sports games are not the only kind of games that servers as content of gambling. When you said "sports is paid  to provide said content" Do you mean sports is dependent on gambling for it to continue existing?  Make reference to the thread of yesterday that was asking about the source of income for football Leagues, you will learn that sports are independent to gambling. There are other companies sponsorship apart from bookies and casinos. If there was nothing like sports activities in the first place, betting will still continues but will be based on other activities of the world, just as polymarket are providing betting options for different kinds of world events. If there was also no form gambling activity sports would have still exited perfectly without it.

To add: there are so many varieties of casinos and slot games, all contributing to the heavy population of gamblers and there are even some gamblers that are not sports bettors.

How many times do I have to tell this?

Sports are bigger than gambling, it can survive without gambling, too. Literally, every kind of product is advertised in sports not just gambling and to me it is just a portion of it.

And people can be true fanatics of a particular sport and they have to never bet on it.

I can sense alot of novice content in this and for sure you just trying to post something related to gambling for sake of signature campaign, between I advice that you take you time to read more and write less, although from this kind of thread you may learn in or two since i can sense that you alot to learn om both sport game and gambling seems you are confused about thia terms.

Sport event like football is very popular and millions of fans around the world enjoy the game and some with knowledge will go as far as betting on some of those games.

I disagree.  Sure, sports give us the games, but those games were around way before betting ads were all over TV.   Saying you cant have one without the other just means you bought into what the betting companies want you to think.  They want you to think you need to bet to enjoy the game. Thats not true.

Gambling needs sports, but sports definitely doesnt need gambling.  Sports just take the money because its there, and that greed risks the whole thing.  The day people stop caring about the game itself and only care about their bets is the day the true sport dies.

Thats actually a realistic point of view.  Sports and gambling really do feed off each other. The excitement of the game fuels the bets, and the bets make the games even more thrilling. It’s a cycle that’s hard to break, and trying to completely separate the two feels almost impossible at this point. On the other note, Prediction market also has a good narrative and it can apply to details pertaining to sports events.

[Josefjix]

Many enjoys sports but few enjoys gambling, not all sports lovers are gamblers but all gamblers are sport lovers because you can't predict and never spectate on the clubs, invariably, you loving sports.

Gambling coming into sports is definitely based on business, while sport on it own can survive without gambling,

While it seems like the both surviving together is because almost every clubs are sponsored by gambling companies, but NO, gambling companies needs sports than sports needs gambling.

[Ryu_Ar1]

Actually I don't really agree when emphasizing that sports are paid to smooth gambling because in the end sports are still sports, it cannot be used as an excuse to make it seem as if they are there because it is for gambling.

But I do agree that sports and gambling are closely linked but their relationship is more of a symbiotic mutualism where both will benefit in different ways.
Gambling will benefit because they will have a subject to bet on, on the other hand sports will also be the same because there is no way a gambler who is in sportsbetting they don't see and recognize what they are betting on so there will definitely be a lot of exposure received because gamblers will continue to monitor and see traffic for them to make references in the bets they have.

I don’t think I would say that these two things go hand in hand as there are certainly plenty of athletes who have no interest in gambling whatsoever. However, they do appear to be a good match as betting on sporting events is a multi-billion dollar industry. I also think they can enhance each other if you enjoy both.

[Asiska02]

Gambling may be dependent on sport to exist but sports is never dependent on gambling because they’re not a revenue generator for them and can stand independently without them including their sporting activities in their platforms. Gambling games also differ from sports activities only, even if that won’t generate them as much funds as they want, they still hold sporting activities with high esteem because that brought about more increment of customers participation in their platforms through coming to playing sporting games on their platforms more often than any other type of games they have for customers to play in.

sports is like fuel to gambling

I wouldn’t really say sports is what fuels gambling, maybe yes, its a huge percentage or even the majority, but definitely not the full picture. Gambling at its core is simply competition with cash or some kind of reward attached, usually money, so sports just happen to fit perfectly into that idea because it’s already competitive by nature, not because its the only form of competition that attracts gamblers. When you think about it people gamble on almost anything, from casino games to online slots, political outcomes, even random events like coin flips or eSports matches, so while sports betting is definitely a major branch of the gambling tree, it’s not the root of it, there has always been gambling long before organized sports became what they are today.

It's wrong to generalise this because there are sports fans that are not gamblers and there are gamblers that are not sport fans. Not everyone that enjoys sports loves to gamble, they just prefer to watch their favorite games so I think really think sports fuels gambling because it doesn't affect everyone. When we talk about this I think preference has a lot to do with it, everyone can't find the same thing to be interesting

[Ivystar5]

This two things as so linked that even a slight change in one affects the other, and of course your observation is very much correct, and it's one of the reason why governments which have banned gambling in their country so how find away to restore it because it keeps the sport of their country and reduce the countries presence in sporting activities which are one of the communal activities conducted internationally to celebrate unity. So not even gambling can do without sport.

It's always tie with each other, so if there is a sport that happening then expect that there are bettors are all around them trying to hit numbers that they bet for. It sure is a hand to hand and everyone is benefiting from the sports industry even a content creator who's not a gambler can make contents out of it and just simple reporting could make him some money out of it or even a livelihood.

that’s true, sports & gambling really do feed off each other, it’s a cycle that’s been going on for ages. You can’t deny how betting adds more excitement for a lot of fans & at the same time the money from gambling keeps sports events growing bigger but I also think there’s a fine line some people can enjoy sports w/o touching gambling at all while others easily get hooked once they start betting maybe the key isn’t to totally separate them but to keep things responsible so fans don’t end up losing the fun side of sports.

This has recently been discussed here and after whatever reasons we may give in this discussion, the truth is that most of us will be very lazy to do the research and just believe you have said is a lie without much argument. Gambling we know is an external gaming events that features the sport activities.
But even if or whatever be the case, gambling is really and the sports are real and I am enjoying them in the interception gambling system. I don't think we can decide to hate the sport or gambling for that if it was true.

I think it can be said either way.  Gambling can exist without sports and sports can exist without gambling.  Smart people integrate the two to have a synergize effect which boost both gambling industry and sports industry because gambler who are not into sports get hooked on sports to be updated because of sports betting.  While sportspeople who want to make a profit over their favorite team can engage in sports betting.  

That said, these two can exist independently, and yes, they can go hand in hand.

[Mindyspace]

Yes, I totally agree with you. What you said makes a lot of sense! But it's rare to see the money from bets actually reaching the athletes, and I think that's very wrong. A betting company, for example, could sponsor athletes in Olympic sports and give them more visibility on its platform. That way, the casino would profit from the bets, and the sponsored athlete would also benefit. Everyone would win. But, unfortunately, this still doesn't happen very often.

Well, considering the main sponsors from soccer leagues and championships are betting houses nowadays, you can consider the wage players are being paid comes from gambling companies. I think in Olympic games we don't see it happening too often, because it happens only once every 4 years, but it's very likely gambling companies are going to approach next editions of Olympics as well.

Yes of a Truth gambling is for fun,and the root of gambling is true sports and gambling can't exist without sports so if government is trying to eradicate gambling they should first stop sports because as you said the mission can't be successful because sports and gambling is 5and 6
