    We are in new times whether that be better or worse it's basically unexplored.
    So we have now become the testing ground.
    Will all states legalize sports betting ,poker? That question remains unanswered.
    I feel the states that don't have it feel deprived.
    I also feel the government should have taken more control. It's big money huge market.
    The profits could be used to fix a lot of problems....SS...Education cost....many things.
    But it seems they let the profits go because of the headaches of running degenerative addictions.
    Since the days of covid this world is very different we change almost daily.
    The illiterate of today are not those who can't read or write,,,,it's those who can't learn, unlearn and relearn.

    Gambling is here it has always been and always will be. It's time now to change the availability and who profits from those resources.

    As for the SB itself I thought the game was awesome.

    You aren’t rigging every game for outcomes you are swaying games for interest, excitement, ups and downs, etc. There’s only one champion each year so really you only need to make sure they get where they get to. The rest is to draw more interest with less blowouts while still making sure books remain profitable to offer betting that fans will do more when they lose and get more attached. There’s so many reasons to not let this sport be completely legit.
    How many people didn’t watch the national championship in college football? Do you how quickly money would be loss if that happened too much or on the biggest stages now? Tons.
    Risk reward, plain and simple. Too much to risk to illegally boost business.
    In this age of high tech surveillance there has been no main stream on going exposes of NFL game fixing.
    Not that some, at a very small level doesn't happen but not run from the top.
    The only people who whine about game fixing are the losing fans and gamblers.
