[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 525306, member: 2426"] If I get a family member to sign up with satellite service and receive a $50 gift card for doing so, is that bribery? If I get a coworker to use the same brokerage that I do and we both get a $250 dollar account credit, is that bribery? I do understand that he was a government worker and had some level of authority over the guys. But from what I understand, he was paid and the athletes were paid for the athletes to sign with the management company and the advisor. I don't understand how a financial transaction that is mutually beneficial to all parties involved, and does not interfere with the coaches normal job responsibilities can be considered a criminal bribe. I do understand him accepting a plea. Federal prosecutors have an almost unlimited budged and unlimited resources. If he fought he could have ended up with significant prison time. [/QUOTE]
