You hit a triple. I have not enjoyed the legalization of sports gambling in my area. Sports gambling ads all the time now. 100% parasitic capitalism. We’ll probably have to wait to see the effects it has on kids now who will grow up seeing gambling ads every time they watch their favourite team play
It’s one of those recent developments that I’m surprised and horrified happened. Wasn’t sports betting previously illegal, other than racetracks? Kind of like how casinos were “oh, gambling is immoral, we only do that in Las Vegas” and then “well also Indian Reservations” and then “oh, we have them downtown in cities now”.
I certainly went off on a rant there. Instinctually, it feels like I should appologize for losing it like that, but the thing is…I’m not sorry. Yes my rant may have at times steered off topic, and maybe rambled a bit too much, but I stand by every word. Uhhhh, except for the typo. It was meant to say “baffling” not “bafflinx” or whatever it was.
I’m not sorry, because it needed to be said. It needed to be said for a long time. It needs to be said by more people. It needs to be said in places where more people can see it, and get the message. It needs to be said until it’s talked about by everyone. Until it’s taken seriously. Until it’s not a political issue.
Still though, only a triple??? Damn. Third base coach must be playing cautious today. I thought it was at least an in the park home run!
Welp. I didn’t live up to the expectations set upon me then. Guess I’ll start getting death threats from in debt gamblers now…
