    How is fantasy sports considered legal by the government?
    I don't get it.

    This is as much as gambling as making a bet on a game, or playing online poker, I don't get the reasoning behind it.

    When we registered for the Beat The Prick contest, we had to sign up at Draft Kings. Anyway, after doing that, I ended up checking out their site. They even except money through PayPal, I couldn't believe it. I've already given them $900 (you're welcome, SBR), and have actually made a little money. They gorge you like hell with their vig on heads-up matches, but it's kind of fun. It's actually much more exhausting than betting on a game. Way more time-consuming.

    But back to my original point, how is this stuff legal?

    Also, does anyone else play over there? I could use some tips.
