Governor Rendell of Pennsylvania wants video poker now.
Delaware is closer to allowing sports betting.
We're getting swallowed up. The response thus far is to ask for a slice, rather than ask for laws to be changed so we can compete on a national scale. In internet betting where we have a de facto monopoly, and creating a way to entice people to play that monopoly by making it 21st century relevant should be this sports main focus. Just like a slice or a subsidy, this chance will not last forever.

Lots of votes in this idea.
It is weird to me. Generally (this story was run on SC) people get happy when they read something new coming to gambling, because they think we'll get some. Sports betting, whatever. I am the exact opposite - it is worrisome. Every time something new is offered I think we are one step closer to both not getting any of it, and having handles and revenues fall even more.
