The headwinds against legalized sports betting
In the 16 months since the U.S. Supreme Court cleared the way for states to legalize sports betting, the country’s wealthiest sports league, the NFL, has slowly moved to put its football games and its players into the middle of the online gambling industry. The league has partnered with casino giant Caesars Entertainment as well as sports data distributor Sportradar. Last Thursday, it signed a deal with the largest fantasy sports operator, DraftKings, which already has betting operations in four states.
And when the NFL’s current broadcast rights deals expire in 2022, it will likely make sports betting a key part of negotiations for new contracts. By 2024, the U.S. sports wagering market may grow to $5.7 billion in annual revenue, according to the research company GamblingCompliance. The NFL, like other professional sports leagues, has found it hard to pass up this new source of wealth.
Yet something in the U.S. is slowing down this rush toward online sports gambling, especially in Western and Southern states. Only about a dozen states have some form of legal sports betting, often with tight restrictions.

合法体育博彩,逆风而行
自美国最高法院为各州体育博彩合法化扫清道路以来的16个月里,美国最富有的体育联盟NFL慢慢采取行动,将其(美式)足球比赛及其球员纳入了在线赌博行业的中间。联盟与赌场巨头凯撒娱乐公司以及体育数据发行商Sportradar合作。上周四,它与最大的梦幻体育运营商DraftKings签署了一项协议,该公司已经在四个州开展博彩业务。
并且,当NFL当前的转播权交易于2022年到期时,体育博彩可能会成为新合同谈判的关键部分。根据研究公司GamblingCompliance的数据,到2024年,美国体育博彩市场的年收入可能增长到57亿美元。与其他职业体育联赛一样,NFL也发现很难放弃这种新的财富来源。
然而,美国的某些情况正在减缓这种向在线体育博彩的狂潮,尤其是在西部和南部各州。只有大约十二个州拥有某种形式的合法体育博彩,通常受到严格的限制。
