    1. +1 and this will be the tip of the iceberg that will touch professional sports, I hate to say it but college as well.
      Time will tell.

  1. I’m usually not a fan of governmental interference in business, but here’s my recommendation for “regulating” sports betting: Ban it. Make it illegal. Yes, I know many people will do it anyway, just as many people run stop signs and red lights and exceed the speed limit. But making it illegal sets a tone that clearly needs to be set. At a minimum, it will get all the obnoxious ads off of TV, which in itself would be a victory.
