During the media appearances in support of his book, Tim Donaghy routinely hyped the supposed role of organized crime in the scandal. For example, this is a montage of Donaghy describing "the mob" visiting him in December 2006 at the PHL Airport Marriott and the chilling effect it had on him. As someone with a research agenda on organized crime, I predictably spend considerable time on this issue in Gaming the Game: The Story Behind the NBA Betting Scandal and the Gambler Who Made It Happen (Barricade, 2011).
