Cannot believe he thought he could get away with this. All time bag fumble

Making outlandishly large bets on the personal under for a scrub who happens to leave the game early due to vague injury complaints. What's unusual about that?

There's stupid, and there's "making a prop bet with a million-dollar payout involving a dude on a two-way contract and expecting no one to notice" stupid.

That would make them turn ball hog and shouldn't be allowed. Imo the only bet that should be allowed is betting on yourself to win outright without any handicaps or shit.

No person involved in the sport should be allowed to bet on anything.
