Is everyone else getting spammed by the sports betting ads to "help education," too?

11. Oh - that's what I had in the back of my mind - that compact with the Seminoles!

That's what made sports betting legal at the casinos - but it's still illegal anywhere else. These ads are pushing to make it legal all over the state - I wonder how hard the Seminoles will fight it?

What bother me about these sport betting ads is that they are using the same arguments that were used to set up the lottery system - that it will provide more money for education. Of course, that was not true. The money goes into the state coffers and sent where the legislature wants - which seems to be to private schools and other boondoggles.
