I get a ton of traffic on my sports site with many gambling companies wanting to advertise on there. I only worry that accepting gambling links will hurt my SEO. Have any of you guys ever CONFIRMED this?

    That's silly. Gambling links will not hurt your rankings.

    Whether or not it is legal to promote gambling sites where you live is a different story.

    If you are talking about placing paid advertising links on your site to the gambling sites, those links should be nofollowed; therefore, even if they could hurt you, they wouldn't.
