Ilitchs Owning Tigers and Casinos
Ilitchs Owning Tigers and Casinos
Why isn't it a conflict of interest for Marion Ilitch to own professional sports teams and casinos?
Re: Ilitchs Owning Tigers and Casinos
Tigers and Wings are in the name of, and are under the control of, Chris Ilitch, her son. Owners of sports teams cannot be involved with casinos.

Being it’s in the same family, it should be.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Re: Ilitchs Owning Tigers and Casinos
This issue isn't exactly high on my list of concerns. Personally, I have little issue with it.
Let's not forget that Dan Gilbert used to own multiple casinos in Ohio while simultaneously owning the Cavs.
Would not surprise me if several other wealthy sports franchise owners across the country have partial ownership interests in casino or other gambling ventures.
Cripes - Fan Duel, Draft Kings and other sports gambling e-commerce businesses are high profile advertisers of major professional sports leagues at the league level these days.

Not sure why it matters anymore.
Aren't some local Universities teaming up with sports betting apps?

Re: Ilitchs Owning Tigers and Casinos
You know, I'm all for "do what you want so long as it isn't hurting anyone", but I'm so sick of those betting app commercials I could puke. I'm waiting to go to church one day and hear "Today's Gospel of the Word of Jesus Christ is brought to you by Fan Duel. Jesus sayeth unto Paul 'Maketh any bet that thy player shall taketh the field and thou shall win $150 in free bets'".MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Sat Apr 09, 2022 7:02 amThis issue isn't exactly high on my list of concerns.

You and I are in full agreement on that point.You know, I'm all for "do what you want so long as it isn't hurting anyone", but I'm so sick of those betting app commercials I could puke.

I think maybe they've put her on the bench.Robert Faygo wrote: ↑Sat Apr 09, 2022 8:50 amThe Make. It. Rain. spokesperson makes me miss the Belle Tire girl.
[EDIT] Nope. She's baaack, sporting a baseball cap and jersey. Don't think they're wanting to make.it.rain. on the old ball game though.
Bet Rivers has also benched "Courtney Perna," with the Bad Vegas Lounge Act and a new spokeslady in her place.
Now if "Tilman Fertida" and his drumline would just march themselves away.
You must also miss the AAMCO girl, too

Re: Ilitchs Owning Tigers and Casinos
I mean, I can see on 97.1. But it's every commercial break on just about every station. Steve Black hocks it on WRIF, along with just about every other jock. Wheels. CSX. Go to YouTube, stream an album or song, 15 second unskippable ad. Billboards. Everything. There is an entire station called THE BET fer Chrissakes. And then on 97.1, everytime Mike or Rico fart there's a bumper that says "Mike's flatulence from last night's taco dinner is presented by Bet Rivers", click the station, I hear "CAESAR IS DOIN IT FOR THE PEOPLE, PEOPLE!". I mean....fuck me with a coat hanger! And then the wagers are even worse! "Make a $5 bet that any player from either team takes the field and you win $200 in free bets". And then the 3 minutes of qualifiers. And it's been like this for two years now. Enough.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Sat Apr 09, 2022 9:02 amYou and I are in full agreement on that point.You know, I'm all for "do what you want so long as it isn't hurting anyone", but I'm so sick of those betting app commercials I could puke.

Re: Ilitchs Owning Tigers and Casinos
I can't imagine what it will be like with ads when sports betting officially comes to Ohio.
Re: Ilitchs Owning Tigers and Casinos
After being deluged with this ad's I get to wondering what type of demo are these aimed at.
