      You'll never be free though. Try and live free and see what happens to you. We have cops with 85 and 90IQs that will gladly kill you for any reason at all and still get promoted.

      It's still better to have some illusion of freedom than none at all. It could be worse. You could live in state like Utah which doesn't even allow regular casinos or slots, much less sports, lol.

      I'm happy that I no longer have to deal with the offshore drug cartels that stiff people or slow pay. Fukk em. I like that my friends are no longer going to get locked up for petty weed possession, a victimless crime. It could definitely be better but it could also be way worse. Utah, Arizona, Idaho, Wisconsin, Ohio, Florida for examples. To each their own man.

          Ya, I'd rather not hijack this other guy's thread and turn it political but you make a valid point. All of the blue states are trending legal weed and legal sports. Think CA, OR, WA, NV, CO, IL, NJ, MA etc. While most red states have little desire for either. Think UT, WY, the Dakotas, TX, MO, KS, AL, FL etc. Great observation!

                Looks like Kambi, or at least Rivers Sportsbook, uses DraftKings lines. The NBA lines right now are identical.

                  As John Gruden always says, "hey, I like this guy". I say with the same enthusiasm. "Hey, I like this post." Your points are correct. As long as people have that distraction, the elite will always rule over them and throw them some bread and scraps. The TV box that flashes images at them before they lie down to bed. All the events. Everything is a distraction from reality, an escape. Most don't even want to think about the alternative. Good for you that you have!

IL went from one of the worst states to one of the most free in the span of one governor. Unreal. A lot of states don't gaf about anything or their citizens' freedoms.
                        Are they the only line provider in Illini, because those are pretty crap lines? Looks like NJ still the king on the new legalized states. Tons of competition, online betting.

                            it doesn't matter. I think it is quite easily the state with the biggest group of gambling degen sports action junkies with disposable income. they'll bet into anything.

                            brick and mortar get an 18 month head start into draft kings and fan duel get to launch in Illinois

                            I just hope Wrigley for sure goes ahead with gambling at the ballpark. Cubs games will be even more amazing. I'd also be great if Hawthorne race track can get up and running soon and save that place.

                                  Ya considering only one casino sportsbook in the state right now is open. Just wait another year, then....compare NJ and IL. IL doesn't even have their corporate casino sportsbooks open yet. We have Caesars and Hollywood properties that will open. Horsetrack facilities that will open, fairmount already applied. And actual sports stadiums that will open. Gotta give it some time bud, it just started.

                                  1 book in whole state right now only. Next year the online only places will be able to set up too DKs, Fanduel. IL has the best law passed by any state so far but also the slowest implementation. It's liberal af though, books will be everywhere. Casinos, horsetracks, nascar, MLB stadiums, online apps.
