Commentary - Gambling, The New Normal

Gambling has been looking for a foothold to invade the world of professional and college sports for a very long time. You can go back to the Black Sox scandal in major league baseball way back in 1919 as an example. But now, gambling enjoys seats in the front row. It used to be available only in Vegas or shady store fronts. Now they advertise for your bets on our TV's and radio's. Gambling is a major sponsor for the games they hope people will bet on so they can make their profits from the losing bettors. The whole scenario prompted me to write this commentary back in 2023, and now you can hear it in this episode of the Brandy Show. Be sure to visit all past episodes of "The Brandy Show."
