Re: new jersey sports gambling on the way?
Hope it goes!!! Canada has possibilities in sports as well. In this time of economic uncertainty if one jurisdiction could hit a home run and bring in a bunch of tax money there might be a different posture. Hell, I would give up booze, cigarets, lottery, hotel rooms, and gas. Yes, I will walk to work if gambling became more legal. (Ok, technically, I would just have to get out of bed and open my laptop) But, can online sportsbooks survive if they cannot fvck the players by walking with the post up funds anytime they want to. You know - like if it was illegal - to spend the post up money - and tell the players to just fvck off - that's too bad we don't have the money any more.

I definately think it is coming at some point. They need to stay ahead of PA and other states which added casinos.

I thought Bradley signed a bill never allowing New Jersey the ability to open sports books.
And didn't the Federal Government take away the possiblity for the States to allow sports Betting.

The Federal government will not allow it and they seem to have the power in this situation. Normally, a state can claim "state's rights" and do what they please. The Federal government, in this instance, can control the type of gambling which is permissible. Gov. Christie is a former prosecutor with loftier ambitions. In my opinion, he's not going to get drawn into a protracted battle here.

Re: new jersey sports gambling on the way?
He's got bigger fish to fry with the budgetary problems they have, and he can come off as seeking the moral high ground be saying that gambling must be kept limited. Just my guess, I don't think any U.S. government entity is smart enough to see the potential and wade through the landmines of dissent to get something so 'immoral' passed.

Re: new jersey sports gambling on the way?
I hope you're right, Top.12io4j2w90 It could have a domino effect among the other states looking for any way to fill budget gaps. We shall see. 40 years of observing how government works in this country leads me to believe otherwise.

Re: new jersey sports gambling on the way?
2 years ago the state of Delaware passed and the governor signed into law a bill allowing betting on sports (single games)... That lasted about a week when the NFL asked a 3 judge federal panel to review and strike down the law... THEY DID EXACTLY THAT...
Doesn't matter what Jersy does or the governor does...THE NFL is the law in the land along with MLB and NBA as sidekicks.

Re: new jersey sports gambling on the way?
TRENTON — The state Senate and Assembly have failed to override nine bills Gov. Chris Christie vetoed last month that would offer businesses financial incentives to encourage job growth.
Christie vetoed the legislation last month, saying the state could not afford an estimated $600 million in lost revenue from them. Democrats needed two-thirds of senators and assembly members to vote in favor of overturning the vetoes.
Both houses did, however, overwhelmingly pass two bills Christie vetoed but pared down and put in his budget proposal — one to restructure the corporate tax code so businesses only pay income taxes on sales and one to allow a 20-year “carry forward” on losses for small businesses. Democrats reintroduced them to closely match those proposed in the budget.
“Republicans have supported these bills. We like them. In fact, we were even the first ones to sponsor them over these many years. That is not what is an issue here,” said Senate Minority Leader Tom Kean Jr. (R-Union). “What is an issue is that there is no money to pay for these bills.”
The Senate bills all passed in January with bipartisan support, meaning Republicans had to switch their votes to no. Senate President Stephen Sweeney (D-Gloucester) said after the votes that Republican lawmakers have been afraid to show an independence from Christie.
“Republicans in the Legislature have no voice. There’s only one voice on the Republican side of the aisle in this state, and that’s the governor,” he said.

- Promoting partnerships between institutions of higher education institutions and businesses (S2398)
- Tax credits for businesses investing in certain emerging technologies (S2454)
- Low-interest loans to developers of "green" buildings (A2215)
- Establishing a "closing fund" to keep businesses in-state and attract new ones (A3353)
- Partial student loan forgiveness for workers in fields with a labor shortage (A2544)
- On-the-job training for unemployed residents with potential employers, allowing them to remain on the unemployment rolls (A3584
Re: new jersey sports gambling on the way?
The US Supreme Court has REFUSED to hear Delaware's case on allowing sports betting(single games) . So the 3 federal judge appelate's deciision's stands.
What possible shot do you even think NJ would have even if every citizen in the ENTIRE state wanted it?
When the Supreme Court refuses to hear a case brought by a STATE...duh. Cut out the lights ....

Re: new jersey sports gambling on the way?
Nice Fucking Democracy
This country is a complete lie in many, many ways.
OUR industry (gambling- sports betting, horse betting, poker) gets screwed everytime and nobody really gives a shit because OUR government only cares about helping the World Bank destroy each and everyone of us!
Pro Sports is HUGE business and the people that own these leagues have friends in very high places and will NEVER let sports gambling become an activity for the American people.. NEVER!
Money is OUR Dictator and the People that control that money are the Dictators and they do DICTATE!
If this was a true Democracy why do they not let the People decide?
We have the internet now. Each and every RULE, LAW, CODE could be voted on "BY the PEOPLE" "FOR the PEOPLE"?
Give us a TRUE Democracy...
The People in this Country would fuck that up too though 2348ji23e

Re: new jersey sports gambling on the way?
I would bet if this CORRUPT Government ever made poker a legal on-line activity they would also add that Harrahs (world series of poker) would be the only corporation allowed to offer it as they would say they own the rights to on-line poker for some reason.
That is after Harrahs PAYS OFF enough TRAITORS and gets a law passed. They will say that the Billions they are in debt could only be paid back if they and them alone was allowed to offer on-line poker.
And Harrahs in now Ceasers entertainment... Like gambling is entertainment 2348ji23e
