At the NFL Pro Bowl, Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald told Eagles RB Brian Westbrook that he ruined his fantasy team when he slid down at the goal line against the Cowboys with a four-point lead.
“You ruined my fantasy football team,” Fitzgerald said.
Not to be a douche, but this could be a problem. Fitzgerald should keep his mouth shut about playing fantasy football. The NFL and every sports league (the NBA maybe?) REALLY looks down upon gambling. You think Fitzgerald plays for free? Yeah, right. We aren’t suggesting that he would drop touchdowns so that his team wins games, not at all. We just think he should shut his mouth regarding his participation in the game of fantasy football. There is no reason to open the discussion.
Especially on the heels of what the NBA is already dealing with.
