GypsyBandito says that Joe Brennan, Jr., the outspoken founder of the Interactive Media Entertainment & Gaming Association, is a complete and utter MENSCH.

Gambling911.com tends to agree.

So does Sparky Collins, Gambling911.com’s Cuban transgender reporter.

“Yeah his wife, she should be proud,” Sparky said of Brennan, Jr., whom he met at the Gambling911.com party earlier this year. “Caffeine, it does these things.”

Furthermore, he’s compared to a lobbyist for big tobacco:

If you work in PR, then you’ve probably seen Thank You For Smoking, and if you haven’t, you should. The main character is Nick Naylor, and he’s a lobbyist for big tobacco — an idea that I’ve flirted with.

Well, this is an interview with Joe Brennan, the Nick Naylor of online gambling. He’s the President and CEO of the Interactive Media Entertainment & Gaming Association (iMEGA), “an association dedicated to the continued growth and innovation of the Internet.” I met Joe at the NGG conference in Montreal a couple weeks ago. What a mensch.

“If you saw the movie "Thank You For Smoking" - about Nick Naylor, spokesman extraordinaire for the tobacco industry - you probably remember what a sharp, articulate, handsome guy he was,” Brennan Jr. spouted off to Gambling911.

Brennan’s organization is currently fighting the US Government in an Appeals Court looking to have the Unlawful Internet Gaming Enforcement Act challenged as “Unconstitutional”.

Joe Brennan, Jr. is interviewed by IGamingNews Great special effects! If you know sign language, keep the volume down.

“There is more twitching here than a turrets sufferer on crack,” Sparky laughed.

“You do not need to know English to watch this video either,” Sparky said. “He says ‘felt” and touches his heart with gayma ray hand gester, he says “process” and touches crotch, he says “rebut” and probably he point to some girl’s ass in room. I can be deaf, dumb, straight and right off the boat from Cuba and still get his message. That’s a mensch!”
