Gary Bettman Exposed By Insiders For Take On Gambling
In recent days Gary Bettman was exposed by insiders for his ridiculous takes on gambling.
Insider Exposes Bettman For Betting Takes
A new report from Darren Rovell who specializes in the business of sport called out Gary Bettman. He talked about how Bettman was once one of the leaders against gambling but has now taken a massive flip.
The NHL has been ramping up its betting partnerships while laying the hammer down on players for using the services that the league sponsors.
NHL Exposes Hypocritical Position On Gambling
The partnership with MGM Grand and FanDuel are not the only companies in recent years to have the NHL partner with them. The NHL recently announced a partnership with ESPN and theScore for betting options.
The hypocritical position of heavily partnering with these kinds of companies and then suspending players for betting needs to be addressed by the NHL. Betting on NHL games of course cannot happen.
However, shoving betting sites in viewers' faces and then punishing players for using the sites that all of their friends use seems a bit hypocritical.
