    Jack Edwards to retire

    I became a real Bruins fan with Jack Edwards (became a real follower late in my life). And those were the periods of my life right after college where the best years of sports were. I barely watch any games now since I don't have NESN, but there was one point this past season that I found a...

    Tatum or Ant?

    Don't forget that you also end up getting superstars like Tom Cruise and George Clooney to sign on as well.

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Oh I absolutely think the two stories at the beginning added a great amount of stink to the whole thing. That being said, I do think some would still be looking for the juicy story...but I don't know for sure since that isn't what happened. I do know though that we've had many stories of famous...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    I just wanted to get one final word which is that I posed my previous message before bed and I woke up expecting some backlash, and appreciate that so far, I didn't kick a hornet's nest that resulted in some sort of attack on me and my feelings. I tried very hard so be non-accusatory and...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    There is one thing I want to get off my chest as I sat here wondering why I even give two shits about this. And I want to make sure I'm as clear as I can be with this and I'm not outwardly accusing anyone of consciously doing this out of any sort of malice. Here it is. Some of you may know that...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Everyone keeps on wondering why someone didn't notice 16m disappearing like it happened all in one huge withdrawal. Ohtani losing a few hundred thousand a week or month or whatever is probably like me noticing someone took bought a meal at Chipotle with my credit card fraudulently...which is to...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    The real question is how many people will continue any sort of narrative that Ohtani bet on baseball besides there being no actual evidence of him having done so. Based on the fact that there are already comments about the interpretor being a fall guy or this doesn't prove that Ohtani didn't bet...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Do they? Because if you read this thread, it's sure full of people that can't fathom that Ohtani could have gotten his money stolen in some way.

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Apologies if I painted with too broad of a brush. I'm not an expert either being not Japanese nor not knowing anyone from Japan, but I'm willing to accept that the culture there is so different and that the experiences I have had have virtually no bearing on Ohtani. I'm not Japanese, I've never...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Please don't misunderstand what I'm saying. Everyone is able to have their own opinions and thoughts on what may or may not have happened...but when someone is providing some insight into a different race and culture and seems to be getting push back in every single aspect, it reminds me of...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    I love how many people are comparing their experiences as Americans growing up in America to a person from a whole different part of the world with a very different culture even when someone who is most likely way more familiar with that area and culture is trying to explain why things may have...

    Ah that's fair criticism of the words I've been using. Turns out words are important!

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    This is also true. I certainly have never said that no one should post their opinions...but then the people that think this is a nothing story short of new facts emerging also belong in the thread too (not that anyone has said otherwise).

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Yes! That's what I've been saying. Yet many are already talking like he obviously made bets. Really? It's obvious? Whatever...I have no horse in this race. It just amazes me that some people were extremely quick to say that because it was so much money that clearly Ohtani made the bets and...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    That's certainly one way to take what I said...but it would be the wrong way. Please tell me when there is evidence that he made a single bet. Transferring money does not equate to making a bet. No prosecutor would take anyone to court over illegal betting if all they had were money transfers...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Uh no...it isn't. No even close. I would wire money who happens to be a bookie and that would not be at all evidence that I placed a bet on anything. That's like saying I gave money to a casino to pay for food at a restaurant and that is proof that I was gambling at black jack. It's pretty...

    And just to note that there still isn't any evidence he actually bet on anything at all.

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    You literally said they told two different stories which is not the same thing as conflating two stories into one. If either story proves to be true, I'm not concerned about anything. If there is some weird third story (which many people appear to conjuring up out of thin air without any...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Is that what happened or is this more jumping to conclusions? That's a rhetorical question by the way. You've just managed to conflate two stories into a single one. I just said that I would not be bothered in the least if either story was proven to be true. Your take on the matter is a...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Like I said...I'm not clear on why the story changed. If it matches the first story, then I'm totally unconcerned. If it matches the second story, then I'm also unconcerned. If there is clear evidence Ohtani himself went through the illegal bookie to make bets, then there are problems.
