I’m tired of driving to the Miss border to play FanDuel
It’s a Parish by parish vote. St Tammany will probably vote No as they did with video poker, but a Jeff Parish win will be just fine as well.
Vote Yes on HB484
IB4: degenerate and fantasy sports are for losers.

I'll be curious to see how many "freedom loving small government conservatives" are inclined to vote against this.

Gambling is morally wrong. I'm voting NO.

I think people tend to treat "gambling" as a false binary. It more properly exists in a continuum between pure chance and pure skill. Pure chance is a slot machine, a coin flip, etc. Pure skill is chess, GO, etc. The overwhelming majority of human competition falls between the two. Hell, even playing football can be construed as a "game of chance" if you stretch the definition far enough.
With that said, trying to establish an arbitrary line to outlaw games of chance is nanny state anti-freedom bullshite. Again, I look forward to the rank hypocrisy from so called "small government conservatives" on the subject.
And for full disclosure, while I play season long fantasy football with friends, I have never, and likely will never, play daily.

I’m voting yes. Frick the government.

Ok then. You are judgmental, hypocritical, and spiteful. None of these are good traits btw

How is this a parish by parish issue?
Posted on 10/20/18 at 11:14 am to Jake88
These "nerds" represent a vey small percentage of fantasy football players. Daily fantasy is no different than yearly fantasy, you just pick new players every week

Not at all. I just don't agree with your point of view. To say that you play yearly fantasy but have an issue with daily fantasy is absurd. What are these significant differences that you speak of?
