But in the no publcity is bad publicity dept, DFS had its biggest week ever last week.

No. These folk are misrepresenting themselves as not being gambling, when they are. And then the NCAA wants to pretend it's all about athletes and scholarships when its really about money coming in while not paying the players, but they make money off the players. And if its not gambling, why can't they air during the big games? Why is the NCAA OK taking their ad money in regular season, but not after?
Reminds me of jokes about ladies of the evening and money. Already known they're a prostitute, just a matter of price.
