But it's not like gambling where any Joe Shmoe can win


Legalities aside, I could go to my local sports book and bet on VT to win on Thursday and I'm not playing against someone to win money. If VT wins, I win. If not, I lose.

It's so much more about whether or not I ran computer models to optimize my team, and then from there have a program construct the best 200 teams to enter in on the week. And then, I still needed to have picked the one player that hardly anyone else picked that had a 3 TD day.

To your everyday person, that's about 6 hours worth of work, which no one has. It's not gambling, and that has actually ruined their product. It's too much about who has the best computer model, rather than actual gambling.
