Thing is, us sportsbettors were cooked before with the Wire Act, so this didn't really change the legal landscape for us.

This is the point i was making when i said that the UIGEA targets poker not sportsbetting.

Sportsbetting was already cooked, to use Free's term, thanks to the Wire Act. UIGEA really doesn't do much additionally from the perspective of the operator of a sportsbook.
