If YOU want to gamble,as a consenting adult, YOU'LL make your choice and go and find the avenue that fills YOUR want/need. If YOU want to do it , YOU go for it. It doesnt bother ME what choices YOU make.
However, it is simply not right for a pubicly aired TV channel, or a condoning "Socially Responsible Sporting Organization" to shove this stuff down my 7 yr old and 13yr old's throat, let alone mine!
At least we get to have the family discussion about the pros and cons of gambling, I guess. Thats the only good point about it all.
The AFL's support of all this is quite farcical when they seem to jump at the chance to 'fly the flag' for just about all other social ills where-ever they can, with their appetite for theme rounds. How about a "Gambling Free" theme round.??
Now I'd like to see that! ..... But I won't....!
