Anybody catch him talking about there being an over/under prop bet on the number of times they mentioned defaltegate? Then proceeded to say it 4 times in a row. Then said you guys with the over,congrats. Local radio guys were talking about it.

Just thought it was interesting, since the sports book that offered it paid. He.s for years been suspected of betting on games

Never heard that before. But if it's bets on the game who cares, he can't affect anything. If it's over under on mentions, good for him, nice to see the bookies get screwed for once.

It's funny, ESPN started to embrace sports gambling once it got into bed with DraftKings.

SVP does the 'Bad Beats' segment on Sportscenter and they talk about the lines and had a COVER alert box pop it.

That was early in the season though and it seems that they scaled it back after the DFS controversy broke.

I love the way Michaels always sneaks in his comments about the line and the over.
