 2004. So he hasn't just been getting $1 million every 1 July. . .he's been getting $1.5 million. 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Quote The former interpreter for Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani stole more than $16 million over two years from Ohtani to pay off gambling debts to an illegal sportsbook, according to an affidavit filed by federal authorities Thursday. Federal authorities filed a complaint accusing Ippei Mizuhara, 39, of bank fraud. Bank fraud can carry a maximum fine of up to $1 million and/or up to 30 years in prison, according to federal sentencing guidelines. Ohtani, referred to in the complaint only as a "professional baseball player," told authorities that he did not authorize the transfers. Text messages showed that Mizuhara began gambling in September 2021 and began losing "substantial sums of money" later that year. Bank records also show that the phone number and email address on the account were changed to those associated with Mizuhara. Investigators also relied on recorded phone calls from the bank in which Mizuhara falsely identified himself as Ohtani to "trick and deceive" bank employees into authorizing the transfers. The complaint outlined one specific transfer on June 20, 2023, of $500,000 to an associate of a bookmaker. While the bookmaker is not named in the complaint, his role and detail match that of Mathew Bowyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Yuniesky Betancourt (formerly of the Mariners, Royals, Brewers, Royals, and Brewers) was arrested for insurance fraud for staging a car crash for a payout. He's being represented by a public defender, if "trying to scam an insurance company" wasn't enough of a sign that he's briz-oke and has no money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted Tuesday at 01:02 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:02 AM My boss and I were talking about the A's playing in San Jose. I said they might get better attendance in a minor league park than In the Coliseum. And it would look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyWhioux Posted Tuesday at 04:07 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:07 PM Fisher already has a team in San Jose that that got it's new stadium and still doesn't draw fans because he's still the same cheap-ass that blows up teams as soon as they develop. The malaise stems from ownership, not the city, stadium, or fanbase. Same as every other team in this position in every other US sport 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way he pulled himself up by the bootstraps is so inspiring. It's so horrible the way the greedy cities, players, and other team personnel abuse him. He oughta have a statue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
