Kosar, 59, placed the first legal sports bet in Ohio, according to his Twitter, wagering $19,000 on the Browns to win, and promised to donate the money to charity if he won.

I don’t understand why they fired him for that. I don’t like that it’s legal in Ohio, but it is legal now so he didn’t do anything wrong according to the law. I know I’m biased because Kosar is my favorite football player of all time, but still….

Shitty situation, the rule is the rule, but it’s a shit rule Umatter

Well. That was a dumb move on Kosar’s part. He only has himself to blame.

Betting should be outlawed. Ppl supposedly have no money are betting on this foolishness.

...that would've been donated to charity. Dude doing good with the money that would've helped people.

Why does the NFL partner with gambling entities and then penalize people associated with the league for gambling? Kosar is a radio host - who gives a shit if he gambles?
