I agree, but to be fair, the NFL has long known that a huge driver of its popularity is gambling related.

This is true, but major leagues have a hostile relationship with sportsbooks in Nevada since the latter keep all the vig, rather than share it with the respective leagues.

It appears the DFS executives are paying the right people, whether in broadcasting, sports leagues and/or lawmakers.

You're right, the leagues aren't huge fans of sportsbooks, but that's only the official gambling that is going on. There's at least twice as much happening offshore and unofficially.
