I hope to god both of these sites get killed and forgotten soon. ESPN shills for them on basically every show I watch. They have specific segments for DraftKings fantasy advice now. It makes me long for the days when it was just that f***ing "he went from having holes in his underpants to having bikini models in them!" commercial..

I hear and see more commercials about Progressive and now, I hate that bitch.

"Some on-the-job research can pay big returns."
This was LITERALLY just said in a FanDuel commercial.

I just upgraded to commercial-free Hulu last night, just so I'd never have to see their ads again.

They are only legal due to a bizarre exception in gambling laws for them. I bet that loophole gets closed soon so play it now if you want to or don't because you will probably lose money.

there's a tidbit about the sites actively helping people in the five states where fantasy is banned deposit money to play.

The FanDuel and Draft Kings commercials have jumped way beyond the Progressive ones, never thought I would hate commercials more than the Flo ones.

So basically to be legal they'd have to get a license and start paying taxes?
