All Sports Are Rigged
Every game in every pro league? It would be impossible to keep the thousands of people involved over the years from letting the secret slip out. So how about leagues preferring specific teams? I don't think every game is rigged. That would take a ton of effort and orchestration. Plus players actually have to be good. Owners can't just build a mediocre team and get carried by the rigging.

Alex Rodriguez is fuming over losing the Mets to billionaire Steve Cohen and griping that the process was rigged, multiple sources tell The Post. Sources close to the former Yankees slugger say the. I agree with you- not every game is rigged. They cannot make it blatant, and they can only skew the game to one side so far. I was going to post a video of a rigged new orleans saints game (american football) where the team that was supposed to lose still managed to win, but the search results were overloaded with dozens of other rigged games. Sports aren’t rigged. However all sports leagues have outcomes and matchups that would make them the most money. That’s why Alabama, Duke, Lakers, etc seem to get all the calls. You’d be crazy to think otherwise.

Are all sports rigged?Posted by yaboidarrell on 1/4/19 at 10:09 pm
Nfl, nba and mlb viewership were on a downward spiral. This year a lot of games came down to the wire in all three leagues. So much so that it seems fishy. I'm thinking they make the games purposefully exciting to keep people watching.

The only unarguable “rigged” game in modern sports history was 2002 game 6 lakers vs Kings

NFL is
Nba was, but has appeared to have gotten a lot better. Despite what happened last night, nba typically has the best officiating

No, the nfl does it with nearly every game every week directly in our faces like we are stupid
Catch vs not a catch. Pass inf vs not. The nfl is the worst. I’m getting sick of their shite and I dgaf about the anthem stuff

The Diamondbacks beating the Yankees after 9/11 proved sports aren't rigged

I used to accuse the nba of fricking with game flow on natl TV games. They take longer breaks and varying times in the game than do regional telecast. The breaks also vary in length. It hasn’t seemed as bad in the last 4-5 year

Why on Earth would Alabama make the most money?
Give Florida, USC, Ohio State, Texas etc the success of Bama and they're making way more

I wouldn't say the NFL is rigged, but the NFL can steer games via the refs.

I don’t believe so
Though we do know the WCF in 2002 was intentionally influenced by officiating, and I’ve always suspected the same about the 2006 Finals.

Help me out with the subtle distinction between 'rig' and 'steer', please.
We all see shitty calls by the refs. They happen. I think we tend to remember the ones that go against our teams and usually forget about the ones that go our way.
But here's what I want to know:
Does the NFL gave a meeting every Tuesday morning to pick the next week's winners?
Is Vegas at that meeting to determine the final point spread or is that done in the wee hours of Sunday morning after the college games are complete?
Is there a guy at NFL HQ on Park Ave every Sunday afternoon watching a half dozen games simultaneously and communicating instructions to the referees during commercial breaks and at halftime?
I understand that a close game is better for viewership than a blow out. But is the marginal ad revenue on a more competitive game worth the risk of being exposed as the new Championship Wrestling and having your multi billion dollar business go down the shitter? It doesn't make sense to me.

No. And people that think there's systematic fixing in professional team sports are stupid or kooks or both.

All-pro Sports Are Rigged
.
Idk maybe dig deeper into the referenced material and listen to what he’s saying about it. I can’t answer all of these questions, just relaying what I found to you kind folks for you to draw a somewhat informed conclusion based on said materials.
It just doesn’t ring true for me with football too many people on a team to control it. The more I think about it, even if there are a few people in in the fix in any sport..are they able to make it so their teammates can’t win though they are still putting in an effort to win? It just seems then those few players have to be super players or something to beat their whole team.Idk maybe dig deeper into the referenced material and listen to what he’s saying about it.
