NOW that all the pro leagues and colleges  are MAKING $ FROM THE GAMBLING
Gambling addiction has exploded I have been getting calls and e mails from young people and  mothers and fathers of young people looking for help.      
 
Arnie Wexler said " TODAY   It is easier to gamble on the games 
than it is to buy cigarettes or a can of beer on college
campuses all over the country"
 
Some years back , Arnie was on a TV show with Howard Cossell
(ABC Sports Beat). The topic was: Does the media encourage the
public to gamble? 
Bobby Knight,     Indiana University basketball coach
at the time, said: "A newspaper which published point spreads should
also publish names and addresses of services that render to prostitutes.
 
On the same show,
former baseball commissioner
Bowie Kuhn said:        "Anything that encourages gambling on team sports
bothers me. We all look hypocritical. But then why are we putting
up the odds unless we are trying to encourage it?"
 
David Stern,     NBA commissioner said: "We don't want the week's
grocery money to be bet on the outcome of a particular sporting event"
 
 
Today its ok as they all get a piece of the $ lost by gamblers  its blood $$
 
Arnie has spoken to students who gamble in college, day and night.
They even gamble during class, and it goes on in high school even in
the lunch rooms. 
 A LARGE  percent of young people have a gambling problem  
 Experts tell us that
the earlier a person starts to gamble, the greater the risk of them
becoming a compulsive gambler. In another survey, 96 percent of
adult male recovering gamblers stated that they started gambling
before the age of 14 .
 
Today When you open your local newspaper or watch T V
 you do see lines and point spreads on sporting events.
And betting info on t v and radio all day and night
