Chiefs vs Patriots...
Shallow:
I'm not a huge theorist. Just a skeptic. And it's not so much where there is smoke there is fire but where there is fire there is fire. Fifa gets legally caught and punished for match fixing.
With the NFL it's just smoke but the author of that book interviewed in the 80s was dead on. Dick Butkus confirmed it. It doesnt confirm the fixing still goes on but no one can read that book and not acknowledge that it had gone on to a degree.
And the back of the ticket states the ticket holder is only entitled to the enter the stadium and watch the event. Not entitled to fair competition. The NFL is also registered in the government as not a league of separate entities in competition with each other but as a single entity for the purpose of entertainment. It's basically to cover their ass legally. It's in essence saying we don't fix games but if we go you can't sue

No.. in essence they have to do that cause some low-life fan would throw stuff at refs and possible injure them, and claim that they weren't calling the game fair.

Refs? Its a fact its for legal reasons. It started after the 1919 World Series fix. To avoid further lawsuits the MLB switched its entity. The other leagues followed suit. A fan sued the league after spygate and the judge rejected the claim based entire on that reasoning.
Just research that book and the fallout from it and there is no way your left thinking the league wasn't dealing with fixed games and cover ups. Its not proof that it still goes on or that its orchestrated by the leagues and owners in long term planning but its real. I get the reluctance to accept it. Most people don't want to cheer for something they feel is real and then find out its not, or even accept the possibility it might not be.
And I'm not saying its all fake and set up, I'm saying when it looks too fishy it probably is.

You just hate Tom Brady because you love Peyton Manning, kinda like Nik hates LeBron because he's infatuated with Kobe.
