[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 780949"] In researching the above, I found this unrelated factoid of at least casual interest to some Packer shareholders: "The fine print on the Packers' [2011] stock sale website says, too, that [B]NFL rules prohibit shareholders from betting on any NFL game; violators could face up to $5,000 in fines." [/B] [URL]https://blogs.wsj.com/totalreturn/2012/01/13/are-the-green-bay-packers-the-worst-stock-in-america/[/URL] Of course if you gambled on games at a Nevada sports book or some off-shore entity, you were already in violation of NFL rules, not that there's any indication of enforcement or even how they would go about it. However, with the recent Supreme Court decision New Jersey is now open for business with other states soon to follow increasing the opportunities to violate the rule. Since Jerry and Bob have ownership interest in on-line fantasy betting, it looks like you're in the clear on that score since you're betting on players not "games", which of course must not be hypocrisy by loophole. :whistling: [/QUOTE]
