Please make it stop. I can’t take it anymore. I want to take a chain saw to my big flat-screen every time I see another ad for sports betting. Which is … every commercial break … of every game.
We get it, DraftKings. You too, FanDuel. Ditto BetMGM. You keep telling us how easy it is to … make … it … rain.
It is implied to be free money, right? We can’t lose, right? We are smarter than the average fan, so if we just go with our instincts, we can make a bundle just sitting on our couch.
Or, more likely, we’ll end up being one of a million suckers who’ll regret ever placing that first “legal” bet.
