Carton is also co-host of Fox Sports’ “Breakfast Ball” and is open to his gambling addiction. He said it was seven years since he was gambling and five years at Fanduel, and their information helped many people.
He told Fox News Digital before Sunday’s Super Bowl in New Orleans: “I’ve been connecting with me now and hearing about my partnership with Fanduel and hearing about my establishment with Fanduel partnership.”
“Because unfortunately, unfortunately, there is a small number of people who need to be gambling responsibly. “Hey, that’s what it looks like, if someone in my life gambling, that’s the warning sign. ”
“I’m lucky that we’re in fifth grade now, I’m with Fanduel and I’m seeing messaging at work, people are signing up for the tools Fanduel offers, and it makes a lot of sense.”

Katon said the partnership not only helps people who may be struggling with controlled gambling, but also helps him when he hears stories about people open up.
“For a lot of people, (the gambler anonymous) is the only answer,” he said. “I went to Georgia, which is great for most people. For me, with years of versus with New friends I never talk to talk about problem gambling and how to overcome it is absolutely therapeutic.
“When I make a comeback we will premiere on Fanduel, or ‘Hello, my name is Craig’ in Audacy and Wfan New York Citythat’s my ga. You will hear other people’s stories and share my stories.
“It’s a great reminder for me, even though I haven’t gambled for nearly seven years, so it’s very smart. It’s very healthy for me to hear stories about other people’s recovery, the worst life moments they’re willing to speak, they’re very healthy for me Hearing.”

Carton preaches responsible game because it becomes so standardized nationwide. This means that the next generation will grow in that world.
“This is the biggest target group we are worried about because 21-year-olds are kids,” he said. “They are still immature and don’t really get the full value of a dollar. Today in North Carolina.
“Huge college basketball, college football status. So if you’re a college student, that makes sense. Now legally allow our most worried kids.
“My kids, the next generation of gamblers, or just someone who loves sports, talking about gambling will now be a dining table conversation.”
Cartons aren’t saying that table conversation is a bad thing. He feels that because sports gambling has normalized, talking to friends and family about your problems, or talking to someone you love, they show signs of problem gambling and will not be stigmatized.

“A big part of it is that if it has been normalized, if it has been mainstreamed, it is much easier to ask for help. Because when I went through it, it is not. It’s a lot of shame related to being an addict, ” he said. “No one wants to admit they are addicts. Your self-start, ‘twist you, I’m fine!’
“If you have a friend you are worried about, talk to them. That’s first. You are the first line of defense. Before your family, friends know that their partner is not themselves. They don’t have any action usually, if you’re gambling, It’s hard to win.
“So, do that, responsibly, point the amount of responsible to the movie or Broadway show. If you win. Think the answer is, “Okay, let me bet from it.” “That’s when you start to get into trouble.”
