The NFL may need an extra $14 billion at some point in the next few years. Why not get more money from the game tree?
Sports business reporter Daniel Kaplan, in an item for AwfulAnnouncing.com, reports that the NFL has licensed its brands to Aristocrat Gaming for a mobile online slot game. Previously, the league licensed its brands to Aristocrat for land-based slot machines.
It’s just the latest step in the NFL’s ongoing pursuit of money when it comes to gambling. And when it comes to digital gambling, there is no chance that the house won’t win, over time.
That’s why the NFL sided with the house. That’s why the NFL allows its owners to own up to five percent of any home.
And that’s why the NFL will continue to make as much money as it can when it comes to gambling.
