My bet to win it all is the abled but faking parapalegic basketball team.

Just, uh...only if I can still keep my money when it is discovered these people can walk a week after the Olympics.

Look, I'm all for gambling become legalized in general and destigmatized, but...c'mon now, in the same way not everything should seek privatized profits not everything needs to have official gambling done in its name.

This is pretty much the real-life version of Cartman making money by starting a sport where he has crack babies play basketball against each other or The Ringer.

If you can bet on able bodied sport, then why not? It's not as if no one has ever tried to rig the former.

Seems kind of patronizing to make a distinction. Those athletes don't want to be treated any differently.

This. It was a screenplay that got around in Hollywood as a concept that would never get made due to the subject matter, and then South Park went ahead and did it since nobody would touch it.

I don't support criminalizing behavior in general. But the legalization and wide acceptance of gambling was a big mistake, at least in the way we've done it here. It's gotten completely out of hand and has wormed its way into everything.

It just "feels" wrong to some people, I guess. I can kinda see where they're coming from, but I'm of the view that such a perception is more discriminatory than helpful - it's not actually addressing a need or helping people with disabilities overcome an obstacle, it's just purely treating them differently on the grounds that they have disabilities.
