The Specter of Gambling will prevent that from ever occurring there.
Right. Because Atlantic City doesn't allow gambling. People are just completely out of control when they hear the words Las and Vegas together and name your professional sport league. If people want to gamble, they'll find a way.
Like I said, The League has to at least maintain appearances. The don't publish injury reports for the casual fans.
I just don't understand the hatred of Las Vegas. There is gambling across the country, it's just that Vegas is known for it. If the city can support the team, who cares? The guys who are going to attempt to fix any game are not located in Las Vegas. They are located across the country, and they target an individual, not an entire team. I think people who "care about a team being kept out of Las Vegas" would get over it quickly.
