They, as well as all of the other sports, frown upon gambling however, I got an email form the Texans yesterday offering a "kangaroo handheld tv" that i can rent for the season so that i can access the NFL Sunday Ticket in my seats so that i can follow my fantasy football team.
how is that gambling? you are gambling on getting that tv and watching the Texans suck it up this season?
What? I am not getting a gambling vibe from it. I think you are reading much more into it than is there. One thing I do notice is that people that gamble try to relate everything sports-related to it. Gamblers don't need to watch a game anyway, they just need the scores, which the Texans put up on the side scoreboards constantly. I do think it is weird that they are encouraging their own fans to watch other games in the stadium while the game is going on. I do know there are a few people who only tailgate at the games and don't have tickets, so they can now watch the game from the parking lot I guess. But why would anyone pay for season tickets, and then watch TV while in the stadium? It makes absolutely no sense to me. I know that the Texans are 1 of 4 stadiums offering this as a pilot program, but they really need to define the market. I have no idea who would buy this.
