I just e-mailed the radio station

1310 the Ticket in Dallas asking them to spend some time on the internet gambling bill. This is a 24 hour sports talk radio station and they have not uttered a word about this new bill.

Do they think none of their listeners ever bet on sports?

I'm actually quite surprised by the low amount of press coverage this new gambling bill is getting. Frist must feel like he could get away with murder right now.

Later,

Most BWE dont know the first thing about it. Including a ton of professionals in the related services catergory.

There's a profound ignorance to the entire sports betting industry in the mainstream sports media, particularly at the local level.

I'm a pretty big P1, and I've been astounded several times by how little those guys know about sports betting.

For some reason I always thought Norm was a degenerate, but he's said a couple of things to make me think he's pretty damn square (though connected). He'd never even heard of live betting until this month...given he doesn't use computers, but if he was serious about betting he would to get the lines.

Only other candidate on there is bob sturm...but I've only heard hints of that.

Overall, pretty disappointing, you can count me as one of those that would like the ticket to devote some time to these things. (and less to commercials)
