http://www.debate.org/opinions/is-the-nfl-rigged In 2007 a Jets season ticket holder sued the NFL for $185 million and the case reached the US Supreme Court. The Jets fan argued that, all Jets fans are entitled to refunds because they paid for a ticket to a legitimate sporting event. Had he been aware that the games were not real then we would not have gone. The Judge stated that a ticket to a game only provides you access to the stadium. The fan entered the stadium, witnessed a game, therefore he did not suffer any damages. The fan's lawyer disagreed and argued that the NFL committed consumer fraud. Judges ruled that fixing a game for entertainment purposes was completely LEGAL. |
We can make a test case. There's not a chance in hell the NFL would want Seattle, with their repeated PED and other drug violations, anywhere near the Super Bowl. So let's see if some controversial call goes against them.

That doesn't mean that fraud would be legal at all. |

The push is from the NFL offices, from the commissioner down. The refs care because their superiors care because there is a lot of money on the line, especially with the Vegas connection. |

His statement about the lawsuit is incorrect though. |
