I'm kinda glad this happened. I didn't want to risk any chance we'd trade for someone with mental issues, because what if he returned and decided he should have stayed away? We'd be losing draft picks for nothing. Besides, this just shows what a moron this guy is. The NFL warns players over and over not to bet on sports, especially football. It's like the "forbidden fruit." They view this misdeed as "the ultimate sin," yet this millionaire player does it anyway and for what? A measly $1500? Really? This guy is about as stupid as they come. Hasn't he ever heard of Pete Rose? Athletes can't bet on sports, period! It doesn't matter if you agree with the rule or not. It's still a rule and he knew it, yet he did it anyway. I don't feel sorry for him at all. I feel sorry for the Falcons. They were counting on an influx of draft picks when they traded him and now that is gone. They have to totally change up their offseason plans.
