Professional wrestling is scripted. Not illegal. Your point? Watch the movie Quiz Show. Listen to the last line.

There was a play where latimore literally dove the wrong direction and allowed Cooper to gain 15 extra yards up the sideline. He is either inept or took a dive in purpose

Wouldn't it have made more sense to rig it for the Giants or Jets

Why are the Giants in the crapper? Why do the Bears suck so frequently? Why has Dallas not done much of anything the last 15+ years?

This is so stupid. So your telling me that football players and coaches are secretly told when to win and lose. Which means that 1000s of player/coaches/refs/execs over the years have all kept this information top secret. You sure you dont believe in Santa?

Remember the first Atlanta game last year? Atlanta’s win keep them relevant.

In Mexico they believe football is fake and wrestling is real.

Thank you for your honesty and truth. NFL has been scripted for a long time. NFL attendance is low and the brand has suffered because of various causes and incidents. Saints and Cowboys game was a setup from the start. Hate to say it but Saint fans should have seen this coming a long way off.

Not saying it's scripted, however, the NFL is listed in their tax filings as an "entertainment entity." (not sure of the official verbiage) Point is, it wouldn't be fraud.
That's the same listing as the WWE for what it's worth.

The officials sway games in a certain direction with all the subjective calls and non calls. It happens in all sports where money is on the line. They know a missed call here, a bad call there, will line their own pockets.
The coaches could easily swap playbooks before the game to see offensive /defensive schemes. They script the first 15 - 20 plays. Nothing on tv is 100% real. I don't care if it's scripted. I like watching football.

I initially thought it looked ridiculous at full speed, but after watching the replay a couple of times in slow-mo, it looked old more like the DB getting faked out of his jock.

Really? Nawww.
To many, 9/11 was a national tragedy, not just a NY one. You know, especially to those who died in DC and PA. Point being, the Patriot is the most pro-USA of all mascots. BTW, American 11 took off from Boston.
It was just my opinion, no need for people who don’t agree to get bent about it.

I argue this point all of the time. One question. Why hasn't someone written a tell all book or gone on a tour for money? In this age of money, someone would have come out by now!

When an NFL player retires he gets a pension. Where is all these millions of dollars coming from if he rats them out? Tim Donaghy did not make millions and he has a book. What happened? Labeled a liar, a kook etc. No money just slander. There is no point in coming out about it if it happens and it 100% does. Humans are greedy.
