ESPN Inks Major Gambling Pact With DraftKings
#Variety #News #DraftKings #ESPN #ESPNBet #PennEntertainment

https://variety.com/2025/digital/news/espn-bet-draftkings-deal-1236571246/

After a few days, looking over streaming services to see what might be a good fit for me, I have concluded there is no good fit.

I mostly follow hockey, college football, and soccer and need 3-4 different subscriptions to follow just one of those leagues, from start to end, no matter who I go with.

The NFL, NBA, golf, etc have no value to me and forcing me to contribute to Fox News because I want to watch a game is absurd if not an insult!

With a degree in sports marketing and a past in the sports industry in different roles & levels, I am embarrassed to admit that it took this to bring me back to my senses and remember:

A) I will be better off without these streaming services and get off the couch (Saving money & burning calories).

B) Televised sports have no real positive impact on my personal life. Yet, I’ve thrown more & more money at these companies, who are determined to provide less & less by nickel and diming to push the next app or subscription required for the “rest of the games,” not included in the advertised package, and, of course, blackouts, regardless of what you paid for.

C) Gambling is the fuel for sports revenue. Games/leagues are managed narratives to keep fans coming back for another fix of dopamine. So, why pay $1,000’s of dollars/year to pad the already insane profit margins of these media companies and “non-profit” leagues in the industry known as pro-sports?

Years ago, some “cut the cord” in response to the media companies insane prices. The same players now control streaming, fighting like children about who gets the to bleed people while calling each other “unreasonable” for the cost of doing so.

I know I [maybe we] can live without televised sports, but I doubt televised sports can live without me/us. It’s time to send a message and cut the stream as well.

In-game or live betting are now the dominant drivers of revenue growth for the sports gambling industry - now accounting for more than half the money wagered on FanDuel and DraftKings. But it’s not all rosy for the well known sport betting platforms who have seen their stock prices under pressure the past few months. https://www.thestreet.com/markets/gambling-apps-meet-their-match-as-cheaper-regulated-prediction-markets-foray-into-sports-cultural-events

Prediction markets are coming up fast on the outside with Polymarket and Kalshi rapidly gaining popularity. Robinhood has partnered with Kalshi to provide trading on pro and college football, other sports, politics, and economic events as alternative to traditional betting by treating trades as commodities rather than wagers – thus avoiding gambling laws. https://www.coindesk.com/business/2025/08/19/robinhood-partners-with-kalshi-to-launch-pro-and-college-football-prediction-markets #SportsBetting #Betting #Gambling #DraftKings #FanDual #PolyMarket #Kalshi #Robinhood #NFL #NCAAFootball #PredictionMarkets #Commodities #InGameBetting

It's September 1...Football season starts soon...and I've just renewed my #RotoQL membership so I can create lineups and hopefully win some cash on #Draftkings. Weird thing here in Minnesota is that sports betting online is illegal, but daily fantasy sports are not. When I lived up north, I'd often place my sports bets from a bar or restaurant in North Dakota as I was literally two minutes from the state line. LOL...Minnesota needs to get with the times and just legalize it. :-)
