ESPN’s popular “Outside the Lines” will feature an expose on Fantasy Football betting this coming Sunday August 17, 2014, Gambling911.com’s Thomas Somach can report exclusively. Airing will occur at 9 am EST on ESPN.

Fantasy Football and other Fantasy Sports with a real money feature are considered legal under current US law and the betting element is certainly catching on, not to mention it is helping to drive wager-savvy folks to online gambling websites the likes of Bookmaker, probably not the intention.

Fantasy Football is considered a “game of skill” under current law and this will likely be discussed during the program. 

“Outside the Lines” examines critical issues in most American sports both on and off the field.
