Falcons coach Arthur Smith just doesn't understand the problem with the concealment of running back Bijan Robinson's illness on Sunday.

    I’m all with Smith on this one. Betting and fantasy has infiltrated every part of sports. A coach shouldn’t have to disclose every detail that would impact a players performance out of concern for gamblers and fantasy players. That’s ridiculous.

    This is fucking stupid. So god damned what. Fuck your bets. Fuck your wagers. Let the coaches run the teams how they best see fit to try to make it to the SB. That’s the goal of every team every year. Not to make sure the gamblers have solid info for placing bets.

    If it weren’t for betting and fantasy football nobody would watch the Falcons. Any given Sunday there’s better more exciting games for football fans to watch. Arthur Smith can say fuck the gamblers/fantasy owners all he wants. Sit on his high horse as the Jersey sales and TV money wash away.

    He didn’t miss practice time and played in the game. I don’t think any rules were broken. Does every little paper cut or headache need to be reported?

    How inconsiderate of Bijan to get sick on a Saturday night, doesnt he know that he has 120 hours that he can gt sick on but he must be good to go for Vegas during that 48 hour span?

    The tidal wave of sports wagering being shoved in my face enjoys the chaos these type of problems creates for the league. I don’t think integrity is of the most concern for them, what could it be?

    It is absolutely ridiculous to me that the argument is just “it has to be fair to gamblers!”

    The NFL should have never accepted a partnership with any gambling companies.
