ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) -- A sportsbook in New Jersey is refunding bets on the New Orleans Saints due to the widespread belief that the team was victimized by a blown call by referees during its loss Sunday in the NFC championship game.PointsBet said Monday it will refund spread and money-line bets on the Saints, who lost the game after officials failed to call a penalty on a Los Angeles Rams defender who leveled a New Orleans receiver long before the ball arrived.

The book just opened so it probably had 200 in bets on the Saints.

Damn you know you ****** up as a professional when a for-profit business is literally giving away money because you didn't do your job.Comment -
Pretty incredible.Comment -
Refunding those bets is a great investment for book..Comment -
I agree. Just think what they could accomplish with just a few little tweaks. They could get all the business.
How about these rules!
Paid bets for:
1. Fix was in.
2. Losses do to officiating (appears to already be in place).
3. No way a team could lose, and did.
Money back for:
1. Accidently pressed wrong key.
2. My 4 year old kid was banging on the computer.
3. My degenerate teenager made the bet.
4. My degenerate wife made the bet.
5. Was getting bj and my asss made the bet.
6. My shrink said I'm not allowed to gamble.
7. Etc.
Could be some great breaks coming to the players.Comment
