Yes, the commercials, plus all the betting talk during the pregame shows, plus all the betting info being shown as part of the sports ticker, plus all the digital betting ads during the game play, etc. I used to have to look up the betting line in the back of the sports section if I was curious. Now it's as common info as the team's place in the standings.

As a non-gamble, it's annoying as hell and does not encourage me to watch any of the non-essential parts of sports programming, like pregame shows. Seems like they solely focus on betting and any info offered is to influence betting.
