    If there is politics and capitalism, you know there is corruption, same thing.

    Just saw the NCAA's first "only a loser would harass a college athlete after losing a bet" (actual quote) tv commercial.

    I'm sure it'll do a lot of good.

    Pete Rose, according to him, bet responsibly.
    so did Art Schlichter, the standout QB from Ohio State, and a former NFL 1st round pick

    Betting for me is a social event and so much fun. We gather up with friends make ready beers, pizza and coupons. I almost always lose though.

    Sports gambling needs to stay in casino sportsbooks and "underground" apps and such. The sponsoring of major sports leagues, commercials, and advertisements need to stop. Major sports own homepages posting odds on games needs to stop. You can't have it plastered all over your league and not expect your players to inevitably get involved. You're corrupting your own game by having your feet in it.
