When Penn Entertainment offloaded Barstool Sports, the suits at the company inevitably exhaled thinking that the long list of PR gaffes were a thing of the past.

However, this weekend, Rece Davis created a problem of “Can’t Lose Parlay” proportions when his off the cuff remark about wagering on ESPN Bet blew up the internet.
