Hourning did not bet against the Packers. There is a big difference. If you bet ON your team, you try as hard as you can to win, which you should do anyway. Obviously, if you bet against your team you will ot give maximum effort. I douby Hourning or Karras would have been reinstated if they bet against theri team as it would certtainly call in to question the integrity of the game itself.

I do beleive there is danger in gambling no matter who you bet on. But, just like murder, society has different degrees of guilt and punishment for different crimes.

I still think football's should not be compared to baseball JMO
