When legal sports betting launched in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, Bill was in Atlantic City and the City of Brotherly Love covering the ribbon-cutting ceremonies and ceremonial first bets that never cashed. His extensive iGaming coverage has included exclusive interviews with BetMGM, Hard Rock and DraftKings executives. Bill’s gaming industry coverage and analysis has appeared on regional and national websites, including Covers, Mass Live, Legal Sports Report, TheLines, Deadspin, PlayNJ, and several others.
However, if you were to ask Bill what his biggest career highlight has been, without hesitation, he will tell you covering the 2018 Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl Parade. The diehard Birds fan only had to wait for what felt like a lifetime for it to finally happen.
