Then what are Crockett and Tubbs supposed to do ?

Don't make Edward James Olmos give you a staredown, lol....

Big for ESPN believe it or not. Great timing for negotiations coming.

But... this will corrupt the purity of college football and basketball.

Rejoice, degenerates everywhere!

I cant wait to spend the first weekend of the NCAA tournament betting on games, horses, and blackjack at Oaklawn.

Well if nothing else, at least we'll have gambling commercials mixed in with our dilly dilly and ***** (sorry, male genitalia) pills.

Just one more thing the addiction network can advertise treatments for as well.

Will be interesting to see how a lot of this plays out. What's the standard vig gonna be? Vegas is at 10% and are pretty much stuck there due to the amount of competition. It's 5% on the #1 illegal sports betting site. I wonder if they will cease operations in the US and/or if the government is gonna go after them hard now that they're taking precious tax dollars away.

Hopefully this will pave the way for online poker to be legalized in the next few years even though it's an entirely different type of issue.
