[QUOTE="dbeverly26, post: 1402955, member: 515868"] There are other reasons to do this, too. The more transparent teams are about stuff like this, the less of an opportunity big-time gamblers will have to manipulate the players and staff. Having an athletic trainer on the take in exchange for inside information isn't on par with point shaving or anything, but you just don't want to give those guys any way to get closer to your team.
