XFL uses new technology to bring the betting closer to sports

The XFL will be venturing in uncharted waters with its decision to discuss betting lines and gambling during their broadcasts. This comes at a time where we’ve seen technology quickly change the gambling world for both the players and the bookmakers. With the 24-hour sports news cycle and the breaking of news on social media, the days of bookmakers getting the news first from their “sources” is all but over. News continues to travel faster than ever and we are now starting to see that bettors and the bookmakers are getting the news at the same time.

Now, it becomes a race to see who can act first.
