Rumors are that Janet Jones (aka Janet Jones Gretzky, Janet Gretzky, Janet Marie Jones, Janet-Marie Jones, Janet Jones-Gretzky http://imdb.com/name/nm0428314/) placed $500,000 worth of bets over 39 days.  That is amazing considering the total handle of the ring was $1.7 million.  It is also being reported that Wayne Gretzky was wire tapped.  This is going to get really ugly for the NHL.

Edit: Here's the ESPN link with the info I posted above http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=2324402

Edit #2: You know you have a problem when you are betting $5000 on the opening coin flip of the Super Bowl.

Are we allowed to hope that CuJo and Sauve have gambling issues? Or is that just begging to have Lenny snared in the same net.

I ask because the horse has already left the barn on those impure thoughts.
