This mornings paper had an interview with a long time sports betting
executive. Basically, he said the "good old times" don't come close
to the situation today. The "good old times" are right now. He said
years ago they offered far fewer choices ... even as little as one
game on Saturday, one on Sunday, and poor coverage on everything else
(that must have been years ago). And a ticket for 10 games paid 100
to 1 ... today its 600-800 to 1.
