NFL betting: League, bettors must take Brian Flores' allegations seriously

On Tuesday, former Dolphins head coach Brian Flores filed an explosive lawsuit against the NFL and three of its teams (Giants, Dolphins, Broncos).

At the heart of the lawsuit, Flores alleges that the NFL and its teams have displayed a pattern of racial discrimination during the hiring process for coaching and executive positions. This is obviously a very serious allegation and one that certainly has legs when you consider the NFL currently has just one Black head coach.

However, there was another allegation in the lawsuit that was also very serious and should be taken seriously, especially by those of us who like to bet on NFL football on a regular basis.
