You may have missed it, but the NFL is back in the business of legislating its brand of morality, recently joining their colleagues in the MLB, NHL, NBA, and NCAA to file suit against the state of New Jersey’s plan to expand sports related gambling.

In spite of prohibitions currently in place to prevent the expansion of gambling in relation to college and professional sports, a cursory sportsbook review online shows anyone interested that sports related gambling is a big business, and for that reason, there is significant interest on the part of multiple states to open up new opportunities for people to pursue this particular vice.

The NFL, along with the rest of the plaintiffs in the suit, have long tried to prevent the spread of sports gambling, and have successfully fought off all attempts to expand in states that do not have a pre-existing exemption from the 1992 Federal law which restricts gambling to a specific list of locales, with Nevada being the most well-known.
