Welcome back to THE Sports Law Podcast! We keep you up to date on everything at the intersection of sports and the law! In this episode, Daniel Wallach (@WALLACHLEGAL) is joined by guests, John Brennan (@BergenBrennan) and Zachary Bryson (@ZacharySBryson), who together take the reins to discuss breaking issues in the world of Sports Law, and the ever changing landscape of legal sports betting. James Dolan continues to be in the news, recently catching headlines for his use of Artificial Intelligence and facial recognition software to keep specific attorneys from being able to access Madison Square Garden. (3:02) These antics are continuing to pose more issues for Dolan, with his actions ironically resulting in more lawsuits and legal issues for the Garden. Just over one year ago, the State of New York began to allow mobile sports betting in the state, and operators have been in attendance at open hearings pleading for the state to lower their 51% tax rate levied against them. (15:26). While still early in the process, there are serious questions as what the legislature will decide, and what impact it will have on New York going forward. While online sports betting becomes more successful, questions around internet gambling are also called into question. New York State has set the wheels in motion to begin searching for the operators who will be awarded the state's last 3 land-based casino licenses. (34:42) Questions around the potential locations of these coveted licenses are numerous, and developments will be eagerly anticipated. This week in the Georgia General Assembly, a bill was introduced to legalize online sports betting in the state of Georgia. (46:02) This development comes after numerous failed attempts in the past, but may represent a shift in approach for other states poised to pass sports betting legislation. The bill has many hurdles, including the potentiality of a challenge being brought under the Georgia state constitution. *** Have a topic you want to write about?
