If this has already been mentioned my bad.

Jontay Porter has been given a lifetime ban from the NBA.

The league investigated and found out that Porter, a Toronto Raptor, purposely limited his participation on March 20 vs. the Kings because he made bets on his own performance.

How dumb was that?

I couldn't stop laughing as I was reading the article I ran across.

That's one the dumbest, if not the dumbest thing, I've heard an NBA player do.

Almost as dumb as some college football players in the late 90's who stole someone's checkbook and wrote checks to themselves.

Greedy, greedy, greedy. Looked up Bynum stats and he made more than 17m. Don't know the MLB player. Both are idiots.

He should have gone to jail for stealing money from the Sixers.

What is the correlation to TV ratings?

My guess is minimal.

Between the steroid scandal, lockouts/strikes and the pace of play I think most people have genuinely lost interest in baseball.
