Legalizing sports gambling was such a horrible decision. It has infested nearly every sport like a parasite.

It’s 1a for me as the worst decision in modern history, 1b is legalizing direct to consumer medicine marketing.

I’d say letting politicians take money from interest groups is probably top on my list, but sports gambling definitely isn’t great.

I love gambling! it makes it so much more fun to watch and it definitely incentivizes me to watch sports I don’t care as much about. We don’t need the government involved in victimless entertainment

Definitely not victimless. But I’m not saying it should be illegal.

Yeah but I’m playing $10 on a 5 team parlay, 8 million is pretty excessive
