...that the fix is not in in the NFL. Too many times this year (like the 9 yard first down against New England) we've seen the completely unexplainable happen, and no one in the NFL media questions it. And now this obvious pass interference flag pick up that would have otherwise buried the Cowboys minutes later? Come on. I'm going to need a compelling argument that this league is not the 90's NBA now. You lost $$$$ too I see

I had no vested interest, except to watch honest football, decided on the field by athletes and coaches. That's not what we got.

No, I didn't. I had no vested interest, except to watch honest football, decided on the field by athletes and coaches. That's not what we got. To answer your question they could never even conceive to Rig it they would crum ble within a year losing billions of dollars. The money bet on The NFL is the lifeblood of the las vegas and numerous other around the world casinos not to mention offshore sportsbooks. It could never happen, Let alone the fans they lose. The money would have to outweigh the destruction of the whole fucking thing. It is an Impossibility

Didn't read the links above, but I dead read something a while ago that basically said it was almost a statistical impossibility of the teams that won the Super Bowls winning the super bowls the last like 15 years.
Of course, statistics can be skewed to suit whatever argument your trying to make.

Maybe the billions that they stand to lose were made in a certain way and everyone's in on it, including the media. After all, they get rich off it too, no? Maybe they know how much they have to lose, and that's why they react so badly when someone does something careless and almost gets them all caught (SpyGate). You even question it for a second during that Super Bowl Ravens blackout?

Next thing your gonna tell me is baseball players were on the roids in the 90s.
Seriously though... A conspiracy this size would require too many people in the know. It only takes 1 to snitch (see Canseco.)
That being said...to say there aren't some refs that are crooked? Well that's a different story.
Either way...a complete shit season for the NFL...on the field and off the field.

You even question it for a second during that Super Bowl Ravens blackout? No offense taken,You do see the athletes the coaches the owners would all have to know. They couldn't pull it off without everyone involved knowing. Are certain teams favored Yes of course, but with the instant replay the video they would all be in on it. Everyone. Trust me if that was the case we would have had a whistle blower by now.

Too big for everyone to be in on it. Loose lips sink ships, and that's a lot of lips to shut.
But like frosty said, crooked refs, paid off players here and there? Certainly not out of the question.
hell, with some of the baffling pay calling by the jets this season, you'd almost think some bookies were holding Morningwoods family hostage.

Not so sure... the federal government lies to the gullible masses all the time and gets away with it... why can't this other large group of people making money by the fistful?

It's one and the same but that's a topic for a forum off of this website... Cam vs Russell Wilson and the defending champs Romo and America's team vs Rodgers and Titletown, USA Luck the Future vs Forehead the Present Good ol' wholesome John Harbaugh, Flacco and the Ravens vs Brady, BB and the Patriot way (the greatest thing since sliced bread) Regardless of how we got here the league couldn't be smiling any harder right now...

This thread is a perfect example of why 9/11 Truthers still exist and post updates to their websites. Cognitive bias and human rationalization is one hell of a fucking drug. Hitman's already calling out fraudulent penalties in his head in a Pats game that won't happen for another week.
