Why do you think the NBA and the NFL care about their players off the field activities? Because it reflects badly on the game. Poker exploded because of TV and stars were created.

Now we are in position where we are trying to get something like a carve out for poker from the online gaming bill and should we have someone like Mike Matasow as a spokesman?
