Seriously, with judges like those at the district and appellate court level, no wonder why no one respects the legal profession.

Not only is it illogical in every way, it violates the 10th Amendment from the get-go. Which is proven by the fact that they allowed anyone to have it, or keep it --- and then make it unequal (only Vegas with single game betting, lol), then this, then that, it's a total joke.
I agree with you but Christie wanted to be politically correct in his assessment of the possibility the Court ruled against NJ.
Here is a quote from Dennis Drazin who by the way has lead a never ending fight for the legalization of sports wagering in NJ.

“I would anticipate that Monmouth Park would be up and running within two weeks and while I can’t speak for casinos or other tracks, I am sure everyone is going to try and move forward expeditiously,” Drazin said. “If the Supreme Court rules PASPA is unconstitutional, we would most likely have the option on the short-term basis of opening under the old law.”
