The NBA Just Banned a Player for Life. It Had No Choice.
Quick Glance: Lifetime Ban as Warning to NBA Gamblers: Coach
  • Commissioner Adam Silver's firm stance on Raptors bench player Jontay Porter serves as a cautionary tale for potential NBA gamblers.

  • The NBA's decision to ban Jontay Porter due to his involvement in gambling did not come as a surprise to anyone in the league.

  • NBA bit players pose a gambling risk and were seen as an ideal example in this cautionary tale, as mentioned by an NBA coach.

  • Porter's limited significance as a player will lead to the story fading quickly, even though it may be referenced in relation to his brother Michael Porter Jr. and the Nuggets during the playoffs.

Quick Glance: Bringing Oakland Athletics to Sacramento is Wrong | Opinion
  • Sports radio personality David Weiglein, known as 'Carmichael Dave', opposes the temporary relocation of the Oakland Athletics to Sacramento by Kings owner Vivek Ranadive.

  • Weiglein argues that bringing the Oakland Athletics to Sacramento is wrong due to owner John Fisher being considered one of the worst in sports and advocates for the A's to remain in Oakland.

  • He cautions that Sacramento would receive a bad reputation as game attendance might dwindle after the initial novelty wears off, leaving loyal fans feeling duped.

  • Weiglein draws a parallel to the heroic story of saving the Sacramento Kings from moving to Seattle, emphasizing his refusal to engage with an owner like Fisher.
