I am thinking all these essentially hit pieces on the sports betting industry for the last year plus were designed to slowly get the general non public to be against legal sports betting and in the case of blumenthal to get federal legislation involved from Tonko and blumenthal in addition to gobert and now Bickerstaff along with Haliburton not being let’s say in favor of legal sports betting saying their props like Halliburton or bickerstaff due to immaturity by people who threaten him because essentially they don’t want him to do his job and want to win their bets. I just wonder how the industry may come out of this as this boom they got will end in a horrible bust if they can’t do damage control.

Considering the week of news, we may be moving beyond damage control and hurtling towards state, or dare I say federal intervention.

I think so as you see the sports betting industry try to do half ass essentially measures like rg tools etc but with everything going on I do think more state or federal involvement with UK style bills as they are doing the same mistakes they did in the UK to get the government involved with major legislation
