It adds such a negative vibe to sports too. It's all gambling advertising now.

At least if the sponsor is a truck company, they're selling me a truck for money. Maybe I don't need a truck, but I give them money and I get a truck that I might get utility out of.

Gambling is purely to separate chumps from their money, as much as possible, and then we as a society have to deal with that shit.

Some sports star selling me shoes, whatever. Gambling? It's more like "hey dumb asses..."
