You asked and answered your own question. Again, I do NOT believe that there is wholesale “fixing” - but there is long term profit and loss potential. Whatever the hell makes the NFL more money - they WILL do it. Just like AT&T, Just like GE, and a host of other multi-billion dollar companies... Whatever it takes. If you choose to take “rigging” out of the equation, after the trials, after the scandals, after the mob influence of the 60s, after Vegas - then there is nothing I can do to help you. You are saying (the owners) wish to increase their profit each year yet you discount the “possibility” of underhanded actions to “help” that equation along. I submit that it is YOU who are short-sighted. Funny thing about white collar crime - it ALWAYS hides right in plain sight. |

This all started the moment the NFL signed a multi-billion dollar deal...advertising drives the NFL now. It's not really a sport anymore...just a delivery vehicle to abuse your eyeballs with products you dont really need. |

So, you're telling me that if a whistle blower came forward with proof of NFL mandated "fixing" or "tilting" of games, that nobody would report on it. You understand that there are literally hundreds of media outlets not controlled by the major networks. The public being shown that the NFL fixes games or tries to control outcomes would be devastating to the league. The risk of that happening far outweighs any profits that could be gained by these actions. The NFL makes huge sums of money without manipulating their product. Why in the world would they risk losing it all?
