Okay
I already did all those things
Cool
Great
getting fishing clash right now
I take it DraftKings didn't feel like sponsoring this video
Perfection. Well played.
Fanduel did on my end. I’m gonna assume its automated.
Bet MGM had an add right before it for me
PREACH
😂😂
The league acting all surprised when there is an uptick in gambling scandals after running ads for it 24/7
I feel like all of the big leagues have had this issue, it's not like it's just the mlb
@@Agentrock47 ESPN even has their own sports gambling program. It's becoming a plague.
online sports gambling being legalized in a bunch of different states/countries hurt sports a lot
@channingtaintum No lie one of the Mexican League Baseball got renamed to "Caliente Durango". BTW Caliente is the biggest sports gambling site in Mexico.
sports betting has been around in the rest of the world for decades, we've had these adverts and sponsorships for decades, and there's never been scandals half as bad as in the US. Why that is, I couldn't tell you, but gambling itself isn't the problem.
This suspension is brought to you by Draft Kings. If you’re looking to risk your career, do it with Draft Kings.
They did it so sly too. Built up the “daily fantasy” empire and then just used the tons of money to buy off politicians, judges, and executives. Before you know it, it’s legal in many states.
💀💀💀
lol💀
Could you imagine being a college player with a lot of potential only to find out someone on your team, bricked your games? I'd be so pissed.
Yeah bro I’m a big sports bettor from az but dirty games is almost impossible to tell. At the end of the day I don’t want sports betting gone, I want both teams to try their best
my choice after that will be based on the data out there not some guy in my pocket or family
It seems most fixers don't tell people to lose espically in college ust not cover a spread usally a big fav just dont cover you can win get paid every ones happy
And in tennis I've heard stories of like drop this game in this set your own serve just this game get paid and you can still tryn win or win. Of course some people totally throw it but from all I've ever researched alot easier to convince some 1 to get on board if they still look good in the end
Soccer is the worst I belive they say take over 2.5 amd get both goalies to allow a goal and then game on type thing
They literally do gambling ads right after the game 💀💀
I've seen them before and during
In the nesn broadcast they remin the spread of the game. During the game.
Yeah we fans already think a game is rigged even if it isn't. Adding gambling to the equation just increases the distrust 100 times. And distrust can directly lower viewership numbers. I personally stopped watching boxing and UFC for a long time after I got fed up with multiple shady decisions by the judges.
Mate nhl as gambling ads on the damn boards
Are you stupid or dumb, those ads are for fans and people that want to bet, not for the players who play these sports.
Let’s face it, baseball doesn’t have a gambling problem- SPORTS has a gambling problem.
EDIT: Yes ik, the title was changed lol. Now I look like a goof but oh well, POINT STILL STANDS
I’ll take it further. Competition in general has a gambling problem. Hell, by the end of the decade, I’m not going to be surprised if something like the National Spelling Bee has a gambling/fixing controversy.
@@Reiderreiter As a 6th grade spelling bee champion, this hurts my heart lol. In all seriousness, I agree
Yea but you have to be greedy as hell to be making the money this guy is making and still be gambling. Excessive gambling leads to mental issues. This is why someone can be this rich and still feel the need to gamble for more earnings. You can kind of see why Jontay Porter gambled. He wasn’t making that much money but this guy is one of the highest paid players in sports. There is no need for this guy to be gambling. I feel like MLB is covering how deep this guy’s gambling issue is. Once again this is not jontay Porter who is a nobody they can make an example out of. This a superstar with not just the whole of Japan behind him but pretty much east Asia. MLB doesn’t to lose that and likely hiding how deep his gambling problem is.
@@mikeyjames Nice fanfiction. You would probably get more views posting it on AO3, though.
Wanna bet on my Wii Wii ???
As a Taiwanese, I can provide some additional information about the Taiwan baseball gambling scandal:
1. These “game fixing” operation were usually run by large scale criminal organizations, these organizations were so powerful that they could control local elections at that time.
2. These criminals would not only pay those players that comply with them, but also threaten those who don’t. It got so bad that after a game, the gangsters kidnapped the players, slapped them on the face, and threatened them at gun point.
3. The whole situation got completely out of hand when a investigation found out that one of the prosecutor who were leading the investigation was actually corrupted and involved in illegal gambling himself.
4. Those players who refuse to cheat under such a horrendous situation has earned our love and respect so much that almost the entires baseball community in Taiwan, regardless which team you support, would come together at their retirement ceremony and celebrate with them.
So awful that the whole American steroid situation looks pale in comparison.
Damn.
sports leagues: why do we have so many gambling problems😭 also their ads:FAN DUEL
A buddy of mine who was a die hard home team fan his entire life, I never thought I'd see the day, but with all the gambling apps taking over the bar scene, his son and his friends all getting everyone to join the apps, and then, one night he actually made a bet against our home team. I couldn't believe it. I told him I couldn't believe it, and asked him why. He said "every time I bet on the * they lose, so f8k it." And so, there; gambling is ruining people's perspective of the game and their priorities, young and old.
Honestly, daily gambling completely destroys your ability to just enjoy your favourite sport. And that’s especially true when you’re on a losing streak and trying to win your money back.
Good, I’m glad your friend realized that loyalty to a team is stupid.
Gambling and politics are ruining sports.
I used to place a small bet here and there back in the day (football only). I had a rule that I never bet on the team I was a fan of.
@@alessandrorossi1294 what Sport are you a Fan of? Cause the way you're saying this screams you have no passion for it and don't know what it's like being an actual Fan
We either need to change the rules about gambling, or start holding everyone involved accountable. This double standard of enforcement of the rules is unacceptable.
Sometimes it isn’t so black and white though. I think we either keep sports gambling and the integrity of the competition takes a major hit or get rid of it. We have to ask ourselves what’s more important, the sport and its integrity or the right to gamble.
@@legitgingerxzthat's easy it's way more important to keep the sports integrity, there's no reason why gambling should be not only allowed by the leagues but outright advertised and encouraged. All this does is encourage stuff like situations like this to happen. The only way I can see gambling still being allowed while holding some form of integrity is the banning of its advertising by sports leagues and their affiliated companies such as ESPN and the like
The ohtani scandal was with an illegal book, those regulations would lead to just an increase in illegal books which may already be a big thing.
but also this is california. If he did it in any other state it would be ok
you think its bad now? just wait till digital id is active . You aint seen nothing yet !
I can't imagine having a $500k a year job, spending every day with your best friend who is one the richest athletes alive and then deciding to throw your entire life away over some shitty bets. What a loser.
That's what addiction does to you, mate. It's becoming a massive epidemic.
Friend's stepdad threw their house away to feed the machine.
Dad's friend was so rich but got so broke he ended up as a door to door women's pads salesman at one point.
You have to be super naive or super dumb to believe that he wasn’t the middle man for ohtanis bets. 100% ohtani was the one the making bets that other dude just handled the money and did it on paper so it don’t trace back to him. They were together everyday so finding physical evidence will be hard as they never left a palate chase with ohtanis name on it. If anything that guy is one of the best friends you can have. He took a risked a federal charge so ohtani could have his name cleared. Respect that man!!!!
@@angelnieto316 1+ Amen.
Fanbois seem to believe everything their "heroes" say. Everything! Even if it is big fat lies thrown at them with 100 mph velo. I thought I saw it all with the Lance Armstrong saga and their ever believing worshippers. No, Ohtani fanbois are the newest low.
If MLB was at least a bit trustworthy, its not any more. Ohtani should have been banned for life, instantly...
We had the strike of rich vs rich (thats 1994, the last time I spent a dollar on them), then the roids, the everlasting in game cheating like doctored bats and balls, politics getting into baseball, and now the full blown gambling and game fixing.
Its FUBAR, a grotesque circus, rotten to the core.
@@angelnieto316 wow this guy cracked the case everyone, he knows more than the FBI!
@@LostRams just cuz the fbi can’t prove he did it don’t mean he wasn’t doing it. Japanese people are smarter than the average American they know how to do things and get away with it or put the blame on someone else
Ohtani didn't "change his original story" because all of it was rooted in lies. That was Ippei's original story TO Ohtani's people. Shohei's original story is that he had money stolen from him and that he was innocent.
Think ohtani did know what the interpreter was going say? They found out that story meant ohtani could get in trouble so they changed it.
Still it's pretty messed up if that dude gets 30 years when it's the illegal bookie who should be forced to return the money or go to jail. Receiving stolen property is a crime, and people are charged with it even when they weren't aware the stuff was stolen. This guy knew it was, was told it was, and had the prescience to play dumb over the phone and claim he believed that it was a cover-up, but if he really thought the player would pay it then he would have said something to him when Ip tried to blow him off, and he started stalking his friend. Everyone knows these people get their money back by violence so he was screwed no matter what, cause this guy could have broke his friends hands and ruined both their careers and made his money back knowing the boy was injured ahead of time. Obviously he should have gone to the police instead of stealing the money, or at least asked his friend for help, but he probably didn't want to get him involved and screw things up for him and it's scary to go to the police knowing you'll probably go to jail anyway, they might not have even arrested the bookie, and if the bookie or his associates found out then you just have all your old problems but now a criminal has a strong motive to kill you and the police probably aren't going to protect you or won't be able to. If they even help in the first place, when I was tackled to the ground and mugged for my phone I waved down patrolling officers and told them what happened, but I had hit my head and was panicked and wasn't thinking clearly so instead of arresting the guy, or helping me, or asking more questions, they told me I would have to go to the precinct and speak with detectives, then they drove away and the guy who mugged me who was literally still right there tackled me to the concrete again and stole my keys as well. So asking for help could just backfire completely if you're unlucky. But also the bank should have never allowed such a ridiculous transfer over the phone to begin with. Anyone could have done that if they had the information, what kind of moron allows such a massive transfer to a random bank account with no history connected with the current account and doesn't flag it, call the cops, IRS, or at least require it to be done in person.
@@Pepesmallboth the bookie and Ippei could face 30 years if it is found out that they both know the money wasn’t approved by Ohtani.
I’ve been saying it for years. I can’t believe betting got so popular in sports. We probably aren’t going to come back from it.
I don't see whats so unbelievable about it. I think it was completely predictable
People already care more about bets than their city's team. They did so well for so long but money talks.
It's always been popular, it's just easier to coordinate/participate online, especially in the past decade. The first huge scandal 105 years ago hinged on organized crime and poor player pay, evolving through "fantasy" evaluations and larger gambling operations into an industry that has few legal barriers.
how comes we don't have these issues in the rest of the world? The Premiership generates more revenue than any US sport and is watched by literally a billion people around the world, and we don't have these issues.
@@bipolarminddroppingsassuming your talking about the premier league your wrong. Tonali and toney prove that
1:19 Bros not even trying to hide it 💀💀💀😂😂
Indeed
Bro fr said “ ruh roh, I slipped (insert cartoon slipping sounds)”
🤣🤣🤣
The look back at the referee did me in.
The problem is ESPN makes these players out to be criminals and immediately turns around and says "this segment was brought to you by draft kings" and plays gambling commercials
Sports media should be held to the same standards as the players and not be allowed to associate with gambling at all
Viewer from Taiwan here. I knew you would mention game-fixing scandal almost two decades ago when saw the title.
It's long gone since nowadays law enforcements and teams take a lot of measures to protect players from bidders (a lot of players involved were forced to do so while had a gun pointed at their head instead of being bribed.) Moreover, the recent 2 chairmen of Taiwan professional league are big names in politics so that gangsters won't dare to try contacting players.
Also Taiwanese professional players are much well paid than before such that it isn't worthy at all to do game-fixing as now all professional teams are operated by huge Taiwanese enterprises (except one, Rakuten, which is also a big company in Japan that also runs an NPB team) for CSR and advertising purposes. In fact, in the world of baseball, only Major league, NPB and KBO players are being paid more than what players in Taiwan professional league got.
One more thing: the drone shot of kind-of-abandoned stadium isn't related to game-fixing. It's actually an on-going event: the stadium was retrofitted on 2022, reopened and the league played three professional games there, but hit multiple operational issues and ex-major leaguer Che-Hsuan Lin got hurt while doing a diving catch, and then professional league relocated rest of games scheduled there and withdrew from the stadium. It later becomes a major debating topic during upcoming domestic election, opposing parties use it for political manipulation and won the mayor election later that year. However, the newly-elected mayor got into a law suit for some corruptions during her term in legislative yuan (congress of Taiwan) shortly after she's incumbent, and the finalization of stadium refurbishment had little to no progress since then.
ME clicking the video: "Okay maybe it does cause a gambling problem."
Also the AD:draft kings
I got 2 ad breaks, 2 of those commercials were to donate money to Isreal, a Joe Biden ad and temu.
@@JustaPersonTryinToHuman365LMFAOOOO this just killed me 🤣
Temu and Biden specifically
I think there is a big problem with sports betting in all major sports worldwide. Over here in the UK there are so many cases of top level football/soccer players betting on their own games or other games. I think it's starting to get out of hand now.
By "so many cases" you mean basically none. Ivan Toney and Trippier being the only two "top level" players to have been caught, and no one on the level of Otani has ever been even suspected of such things.

I just feel bad for Ohtani. The trust issues he'll have forever after being betrayed so harshly by his closest friend will never go away.
I just hope he can move on from this and continue playing
He was in on it. Wake up.
@@Quaquadaqu How about you shut up?
@@Quaquadaqu In on what? Controlling FBI and IRS to have his back?
you're an (@%*)(@#%)( aren't ya bro
I say it every time I'm watching sports now a days, gambling has ruined the sportsmanship part of sports. You have not just the fans who get angry when their bet doesn't hit, which happens more often than not because of house odds, people who gamble are more likely to be upset with the game, but among the players too who are now able to get a bonus equal to 3-6 months to even a few years of a contract just by doing what someone asked them to for one night.
It's honestly too tempting not to. Imagine you know you are on the way out. Injuries or just not performing as expected. You know you are getting dropped so why not make a bonus this season.
That doesn't even account for young sports stars that have no idea about worthwhile risks.
Draft Kings sponsoring every podcast and sports channel on social media too.
That's a tall drink right there boy. Think like 1 in every 10,000 games may be rigged across all sports played. Definitely not as often as you think.
@@TheDewaltBoy Wake tf up. It's "Entertainment" now. Which means they can legally rig it. And they do.
@hortons1967 lol tell a competitive athlete that same line of bullshit.
People betting on sports leads to more upset fans because you always lose long term when sports betting since there are house odds, basically every game there's always a net loss by the fans. There's going to be more fans who are upset and miserable instead of just enjoying the game for what it is.
I used to be a pro poker player on the internet. I stopped because I saw all the people who got addicted and would lose all of their money...
Sports betting is the only form of gambling besides poker that you can win long term, most people just don't use multiple books, lines shop, hunt for +EV, etc.
@@johnwickspencil908however the vast majority do not
@@Baseball2287 True because they don’t do those things. I’m just saying sports betting is very beatable
That's assuming every fan is betting or cares. Which we don't. It's a very small portion of fans who make any kind of bets compared to those who don't. I just don't pay attention to odds or any of that cause it doesn't matter to me. And guess what? Sports are still very enjoyable to watch. 😂
Note that sport betting is illegal in California. Ippei had a betting account with an illegal bookmaker, he racked up debt because he can “borrow” money to bet with in that account. Its also hard to trace because the accounts are linked by a number/id, not names. They only figured it out because of the Ohtani bank transactions.
I would say these legit betting companies make it harder to do those rigged games/performances since they track you. So I would say its mostly a problem caused by illegal gambling.
edit: nvm i just said the same thing he said towards the end.
MLB absolutely has a "face of baseball/golden child" curse. Whoever is dubbed/marketed as the face of baseball will have some kind of scandal that will blot or even ruin their careers. A-rod, Tatis Jr, Pete Rose and now Ohtani
It doesn't help when a lot of TH-camrs are sponsored by betting firms. It's glamourised by so many people when in fact betting is evil
Hell, he's aponsored by draft kings and fanduel.
Evil? 😂 Jesus… it’s bad sure, Evil is a bit of an overstatement
If you’re dumb enough to believe what is said in an ad you’re a fool and can’t be helped.
I'm an atheist. I don't agree with gambling in baseball and football. I think gambling should only be used in sports like horseracing because why else do you go to the track? I don't think it's evil.
I just think it's hurting the game making fans want their team or certain players on their team to have a bad game to earn money, but that's my opinion that I refuse to enforce on anybody else.
If you want to bet, I won't stop you. I won't agree, but oh well. You're just hurting yourself and possibly your family when you lose.
I mean, the number of gambling streamers on kick or whatever whose primary audience is literally children is also something else.
Something really shady about sports leagues partnering with these betting sites. The house ALWAYS wins. Don’t fall for it. Only way to truly win is not to play.
But there's an argument that if leagues are partners with those bettings apps, they can monitor which of their players are actually betting.
@@imhassane And it will be more and more as time goes on. It's a poor excuse.
What a sad story at the end of the day, even the best case scenario with the facts we know you have to think it ruins Ippei's life, obviously, but has to make Shohei pretty sad being betrayed like that, and untrusting of the information people are giving him going forward.
If you actually believe Ohtani didn't know what Iepei was doing, I got a bridge for sale. Super cheap!!!
Legalising sports betting in the US was always going to cause this, you're now getting the same experience we've had in the UK for the last 30 years of gambling ads being shoved in your face every 10 seconds, it's going to get worse before it gets better.
10:40 this is just from memory, but I'm pretty sure the clip there was of an indirect free kick, so the goalkeeper deliberately let the ball go in as he knew it wouldn't count as nobody had touched the ball after the kick. So this isn't a case of match fixing and just the goalkeeper being smart and knowing the rules.
Seemed like the situation. Take the free kick back up near half instead of playing out of the back or punting upfield
Yep you can see that is an indirect free kick because the ref has his hand raised while the kick is being taken.
That's exactly the situation. The goalkeeper name is Cássio and he did that against Atlético-MG last year.
Yeeesh that's a pretty sloppy and misleading mistake for this channel to make.
Yeah the ref even laughed at the time. No rules broken
Between sports betting and the video game industry (loot boxes is basically gambling) I predict we’re about to see a huge gambling epidemic in a few years, especially among younger folks.
It’s not a prediction of the future, it’s already here
Yeah it's insane to me IMO. Like I enjoy the NFL and try to study it. Ya know I'm not even good enough to be considered a "armchair coach" but when I hear friends saying "man check out this bet I made" and later they stare at me blankly when I mention like why a specific play didn't work. It's like they all get their betting info from narratives rather than stats or anything objective. It's absurd. Personally I'm not touching sportsbooks with a 10 foot pole, I already have enough addictions lol.
its already here bud
People are spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on free-to-play games because of loot chests, it's insane.
“Oh stars wouldn’t gamble they don’t have as much to gain.” Do not underestimate the power of greed.
.... and addiction (in this case gambling).
And potential coercion
The big books have a direct link to the leagues so it’s easier to spot when it happens.
Ban gambling and the same shit will happen but will be harder to detect
Didnt the Red Sox say that Ippei Mizuhara never worked for them?
Yes they did.
UCR also said Ippei lied about attendance so he’s had this problem for years.
Correct. Then again, this is a narrator who refers to NBA and MLB games as "matches," so take everything with an iceberg-sized grain of salt.
With sports gambling pretty much unrestricted now, it will swallow you whole and you will be out thousands of dollars even with Draftkings. John Oliver did a great segment on about sports gambling. The ones that do well and win are the statistician guys with complex algorithms on EVERY SINGLE PLAYER, weather conditions, and every stat that's put in. Their work is hours and hours of studying before they put in their bet. Even one stat guy was a former World of Poker player. Those are the ones that usually win the money.
How much does the house, Draft Kings, etc., get on these bets?
Sure, those gamblers using stats, knowledge and rare inside informations breath longer, but they still lose in the end. They just "die" a slow death, while the gambling fanbois ruin themselves very fast.
No one is winning (except those knowing a fix now and then). The vig is too high. If you win 520 of 1.000 bets (on even odds), you still lose (because of the vig). And no one on earth beat oddsmakers (who themselves use stats and sophisticated algorithms) by more than 2% over the long run. Its been studied and written about it at length (for one example, English soccer betting statistican).
Its a myth that so-called winning "sharks", "smart money" (bettors), professional gamblers exist.
Whoever proclaims the opposite is a liar or has been maniplated to believe such things like "winning gamblers". They are all losers. In life and gambling.
@@robertewalt7789 2 to 10%... As comparison: The hous advantage in Black Jack is 0.4% (if played correctly), and yet no one beats the house in the long run, not even the card counters.
@@FoxxyBrown1111 yeah there are really two ways to beat the house... First is to win big a bet or 2 and then quit. The other way is to never play. Me personally, I like to place a bet here or there but it's really only for entertainment. If I make enough to get steaks the next weekend, that's cool. If I lost the money that I spent for entertainment, not that big of a deal. When I first got into betting I thought u could be profitable cuz I hit on like 6 really long bets in a row, and I was up like 7k. I ended up losing about 1k of that and realized right there that I just got lucky and walked out with my 6k. Me 6 months later also realized taxes take a chunk of that money, so then it's really not worth it. U can bet over a longer period of time, but it's really like a slow burn imo. U gotta win like 60% of the time to be profitable because of the house edge, and that's just not realistic for most people.
@@nathanjameson1740 What? You still pay taxes if you win? Wow. Thats a receipe for a major disaster nation wide.
Betting here or there 5 dollars, or between friends, for fun, ok. Go to Vegas, get free food, hotel and booze and lose some dollars on roulette, black jack and poker, ok too.
But investing time trying to beat the oddsmakers with stats and incomplete infos is insane. And yet gamblers still do it. Einstein was right about mankind all the way.
But the worst part are the high stakes gambling players. They ruined sports completely. Ohtani is just the last known guy of many. The tip of the iceberg.
8:54 no they are not legal bets when you sign up on any sports betting website u cannot be involved with any major sports team/ or even be family members of that person. It’s in the fine print on draft kings and fan duel in NY
You make some of the best sports videos on the internet. I don’t even like baseball but your videos are always fire. Crazy this content is free.
Barely a month into the 2024 MLB season and I've seen umpires call pitches strikes when you can plainly see that the pitch was a ball. I think the umpires should be investigated for fixing games.
They could just be bad. I'm not sure if you were watching baseball in the 90's, but it was _way_ worse then with no gambling. Not saying they're _not_ fixing games, but it's possible they just suck.
Yep, just look at umpire auditing (@jomboy - Angel's calls.... Tho, he is by far the worst, maybe of all time)
Just get rid of plate umpires for balls and strikes and just use the cameras. Sure, it isn't 100% accurate, but more accurate than a human that can also possibly be influenced by gambling. Just take that variable out of it.
You would have to show that the inaccuracies were consistent and not random (thus intentional and not just poor umpiring)
they've always done that lol some umpires are just ass
Where's that DraftKings sponsorship for this vid tho
I got it from TH-cam soon as I clicked on the video. A Kevin Hart/draft kings ad.
Literally a betmgm ad before video start
I got a FanDuel halfway through 😂
No one on TH-cam does it like you. Baseball Doesn't Exist is the king of transitions/segues.
That highlight at 10:40 is actually a genius move by the goalkeeper and not evidence of match fixing. The ref has his hand up, which means it is an indirect free kick. That means the attacking team can't score directly from the free kick, which they did. That means that the defending team gets a goal kick.
Thank you fishing clash for sponsoring this video considering draft kings might wanna stay out of this one
So basically here is how to make a grilled cheese
Start off by getting your two slices of bread, lots of kinds of bread can be used such as sourdough which is pretty popular although I personally prefer using white bread.
Next you need to get your cheese, lots of cheeses exist that are really good for grilled cheese but I realize that most people don't have many types of cheeses at home just laying there so if all you have are slices of American cheese I would recommend just using two slices per grilled cheese because that's just my personal preference for cheese to bread ratio
Now for the cooking, I know some people use panini presses which work very well but most people don't have a panini press so you can just get an oven top and a stove and set heat at 3 and put butter on the pan and spread it around then when it's melted slap on the grilled cheese and keep it there until it is golden brown which is when you take it off and put another piece of butter on there and put the grilled cheese back on when it melts once that side has turned golden brown as well you must take it off and I personally recommend cutting it diagonally to make triangle and once you do that you can enjoy your delicious grilled cheese
Bruh
I recommend buttering the outside of the bread first. 😂
@@jtothed81 ik that some people do that but i prefer to butter the pan so the bread sucks up the butter and it's flavor is more prominent
What about mayo? Should I put it on the bread or the pan?
cringiest comment ive ever read
If the advertisement was for a sports betting app I would've been cracking up lol
Getting a fan duel ad at the end and draft kings at the beginning was hilarious
The moment that gambling became a legal integral part of sports is when all these gambling scandals truly began.
You mean when they started getting caught….legal gambling is controlled and tracked….if the bets slide 1 way the day before a game your local bookie isn’t going to report it, the betting sites have to.
Hardly. Clearly you've never heard of the Brooklyn 5 (from the '40s), a point shaving scandal from the late 50s, Boston College point shaving scandal in the 70s, Tulane in the 80s....I could go on. My point is this has been happening since the dawn of sport, and it will always happen. Thinking its all of a sudden more prevalent because betting is legal across the country now is a false equivalency.
That's why I don't have any respect for people like jomboy that take sponsorships from companies like draft kings
You're actually stupid if you believe this. If you put your head in the sand I bet you think you'd disappear...
Between politics and gambling, sports are being ruined like everything else. It's sad.
Bettings only legal when the government gets their cut
Just like smoking and drinking. 😉
Been singing your praises to other dads at my daughter’s little league games. Keep up the good work!
Ncca, nfl,nba will not stop players from betting. Me and my teammates use to bet on our games all the time. All the way up til I made the league then I stopped.but I know players and former teammate in the league that still bet. It's part of the game when you see millions betting off you making thousands .
Temple bros, we made it in a Baseball Doesn't Exist video despite not having a baseball team
The shameless promotion of online betting is not going to age well. One day, We'll look back at it like cigarettes. Maybe worse.
19:33 The most suspicious name in all of baseball
Lol
Who?
@@joshsaunders6392Mookie Betts. He's refering to his last name, lol.
haha. For me its Ohtani. The name means gambler. Look up for a Japanese-English translator.
@@FoxxyBrown1111 he has no involvement.
Ohtani sent all his money to his parents when he was playing for the Japanese team, chose to stay in the team dormitory for easier access to the training facilities, spent $200 monthly for 2 years when he was making millions in Japan, deferred 97% of his salary,,, these facts about Ohtani are famously known. Ohtani’s parents saved the money for him and never bought themselves a bigger house. They still live in a house where Ohtani grew up in.
FBI found out he never logged in to the account Ippei was stealing from for 3 years and no involvement with the gambling. That’s so Ohtani to me and not surprising.
There were 19000 bets in 2 years and that’s a serious addiction. Ippei begged the bookie for “the last bump” over and over and over again and was clearly struggling to pay back. It got to a point where the bookie stalked Ohtani to threaten Ippei. If it was Ohtani, he never had to beg for the bumps like Ippei did and was able to pay back right away before it got out of hands.
He is hyper focused on baseball and Ippei took advantage of that. The frauds never let their victims know the reason why they steal from them.
Btw, his last name means “大” Great, “谷” Valley, the name usually come from the locations where the ancestors lived.
The affidavit for the clarification of Ippei’s allegations. www.espn.com/prod/styles/pagetype/otl/2024/240411_ent_mlb/2-24MJ2125-complaint-mizuhara.pdf
I hadnt watched baseball in years until last year and man its sickening how prevalent gambling ads are. At this point, one of the stadiums is gonna be fanduel park
Some stadiums already have sport books inside or right next to them!
Tbf the incident at 10:41 is not match fixing. It’s just good strategy. That was an indirect free kick, so unless it touched another player, it wouldn’t count.
im impressed you didnt mention pete rose
This is what infuriates me the most tbh
And what I meant is that gambling is now institutionalized, rose is still forgotten and ignored by the mlb
He has a death penalty cause MLB bunch bias asshats
he has an entire video on pete rose, check it out
@@whataniceguitar oh for sure….i did not mean the author, more that the league still collectively ignores rose despite embracing the very vice they’ve blackballed him for.
“ the college player took groceries to fix games”
It’s hard living out here when you’re not being paid
yeah i thought it was weird he didnt comment on that. i feel like theres a deeper issue there than just gambling, if college players are risking their careers betting so little i think the solution is to pay them more, not just to get better at tracking them
It’s not THAT HARD to be a college athlete.
@@MadcowMania college coach sockpuppet account
@@MadcowMania Okay keyboard warrior
@@BlisaBLisa Until very recently, collegiate athletes were forbidden to be paid by NCAA rules. Their compensation was in the form of athletic scholarships taking care of tuition, housing, and food.
Great work as usual! Just a quick suggestion, the video you use at 11:20 is actually about the scandal of a terribly built stadium that cost text payers millions of dollars ends up getting shut down after causing a outfielder season ending injuries in only two games.
I wonder why betting has gone up… could it be the fact that all of these leagues have betting app ads on their playing areas?
Nah
Best baseball channel on TH-cam
Except the pay to win fishing sponsor he promotes that’s emulates gambling tendencies 🤪🥴🫢
Baseball doesn’t exist
@@Littlegoblinfatfacelet him make his money too he states it’s a sponsored ad so I don’t see a problem at least it’s not fkn onlyfans or raid shadow legends
1:19 The hands on head disappointment had my dying 😂
You didn’t have to do Boban like that 😂 He got the crowd free chicken!! 11:55
And what looks like a heartwarming gesture to you could have still potentially cost a bunch of folks money depending on the nature of the bets they made.
Hmmmm maybe its a bad idea to allow for rampant sports betting? But no they dont seem to care at all for some reason unless their players do it??
If politicians can inside trade and tell spouses of market altering events and legislation, players should be able to bet on games they have no impact on.
Or maybe both should be illegal?
Two wrongs don't make a right.
22:11 I watched that game live. I do not blame the running back. I blame the coach for putting in an injured qb over a proven backup qb.
21:25 the point shaving was University of San Diego not San Diego State
Excellent and timely coverage!
are you going to start claiming wolfeyvgc is gambling on his own sets now or something lmfao
Fan duel ad before this video btw 😂
Honestly I don't know all the ins and outs of gambling, but I do know that seeing constant ads for gambling before, during, and after games is really souring my enjoyment of sports. It all just feels so incredibly slimy.
$500k as an interpreter is wild
yeah he already won the life lottery and decided to blow it all for greed.
Fire video also bro is was watching your video on Bryce Harper and this came out
This vid seems a bit slimy considering the latter half is almost a puff piece on why legalized gambling actually helps and that his regular sponsors are draft kings and fanduel.
Using a clip of the 07 western conference finals gave me PTSD. Nash won a ring that year, and screw anyone who says otherwise.
You know it wasn't that long ago that we enacted The Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992. Only 26 years and we already forgot why the law was put in place.
Tip for all would be criminals: Feds will flip all your homies. Just get a job bro.
Crime pays significantly better than a day job though. Or so I'm told...
I had a Fanduel ad during this video
The 3 minute part just about their friendship was the best part of the video.
man that soccer segment made me wish you covered soccer too. Great video.
I honestly believe all sports should be the same as boxing in Nevada. Players should be allowed to bet on themselves to win. That’s it
Unfortunately, it's not that hard for that to be abused. If your team and my team are playing a series, you and I can have an agreement where the first game I throw and you bet, while the second game you throw and I bet.
It definitely does have a gambling issue somebody just say bro if you get again you get a permanent ban
It's actually kind of hilarious that Ipe just lied about what was being translated and got away with it for like 2 weeks.
I would imagine Baseball is a very unpredictable sport to bet single games on. On a season the best teams tend to rise to the top, but there is little guarantee in a game that’s affected by the slightest variables with very few chances to score a run. In American Football or Basketball if a team is on fire they are going to beat the teams below them 90% of the time, because they will have far more opportunities to score, and steal the possession away from the weaker team.
I read the affidavit and, for the most part, I feel that the story checks out and Ohtani had no involvement in the gambling. With that said, I'm very skeptical of the bank account that Ohtani set up with Ippei. They made it in 2018 when Ohtani came to the States and it was the account in which the Angels paid Ohtani. Ohtani was under the impression that it was being managed by his finance team but Ippei barred them from accessing it saying that Ohtani was using it for personal reasons and they simply trusted Ippei when he told them that there were no gifts or interests accrued. Betting with this bookkeeper allegedly didn't start until 2021 meaning that this bank account supposedly went untouched for 3 years. Granted Ohtani was making so much from his endorsements that he didn't need to tap into this account, but I'm still curious as to Ippei's, or potentially Ohtani's, intentions were regarding this bank account.
That's insane that Ohtani's finance team just let ippe tell them what to do. That would be neglect on their part which is why Ohtani 100% knew of Ippes gambling issues and did try to help him. I don't think Ohtani would bet on any sport, but he def knew to some degree. Also who gives a random person that much a high limit to bet?
I think the mlb helped cover it up. Why would he bet on everything but baseball unless it was for otahni who knew he’d get a slap on the wrist as long as he didn’t touch baseball.
@@JJ-zr6fu are you insane
@@BrowniesByTheLake lol you don't know the MLB. Explain why there were no baseball bets if ohtani wasn't involved. If he's such a degenerate gambler why didn't he try gambling in the sport he had an edge in? Stealing 16 million is fine but he draws the line at betting on baseball.
@@JJ-zr6fu so the answer is yes then. Put the tin foil hat down and use your brain for once.
My first reaction to the Ohtani news was that there was no way he didn’t know. I never even considered that Ippei would be the only one able to relay information to Ohtani. It actually makes perfect sense. I can’t imagine how betrayed Ohtani must feel about this. He literally gave the dude everything and it wasn’t enough.
This story actually puts Ohtani in extremely favorable light, since it showcases his trustworthiness and loyalty to the man he probably trusted more than anyone in America.
Ultimate betrayal
And even before we knew the full scope of the story, I was still willing to give Ohtani the benefit of the doubt.
This very channel did a video on Ohtani speculating on his free agency back in November. The one thing that stuck out to me: it's never been about the money to Ohtani. This is a man that never moved out of his team dormitory (which is mostly occupied by rookies) in Japan. This is a man that let his parents control his bank account in Japan. His parents would give him a monthly allowance that was equivalent to $1K a month US, yet on average he'd only spend about $200 US a month. Finally, when he signed that huge contract with the Dodgers ($700M US/10 years at $70M AAY), he opted to defer $68M per year and is essentially only playing for $2M a year until the contract expires at the end of the 2033 season (which in itself is another issue entirely as I highly doubt the deferred contract rules were designed with such an obscenely large contract in mind, but that's a debate for another time)
Any other player in the league? Yeah, I'd be questioning everything. However, with how little regard Ohtani seems to give to money, I knew even before the full extent of everything was known that it was highly plausible that he'd be completely clueless to what was happening behind his back.
Unfortunately, because of the fact that much of that is not widely known, you're going to see a bunch of idiots screaming about how there is no possible way Ohtani is innocent for months if not years, at which point these people will be so entrenched in their line of thinking that they'll outright refuse to listen to reason.
@@Enigma1788 The man lives and breathes baseball, but like any other super star in a sport, people who have been praying for his downfall will use this instance of the man's absolutely trusting nature to deride him of every past present and future accomplishment he has.
@@LaughingJokerProd Oh those fanbois. Actually not knowing the person they worship, but believing every crap they say. Even if its insane as the story given of the lackey being the gambler, while Ohtani is innocent. I dont know whats more hilarious: The lies MLB/govt/Ohtani camp give to fanbois, or those fanbois actually believing the BS.
I understand 10 year old fans believing their heroes until the end, but grown ups? Thats grotesque. When somebody turned 14, latest by then he shall understand whats legit and what not. Even with a low IQ, little education, being naive without any life experience.
And no, us sane people dont pray for a downfall of a man we dont know. We just dont care. Baseball is bigger than a high stakes gambler hitting and throwing balls. But people like him destroy the last bit of integrety MLB migh have had. Ohtani has no place in baseball, shall be banned for life.
@@Enigma1788 Ohtani is the Warren Buffett of baseball.
The fixed game scandal in Taiwan's pro baseball kind of ruined my childhood baseball dream, my parents opposed me to play baseball at the time due to the scandal. But so glad all these fixed games were past tense, the government and the CPBL worked hard to prevent this from happening again.
It’s all about what you can beat on. In Australia you can’t beat on unders on player stats
I was super hoping the sponsor for the video was going to be Draft Kings.
BEST BASEBALL CHANNEL ON YT!
If baseball existed
My men’s league basketball just introduced player betting
Is anyone really that surprised that they're making the translator the fall guy lol?
Not at all.
Anyone else find the saints Rams no call in the championship game the year the LA first came back into the league suspicious? The NFL wanted La in the super bowl so badly wanted to generate interest in the team so badly, then to have them walk in on the worst no-call pass interference that anyone has ever seen is beyond suspicious.
Wasn’t the first year. It was their second or third season back in LA.
That entire game was full of missed calls, it was horribly from the refs all over. That's wasn't the rams first year in LA, but it's very possible that the league did something similar to what they did in that ravens 49ers Superbowl, trying to make the game close to maintain ratings, and then having to reverse the closeness when the team they screwed over initially was going to lose.
Everything people feared about widespread gambling having an impact on a games integrity is starting to happen. This is just the beginning.
Fan Duel was the ad before this video started by the way.
Not to compare but I want to commend Yao Ming's interpreter. He also had a super close knit relationship with his interpreter but it was like Yao's interpreter was training him to stand alone on his own feet as a English Speaker but more so as a man. I think that is a real friend--someone who will teach you how to fish. I always thought it was strange that Ipe was still translating for Ohtani after all of these years. . . .
If I were Ohtani's interpreter I would have played the background and been way more professional. If it became more than a business relationship, that would be a cue to end it there and just be friends and I am speaking platonic relationships, too.
I think that is the issue. Ohtani is a foreign player and needed a friend and his interpreter became more than just that and it caused him harm. Sports business practitioners should be looking out for the best interest of their clients not mudding the waters. I wonder if Ohtani has any friends outside of Ipe? This is reminding me of the Preachers Wife. The angel had fallen in love with the wife and was going over boundaries. I am not saying at all that this is a romantic relationship but as a business--client relationship roles must work with BOUNDARIES! Interpeters are angels. They are supposed to be anonymous and just flies on the wall. They aren't supposed to take the place of the person they are interpreting for. I believe that Ipe took advantage of Ohtani for this reason. I think Ohtani is just a baseball player and has too much to do in life and has no time for gambling. But by association, which is a crime in the US, he might lose everything. That's messed up!
that's a lot of words, but the real issue is that he has a gambling addiction.
This is the problem you have when you make gambling, drinking and strip clubs/sex stuff legal in some ways and illegal in other ways. People just assume it’s ok especially if it’s marketed by big companies and public businesses. Only the most moral people are going to stay away from it.
... and those with a working brain stay away from it, you forgot to mention ;-)
Because us sane people know its impossible to beat the vigorish of 2 up to 10%.
Pls upload more often love your vids❤
Not even halfway through the video and have already had two ads for sports betting 😂
Not a single thing has ever come from gambling that was good.
Agreed. 99% of the population don't make a profit from gambling. It's only a profit-maker for the owners. The entire business model is based on the faulty human psychology that they're gonna be the one who beats the odds. We all have this special belief that we are the chosen one, but the odds don't care about any of that.
I like how this video has been out for LESS THAN A MINUTE, and already people commenting "awesome video" "I loved the video" 😂 WTF!!!!
Video was dropped hours ago actually. Why is your internet so slow?
@@MystiqWisdomthis comment is from 2 hours ago. Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, eh?
They're trying to be supportive
Great videos! I’m getting into baseball with not a lot of other sports to watch rn. Your videos are great entertainment and are helping me catch up on what is happening in the league.
It's actually wholesome to see how best of friends these guys were before gambling got involved, this is just the MLB trying to scapegoat and distract from problems *THEY'VE ENABLED*
Ofc channels like this that get sponsored by organized betting apps etc will downplay its effects, sports betting always existed, the problem is how intwined its become once the leagues OFFICIALLY started endorsing and even advertising the services in the games themselves.
'Legal betting may make things like this LESS likely'
Lmao who are you fooling, especially with everything said before and after even?
