I bet that neither of them face consequences anywhere near as severe as Sorsby.

Nor should they. Nothing will happen.

The WNBA is the perfect example of why women should never run anything. The incompetence and poor decision making is truly amazing.

One rule for thee, a whole different rule for me., said the QB who won't be playing anywhere this year, much less in Lubbock.

I was responding to a post that referenced Sorsby. I never said that they were the same thing.

Its not.. This was a friendly wager, not sports betting.

Same way you can play poker with your friends for cash as long as theres no house rake.

I just want to make sure what we’re complaining about here…

A friendly wager on an all star game, right?

PGA pros have friendly wagers during actual tournaments sometimes but I’m pretty sure no one thinks they should be suspended.

Eta: maybe they don’t, but Colt Knost definitely referenced something like that in a tournament.

No they were at allstar game practice. The wager was about a game their teams played last night. The complaining is because it involves Angel Reese.

Ah. Ok. That makes more sense, but I still a friendly wager is way different than betting on the sport.

That was a dumb idea and a bad look but I don’t think this was serious gambling. It was an ill advised joke.
More like OBJJr handing out cash on the field after the champs game. Just acting the fool.

honestly the best thing to come out of this is Clay Travis losing his mind on X like a $400 bet between friends is the same thing as Pete Rose betting 100s of thousands with an illegal bookie.

I bet if it were 2 no-name players who did this, they’d be getting at least suspended for a few games. But the WNBA can’t afford to suspend their big name players because then even fewer people would watch.

Nobody cares because it’s the WNBA, but at the end of the day it’s really because gambling is what ESPN, Fox or anyone else that matters is all about. It’s really hard to have a hard take on gambling and professional athletes when the same segment is sponsored by a gambling company. It is what it is, but sooner than later this new age of sports gambling will take of its self.
