Apparently a way to get around state sports betting laws?? https://casinobeats.com/2025/10/21/fanduel-cme-group-sports-prediction-markets/ For the record, anyone who wants to participate in these so called "prediction market" realize there is zero market regulation and consumer protection built into these. Unlike say a real futures market, or sports betting, there is no clear legal regulatory entity which oversees these items, and it is pretty much the wild west, complete with unfettered market manipulation that cannot currently be stopped.

hogan873 Posted Thursday at 04:34 PM Share Posted Thursday at 04:34 PM If there was a list of 100 problems the Sox have, this would be about #102. A lot of teams have sponsorship patches now, and probably most, if not all, will soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't hate on JR for this .Every team does it. No idea where that money ends up but its not like hes doing something that all the other owners arent doing. Also who's to say this cant be a great thing moving foward. The company has DEEP pockets and the CEO is a Chicagoan from the Southside . Maybe it's an Ishbia thing or he's going to be interested in helping build a new stadium. Most of you guys need to start thinking big picture possibilities when a company like that becomes involved with the Sox, the better the future outlook of the team becomes. Not a single thing to dislike about this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
