This pisses me off so much. Sorry not sorry, legalized gambling has ruined the integrity of sports. Why does a pitcher making $6 million a year need kickbacks from prop bets?!
Will they be convicted? DraftKings has the odds.

If you've never read "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair, you should probably go do that soon. And bring it up to everyone you know and make sure they read it. Because Republicans are bringing back that world. And it's beyond gross & disgusting, it's dangerous and people will die.
