He'll go to jail for the dogs, but he'll be banned from the NFL for life, most likely, for the gambling.

I see it their way; dogs killing each other doesn't directly affect the integrity of the sport, but gambling easily could. Like, somebody gets into debt with their bookie, then bookie says, 'We'll call it even if you flub a couple of passes (or whatever), and if you don't, we'll rat you out to the NFL for gambling and you'll be looking for a new job'. THAT would destroy the fairness of games and make it pointless to watch them. So, they must come down hard on any gambling.

It's mind-boggling what this will ultimately have cost him. Most of his big contract, all of any future contracts he might have gotten, vast amounts of endorsement dollars, probably part of his signing bonus. All told, I'd guess those six dogs he killed will have cost him a quarter of a billion dollars, or more than $40 million *per dog*. Hell, even OJ wasn't liable for that much money for killing *two people*.

People love their dogs!
