00:00we definitely knew at this time last year sam that missouri was headed toward legalizing sports

00:04betting and that happened in quarter four at the end of last year uh saw some reports about

00:09mississippi and wisconsin maybe going online i guess i'm sort of asking at this point more about

00:15wisconsin than mississippi because sam quite frankly i've been hearing about mississippi

00:18going online for like six years and then nothing ever happens they do have the retail shops there

00:32the same story the tribal casinos or the uh the commercial casinos the retail casinos um floating

00:38the idea and then kind of backing off but with wisconsin the uh the problem has rested largely

00:44on getting the tribes um who have a lot of power there to agree to the a framework that the commercial

00:50operators would want as well um you know i don't i wouldn't hold my breath on wisconsin's kind of

00:56start of the year you hear some bubblings you never really know where it's going to end up um if we

01:00could see some real momentum in wisconsin if we see it in any state this year uh but again it's

01:05another complicated tribal situation and we'd have to kind of see how everything plays out

01:10throughout the legislature the priorities of the year as well and then obviously you have a lot of

01:15other issues that are big on wisconsin's docket right now as well i don't know if legalizing sports
