Bernie Kosar Sues Podcast Company

     Former Univresity of Miami Hurricanes and Miami Dolphins quarterback Bernie Kosar is suing a podcast company Bigplay Media for losing his job with a radio station. Kosar stated that was forced to make a sports bet by that organization. 

     Kosar made the first sports bet in the state of Ohio on the first day that sports gambling became legal. He made a wager on a contest between the Cleveland Browns and the Pittsburgh Steelers in early January 2013. 

     He worked at ESPN Cleveland WKNR-AM and was part of the Cleveland Browns pregame show as a studio analyst. Kosar was dismissed by the Browns for violating a National Football League policy by an NFL employee for betting on a NFL contest. 

     Kosar led the Miami Hurricanes to their first football national championship in 1983. He later played for the Dolphins from 1994 to 1996. Kosar is best known being with the Cleveland Browns from 1985 until 1993. He landed with the Dallas Cowboys later in the 1993 season and won a Super Bowl with them.
