    I, for one, really get frustrated trying to watch my betting program and they keep interrupting it to show people chasing a puck around the ice. I’m glad something is finally being done about all this sport nonsense.

    Edit: Think of the children! How are we supposed to teach our children proper betting techniques and knowledge if this madness doesn’t stop?

    Watching a hockey game is like 1 hr of sports… and 2.75 hrs of sports betting ads.

    Fucking ridiculous and predatory for those with gambling addictions.

    I watched Hockey Night in Canada for the first time in almost 12 years a few weeks ago and I was appalled. I counted at least three different betting apps being advertised, and a lot of the analysis was also tied to betting odds. It left a really sour taste in my mouth, completely irrespective of the actual game.
