You might have observed that year-end retrospectives are widely embraced by publications during this season. At Playinmichigan, we have also joined in by presenting our take on summarizing 2020 in these articles: here, here, here, and here.

To be frank, the subjects we primarily discuss (the state’s unsuccessful online gambling launch, frequently shuttered casinos, and underperforming Michigan sports teams) tend to create a dull and unenergetic atmosphere.

Join us in the spin zone as we attempt to shed maximum light on our observations from 2020.

Perhaps the positive energy can contribute to achieving improved outcomes for a successful 2021.

Tired: Michigan online gambling launch delays irritated residents.

Wired: At least you didn’t lose money each week on the Lions.

Most locals tend to place significant bets on the home team. PlayIllinois, our sister site, explores the reasons behind the impressive revenue sportsbooks achieved in October, surpassing previous months.

There is no denying the fact that the slight decline of the Chicago Bears greatly benefitted sports bettors in Illinois during that month.

Regarding the Detroit Lions this year, their record of 6-9 against the spread (5-10 overall) might prove advantageous for Michigan books rather than bettors.

It is possible that Michigan sports bettors, who are deeply affected by their loyalty towards the Lions, may choose to place more bets against their home team compared to the average fanbase.

Watching that subplot could be quite intriguing.

Tired: Online gambling launch missed all of football’s regular season.

Wired: More operators at the start line!

It is possible that only a few operators would have been prepared if Michigan had commenced in the latter part of last year.

Many platforms are anticipated to go live simultaneously due to the delays, ensuring a fair competition.

As the much-awaited mid-January launch in Michigan approaches, online gambling customers are already starting to receive sign-up bonuses, promotions, and odds boosts.

Additionally, much like during election season, media companies and sports teams are profiting from the general advertising purchases associated with the launch. It is always satisfying to support the employment of journalists!

Michigan’s clean starting line is highly regarded by the entire industry.

At present, it will provide an insightful overview of the current market share of the online gambling industry.

Online casinos and online poker can be seen as the icing on the cake when compared to sports betting. Although we had to wait for a year to engage in real money online slots in the mitten, it gives us hope that by mid-January, we will have access to a plethora of exciting online gambling options.

Tired: Holy hell, Detroit sports teams are pathetic.

Wired: High draft picks!

The four major Detroit professional franchises have experienced a period of significant failure during this era.

  • Last season, the Red Wings had the worst record in the NHL. Detroit is listed separately by FanDuel (+20000) and DraftKings (+35000) with the longest odds for winning the Stanley Cup.
  • The Pistons have a disappointing record of 0-4 and according to FiveThirtyEight.com, they are projected to be the NBA’s worst team this season, trailing behind by six games. How unfortunate.
  • In two out of the past four seasons, the Tigers have held the unfortunate title of being the worst team in the MLB.
  • The Lions remain as the Lions.

However, all the poor performance leads to the opportunity for franchises to acquire high draft picks, which in turn provides them with the potential to secure top-tier talent for the future.

The hardships faced in 2020 and the anticipated challenges of 2021 are softened by the hopeful prospects of players like Owen Power, Cade Cunningham, Kumar Rocker, and Trey Lance potentially joining the team this year.

Do you see? It’s actually not that terrible. Remember to always focus on the positive aspects of life. Wishing you a joyful New Year!
