Yes. You don't leave billions of dollars up to a coin flip and you don't let the insane run the asylum.

Think about this, the Detroit Lions or the Green Bay Packers going to the SB? Which team does the NFL benefit more from? Green Bay easily, merchandise sales. It's the reason Detroit doesn't need to be good. Detroit makes money losing.

I don't watch much football anymore but I used to knowing it was rigged. It's like watching wrestling or a movie. Entertainment.


Every sport on TV is rigged to a certain degree. Tennis, golf, whatever. If you can wager on it, it's going to be fricked.

That's life. There is not a single thing on tv that isn't somewhat scripted.
