  1. Pete Rose’s career was ruined by sports betting. Now sports betting is sponsoring NCAA and professional events. Professional sports banned advertising by cigarette and alcohol companies, but sports betting is readily accepted. Something is wrong with this picture.

  2. I’ve never bet using one of these services or a neighborhood “guy”. However, what I find amazing is that you see the teasers saying something like “Bet $10 and win $200, guaranteed”. It is only when you read the tiny print in your TV, do you see that the $200 is only good for about a week and is “non-withdrawalable”. Meaning, it is fake money just stoking a naive bettor to get deeper and deeper with real money. No thanks.
