Obtaining ineligible WRs may be our best path forward in the red zone.

If you aren't already working at a comedy club, you need to be.

Personally, I'd have Pete in the HOF, so I don't have a problem with this guy betting on his own team.   It was a dumb move by him, but it's a forgivable learning experience IMO.

I mean, if you look at corporations that give performance based bonuses or profit sharing, how is betting on your own team any different?  You will be motivated to work above and beyond to reap additional compensation.  Same person in different clothes, IMO.  I think it should be legal.

What do you do when the corporation sees bigger value in your sales figures tanking this quarter, and ask you to underperform or fudge the books just so they make out like bandits, in exchange for this um, fancy new suitcase? No idea what's in it, might be nothing, might be a bunch of crisp new hundos all wrapped into neat stacks. 

Think of it this way. First round pick, probably worth 8 figures. Does he NEED to slap down a few G's on his buds getting a dub while he's sittin at home? He just as easily could have thrown down on the Bama game or the ponies, or found someone playing three card monty if he just had to get his fix.
