    Appeals court to reconsider New Jersey sports betting case

    NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - Supporters of legalized sports betting in New Jersey have won a victory in court.
    The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia voted Wednesday to reconsider an earlier ruling that banned New Jersey's attempt to offer sports betting at casinos and racetracks.
    That means the 2-1 ruling in August is vacated, and the full 3rd Circuit will rule on the case.
    New Jersey passed a law to allow sports betting but was sued in 2012 by the four major sports leagues and the NCAA.
    Courts have sided with the leagues so far. But the state claims two separate rulings by the 3rd Circuit offer opposing interpretations, making the issue unresolved.

    I think this is a good sign but if this fails and they lose the vote then it's all over

    If it is legal it needs to be regulated. If it is regulated it needs to be licensed. Sounds like a great question - you have a license for that pussy?

    Sports betting will prolly be legal in many states by 2017 but

    how Jesus Damned greedy will each state be?Former Vegas oddsmaker Roxborough made the odds of legal USA sports betting(obviously not talkin about current states that have it)a decent 4-1 by '17 BUT he stated Nevada will prolly still have the lowest takeout in the nation
