Fantasy football as termination offense

Well it had to happen at some point. Investment giant Fidelity has fired four fantasy football commissioners for gambling. Now that gambling assessment could be a stretch, but at will employment means good reason, bad reason or no reason at all is a lawful basis for termination. One of the unfortunate cuts claims his only workplace involvement in the league was receipt of an IM involving Trent Edwards and his less than stellar year. Mr. unemployed should have picked Drew.
