On episode 37 (download here on iTunes) of the Degen and Juice podcast, ESPN's David Purdum (@DavidPurdum) joins Collin (@_collin1) and I (@stuckey2) for the first 25 minutes to talk through all of the important angles of the Supreme Court sports betting legalization decision. A few of the topics we cover include:

  • What does this mean for bettors?
  • Does price really matter for all?
  • Why penny slots and MLS could be the big winners
  • The outlook from Vegas
  • The differing league views (NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, NCAA)
  • Impact of taxes and potential league cuts to vig
  • Offshore perspective
  • Impact to local bookies
  • Some state-by-state analysis
  • Doomsday scenarios (what could go wrong)

Collin and I also spend the last ten minutes talking through some NHL/NBA playoffs in addition to the ACC college football futures that we bet. One might really surprise you. Thank you for listening. Cheers.
