We're down to the final day folks! Call your Senator, yell at them politely to do their job. Let's get this passed! I want to be able to waste my life savings betting the under on how many games the Reds will lose without having to worry about the government interfering in that.

Gambling is a sin. It's in the Bible. "Let he who is without sin roll the first bones."
Nice. Can’t wait to bet on CFB and NFL games. Driving two hours to Indiana or Tennessee (I’m in the middle of the state) to bet on ball games seemed a little excessive. Now, we don’t have to.
Can we get table games legalized now so we can have real casinos?
The act goes into effect 90 days after sine die, which is July 28. From there, KHC has six months under the bill to “promulgate administrative regulations to establish a fully functioning sports wagering system.” That means the system could be established any time between the end of summer and Dec. 28.

You also need to change the KY constitution to allow for Class III slot machines instead of these Historical Horse Racing Class II machines they have in Kentucky. I'd rather have my fate decided by a random number generator in the machine than a random horse racing result in a server somewhere.
Stupid question I am sure, but I know nothing about this stuff.
At what point could we bet on apps? I don’t even know what the gambling apps/websites are but I know they exist (rephrase: I think I know).

In Indiana I can use DraftKings, Caesar’s, and Fan Duel. There is also an off track betting place just around the block that has a sports book
Is there any reason one would go to a brick and mortar sports book over using the app?
I didn't realize so many of you suckers were wanting to give your money away or I would have set up a go fund me. We could have easily raised the money to buy out Cal.
Anyone hear that caller on ksr today talking about how 5 out of 8 books have him blocked b/c he gets better odds than Vegas wants him too - he was kind of incoherent explaining it.
First of all, it is not for the government to prevent people from sinning.
Secondly, gluttony is a sin. Lust is a sin, not just acting on it, but even just looking at another woman (than your wife) lustfully. Wanting that sports car or house your neighbor has.
So just like religion does/should not want the government interfering in how they act (as long as not hurting anyone), religion should not determine our laws either (and yes, I am a Christian).
