[{"type":"text","content":"LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / April 5, 2021 / Winners, Inc. (OTC PINK:WNRS) subsidiary VegasWINNERS Inc., which provides sports betting enthusiasts with high quality analysis, research, data, guidance and professional advice, CEO Wayne Allyn Root, weighs in on the new $100+ billion NFL television contract and expanded NFL season announced in recent days."Root says, "Our business is built around sports gambling. After 35 years as the man the media dubbed, "the King of Las Vegas Sports Gambling" I understand the most important rule in this industry: Sports gambling is built around NFL football and televised football games.

Teams have sports gambling sponsorships, the NFL has a team in Las Vegas (the Raiders), and the NFL recently announced they are awarding the 2022 Pro Bowl to Las Vegas, the sports gambling center of the world. This new $100+ billion TV deal could only have been achieved with the massive popularity and expansion of legalized sports betting across the USA and the unprecedented success of online sports betting during the Pandemic. For our Company VegasWINNERS, this is all about the availability of product (pro football games on TV in plentiful numbers)."Root added, "Even better news for us was the announcement that the NFL is expanding from a 16-game schedule to a 17-game schedule, effective immediately with this 2021 season. That adds a valuable week of peak revenues for our business and extends the length of the se...
