simply by the nature of his employment that requires him to travel makes it likely he needed to be in contact to get his bets off and to share the information. There has to be a trail.

its a disingenuous article. If the spread changed by 2 points in the games he worked, how about mentioning the change in spread for the rest of the league? was it considerably lower? higher?
