Indians Hire Ex-Con Gambler as Host

(...again, a great title )

Found this interesting story from the AP...the Indians have hired a former Cleveland radio personality to host a Cleveland Indians-based tv show on a network owned by the club. The issue is the fact the man was released from prison about three weeks ago after serving five months for not paying taxes on earnings from gambling. He admits he won while gambling on baseball.

Apparently this isn't a problem since Cleveland has ensured the MLB Offices the guy won't have access to the clubhouse and will only be allowed into the press box at the stadium.

Does anyone else think this may be a slippery slope?

Wow, what horrible judgment on the Indians part.

In what way could this possibly be construed as a "good" idea? Absolutely no good can come of it.
