Wisconsin lawmakers are taking a shot at expanding sports betting in the state. The state legislature gave final approval Tuesday to a measure that could allow tribes to offer online sports betting available to people anywhere in Wisconsin. The move comes just at the NCAA basketball tournaments get underway — one of the most popular betting times in the U.S. But the Wisconsin measure still needs the signature of Democratic Gov.

A turf war over a football team is developing between two Midwestern states with a long rivalry. Indiana has made a serious bid to lure the storied Chicago Bears across the border. The Bears want to leave Soldier Field, their home for 50 years. They previously proposed a $5 billion campus featuring a domed stadium in suburban Arlington Heights. But Indiana has a new law that would allow for financing and building a stadium in Hammond to lease to the Bears. Illinois lawmakers have responded with legislation that would give property and sales tax breaks to any so-called megaproject — such as a Bears stadium — of at least $100 million.
The blockbuster trade sending star pass rusher Maxx Crosby to the Baltimore Ravens is off. And the fallout from that reversal could have a ripple effect throughout the NFL as the new league year begins. The Ravens quickly pivoted to Trey Hendrickson, agreeing on a four-year, $112 million deal with the four-time Pro Bowl edge rusher on Wednesday morning, according to a person with knowledge of the deal. The Las Vegas Raiders said Tuesday night that Baltimore backed out of the trade that was supposed to send Crosby to the Ravens for two first-round draft picks. The deal was agreed to last Friday but couldn’t be finalized until Wednesday.
