Dug up this old article. I had no idea about this. How is he still in the league? Pretty obvious he was in on the whole Donaghy scandal. What a Joke.

Foster is the official who received 134 phone calls from disgraced referee Tim Donaghy between October 2006 and April 2007, as originally reported by FOX News. That was the same period during which Donaghy admitted to betting on NBA games. The report said that Donaghy called Foster more than any other ref and that he didn’t call any other official more than 13 times.
Donaghy’s calls to Foster took place immediately before and after games Donaghy was officiating 54 times.
The initial report showed the following call log from the day of Dec. 30, 2006:

10:34 a.m. – Donaghy calls Foster.
10:35 a.m. – Donaghy calls another referee.
10:36 a.m. – Donaghy calls [Thomas] Martino, the “middleman” between him and his bookie.
10:39 a.m. – Donaghy calls Foster.
5:15 p.m. – Donaghy calls Martino.
5:23 p.m. – Donaghy calls Martino.
7 p.m. – Donaghy referees game between the Miami Heat and the Orlando Magic. The Magic win in a rout, 97-68.
8 p.m. – Foster referees a game between the Toronto Raptors and the Memphis Grizzlies in Memphis. The Grizzlies win 110-104. Foster and Donaghy speak 12 minutes after the game.
11:27 p.m. – Foster and Donaghy speak for at least the fourth time of the day.
11:38 p.m. – Foster and Donaghy speak for at least the fifth time of the day.

The records also showed Donaghy making several calls to Foster on the days of games, generally for no more than two minutes.
The report also said that when Donaghy called Foster, he mostly used the phone that he dedicated to gambling-related phone calls, and the phone calls stopped abruptly when Donaghy said he stopped gambling.

the referees are just sheep for the NBA...they are told what to do. Of course there are many more refs involved in the BS that is the NBA and Donaghy was a scapegoat. Pretty sure he got a large payday from the NBA after his firing to shut him up about implicating any of the other refs.

Yeah but just the sheer volume of phone records and the short length of time of the calls and the timeline make it so obvious Foster was in on it. Im really surprised this got swept under the rug and the NBA didn't take more heat to get rid of Foster as well.

He worked the last 3 deciding games of the finals including spurs heat game 7 and went 14-1 SU last year in the playoffs for the road team - he is as corrupt as they come and unsurprisingly the NBA's most used ref in important games

One day it will all come out. The fukking commish is vouching for gambling for crying out loud.

Zionists like Adam Silver and David Stern only care about the shekels they can gain, to hell with morality and integrity.

When one watches an NHL playoff game, then switches over to an NBA playoff game, you realize what an incredibly crappy product the NBA is. Torturously boring to watch. The biggest factor is the ref. NBA refs act as if they get paid by the whistle. I watch and have to ask why the hell they call so many ticky-tack fouls and don't just let the boys play?? My only answer is that they must be under order to prolong the game in order to sell more TV commercials. Nothing else makes sense.

It already has, then the NBA sued the (already "disgraced") ref who spilled the beans for the cost of every pair of shoes they gave him before the games he officiated.

The NBA fukkin took the dude's shoes back.
