Football is back. The National Football League officially kicked off on Thursday, and for fans like me, Sundays from now until February will be filled with America's most popular sport. But even if you're only a casual football or TV watcher, you've probably noticed the explosion of simultaneous sports betting ads.

Jamie Foxx: Want to make every game interesting? Step 1 - Open BetMGM Sportsbook.

Kevin Hart: 200k direct for just $5? Draft-Kings, listen to me until the end.

J B Smooove: The more you play on my app, the more season rewards you get.

Check it out. Go Full Caesar.

It's hard not to notice the ads. After decades away from sports betting, the NFL is now venturing into the multi-billion dollar gaming industry. Even the Super Bowl will be held in Las Vegas at the end of this season. And for the NFL, this is the 2018 It's a clear example of the big changes that have taken place since the nation's Supreme Court decision passed in 1990.

(Audio from an archived NPR broadcast)

Ari Shapiro: Today, the U. S. Supreme Court opened the door to sports with a 6-3 majority. Here's the bottom line:

(Audio clip from the CBS Evening News program).

DZHAN KRAIFORD: The justices said that a 1992 federal law banning sports betting in all but a few states violated states' rights.

The league now has official partnerships with major betting sites like DraftKings, Fanduel and Caesars Entertainment, which means football fans can now bet on everything from how many yards the quarterback will win in a given game to who will score the first touchdown.

The league was staunchly against gambling. And then when money was literally thrown in their faces, they completely turned their backs and said, "Give me all the money! " " Caron Phillips, writing for the sports site Deadspin, says the gambling results have presented the league with a serious dilemma. (SOUND CLIP) Martin Xavier: NFL releases Arizona Cardinals players until at least next season.

Urgent news from NF L-NFL has dismissed five players for violating the league rules for gambling.

NFL has long been driven into a situation where he has long been said to be a "judge, jury, and executioner." The NFL has been processed Teflon and proved that it was too big to fail. However, if there is something that collapses NFL and deprives it, it is a gambling business, a sport fee for players, coaches, and secretariat staff.

Jamie Foxx: Want to make every game interesting? Step 1 - Open BetMGM Sportsbook.

David Padum: Society always fights in the early stages of illegal acts like sports fees in an adjustable environment. What can you do? What can you do? What violates the rules? What is allowed?

Lot: ESPN's David Pelesum was aware of the gambling industry long before the Supreme Court ruling in 2018. And complete information disclosure-Sportsbetting companies are sponsors and advertisements in ESPN. However, after the resolution, the sports betting industry has been completely different. In a sense, NFL. I heard the story over the phone.

How did this solution change the relationship between sports and betting?

Plumma: It has changed a lot. This was really surprising and very fast. Before the ruling was issued, they were at least legal versions so that the sports betting rate was restricted by Nevada. They competed to the Supreme Court. But lost. With this decision, they changed their position for sports tariffs 180 degrees, accepting sports tariffs in various ways, and working with sportsbooks. Now, the spread of coefficients, lines and glasses has been pushed in the background and hidden behind the scenes, but you can see how it was thrown in the media case. But now, I think the sport rate has always come into view in the United States' history.

Lot: Then, explain why the league resisted. Why did you oppose the expansion of sports betting?

Pardam: The league's position was that the substantial expansion of sports betting, the legalization of commissions for sports, threatened the fairness of the game. In fact, they thought it could make a game at risk, that is, gambling for gambling. There is also a version of their own facade family and trying to come up with the best way to establish their position. In fact, for example, a competitor was fighting data. At the same time, they were trying to understand, "It's good, but in fact, what is related to gambling in the game, how to make a profit and control."

So the Supreme Court in 2018 said, "Yes, each state can accept tariffs in sports." Can you tell us how NFL changed the attitude toward sports tariffs?

wonderful. They stated that legalization of sports tariffs only in New Jersey would do damage that could not be ignored to the league. And now they find it. They have a certain number of ti e-ups with sports bookmakers such as MGM, Caesters, Funduel, and Draft Kings. Apart from that, a sportsbook has been set up at the NFL stadium and may be announced during the first game this year. "Bears" probably determines the possibility of the first place. There is one rigri field stadium. If you want to play against the highest baseball league, there is a sportbook at the Arizona Cardinals Stadium. This is a rudimentary thing, how quickly they adapted their trading to this problem and found it?

And you have the ability to do it, you can clarify the story for me. You understand the partnership of NFL and some of the data from bookmaker s-they receive funds for whether their points exist in these stadiums and give them statistics. mosquito? How does it work?

Palm: Yes. If the system is different, the way of contract is different. As I know, there are also basic rental contracts. Rent a property and pay the rent. For example, some people work in the latter. In some cases, a certain percentage of the amount set in the game is received. This is a very small proportion.

In many cases, everything depends on the data. The contract says, "I will allow it in Virginia." Some sports leagues had a license for bookmakers. Then sign a partnership agreement with Fanduel and Draftkings. And in these contracts, as I know, you are actually a companion and approach that you have to acquire our data to supply it to your own sportsbook. Is possible. And this is also a way to make money.

Lot: For example, what is the motivation for competition? At first glance, they seem to have gained something without counting funds, but are they actually losing something?

Pardam: Yes, there are many times.

Everything is equipped with funds every time. How can I earn the most? It is to gather fans. In the past, the research was conducted by the IRGE points that the IRGE was played with this IRGE and the audience rating would slightly increase. If you get a point difference in this ileg, your fans will arrive delayed. In fact, for example, its audience rating is the main point they are trying to apply in marketing.

that's right. If you don't make a thread on the money, will you point more interest to this Ilji?

OK, I'm about to arrange one step down. ESPN and others reported on a disturbing movement between the players and the NFL coach for the excuse that the league rules for gambling would be applied to the players? I think I'm a big fan of Denver Bronkos, but the new Captain Sean Paiton at the beginning read the league standards for sports and said that it was basically confused. 。 For example, what complicates things?

Pardam: This looks like a stuffed place where you can bet. In other words, athletes and players-NFL, exceptionally, are allowed to bet on legal operators, not NFL count.

That's good. Basketball, tennis, well, you understand how this is called -, that is, you are looking at all the types of other sports. < SPAN> In many cases, everything depends on the data.

NBA, baseball, tennis, basically anything, if it is not connected to NFL. Betting at work is forbidden. This also applies to those cases where you are traveling in a hotel, anywhere you are traveling. If you are traveling together, you are at work and you are not allowed to bet. And many ordinary companies are probably similar. Because they don't want, they sit, bet and gamble during work. And most children get into trouble. In fact, I don't know how to make a bet during the NFL game.
