Verified that a friend told Query that it was 99% a defensive player with an opportunity out in front of him? Like the Luck, Uber driver story? That wasn't a good lead in. Hard sell, could be true, but now we know that the media ran with a story that doesn't have any base to it yet. At least ol boy gave us how much Pittman " allegedly" bet and included a game as well. I find that easier to believe than someone's friend told them something. The Colts haven't told anyone about who it is, the NFL hasn't either. All speculation at this point, and for Destin to feel the need to make Rodger's name public without proof, is irresponsible. Was it irresponsible for the Boston guy to put out Pittman's name? Yes, it was, but like I said at least he had some info(whether true or not). Where are all the other local guys? Why is it only Destin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Waylon Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 The sports books are the ones turning these guys in. They’re not gonna sit back and let these guys torpedo that business. I’d really like to know the facts of the situation before I pass any real judgement, but for #s sake, after the league put Calvin Ridley on a platter and then made an example of him and clearly illustrated they were in fact going to exercise a zero tolerance policy it’s kinda hard to have any sympathy for anyone who has placed a bet and then got caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

richard pallo Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 So much for our vetting process when it comes to drafting players. This player obviously has a gambling problem and our scouts were not able to uncover it. I am very skeptical that this just started up when he became an NFL player. Certainly possible but at the level being reported and him knowing the consequences seems like he has a problem that he couldn’t control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csmopar Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Here’s the other thing, Indiana has a fair tough racketeering law that includes betting as an athlete on games you play in. Even covers college kids and the like. Unless they’ve changed it. Been over a decade since I last heard of it being used to actually prosecute anyone but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t been im not sure if any of the federal laws will apply since he bet on his own team. This could be interesting going forward. Jail time may be in the picture too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he made enough to cover his fines It seems like I saw someone say that he had placed bets on Colts games, if he happened to bet against us I wouldn’t be surprised to see a lifetime ban. The first time they catch a player doing that, that’s gonna be the punishment. Hopefully we don’t get the be the team to bear that black mark, but if we are I guess that train has already left the station so here we go. Just an unnecessary, unforced error.

AKB Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 its crazy how quick the league and roster can change. not long ago my favorite players were Leonard, Hines, Moore, and Rodgers Sr. Lenoard might never be the same, Kenny almost wasn't a Colt anymore, Hines is a Bill, and Rodgers is about to be removed from the NFL most likely.

masterlock Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I'm also thinking that maybe betting on your own team should be considered some type of criminal offense, especially if you are playing in a game. It is akin to insider trading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, The fact that he was placing bets after the entire NFL world saw what happened to Ridley is mind-boggling. Just goes to show we can feel how we want about players but you never really know who they are. Legit is one of my favorite colts, probably GG on that.
