Recently the NFL started allowing gambling operators as sponsors in the league. It all started around three years ago when it was first rumored that Oakland Raiders would be moving from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. With the move of an NFL franchise to Sin City, people started speculating that the league would loosen up on their longstanding commitment to keeping gambling out of the game of football. Earlier this year, with the renaming of Oakland Raiders to Las Vegas Raiders, it was also announced that Caesars Palace would be the main sponsor of the newly renamed franchise.
