File an injuction about how damaging sports gambling would be to their sport on Friday. Play a game in a place where sports gambling is legal on Sunday. It's like the world's worst Kanye West song.

The NFL and all other sports should embrace gambling. Hell, they should want it legal and put a sports book in their stadiums. Or allow people to bet on NFL.com, MLB.com, and NBA.com. Why the hell not? They are about money. And this would be a new revenue stream for them.

And these fantasy football sites that are gambling sites are legal for some reason. I don't know why the NFL doesn't have one of those on their site.

I half want one of these sites to put together a fantasy "versus" game which has all the players from say Washington versus all the players from say Dallas... and you pick which one you think will win. Instead of the score being 24-21 it might be 168-130, but you could probably figure out points that would correlate closely enough.
