Unfortunately for gamblers, Scott Foster couldn’t give the Clippers enough free throws to beat YOUR Phoenix Suns.
“I’m happy for the Suns, I’ve been rooting for them ever since I read a sports blog that contractually obligated me to be a Suns fan,” said one unfortunate gambler. “I just wish I didn’t have to go tell my family that I lost a whole month’s salary betting on the Clippers. My partner reads the same blog, and she’s going to be furious that I bet against our favorite NBA team.”
Did Scott Foster pull a fast one and place his own bet on a Suns victory? The world would love to find out!
