Arnie Wexler, a certified compulsive gambling counselor, was the executive director of the Council on Compulsive Gambling of New Jersey for eight years.
At NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell’s Super Bowl press conference, the commissioner smiled and laughed with host Tracy Wolfson as they marveled at this year’s host city. Las Vegas, Wolfson noted, “was taboo for so many decades with the NFL” because of its association with sports betting. I wonder if Goodell would have smiled if he had a family member who was a compulsive gambler.
For the Super Bowl, overseas sportsbooks are even offering bets on how often TV cameras will cut away to pop star Taylor Swift, or whether her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, will propose to her. So many young people in particular are getting addicted to gambling. Young men are by far the biggest share among sports bettors in the U.S. It’s easier today for a young person to place a bet than to buy a can of beer or a pack of smokes.
