I'd imagine there's a lot of overlap, but the NFL has a license to print money. There is literally no reason for them to rig results. No one cared about the Rams when they were in LA last time, no one cared about the Patriots before Brady and Belichik, and no one gave a shit about the Packers for 30 years before Favre. The Colts were a laughingstock before Manning, then became an elite team, and are now just meh.
The NFL wants money. You get that through viewers and by limiting liability. It gets that through offense and the perception of less player danger. To get offense, you have to neuter the defense, which you can do by over legislating penalties so that defenders can't play tight defense. You limit liability by restricting the types of hits players can make and instituting protocols that affect the appearance of player safety. If you want to make money, you generally don't engage in a massive form of fraud endorsed by 32 separate billionaires which results in a disproportionate amount of franchise value being heaped upon a few of said billionaires due to their success being far and away greater than others. "Sure, Mr. Kraft, we'll let your franchise win so much that it's now worth over a billion dollars more than the median NFL franchise value!" Billionaires sign up for those kinds of deals all the time.

I don't think games are rigged but I do believe the officials make calls to keep games close and more interesting......for entertainment value.

I was going to vote for the Berry haters, but Berry's comment about his "spirit" not feeling right to play two weeks ago gives them some ammo.
Tin foil/Jesuit/Big Market conspiracy followers.

There are far, far too many officials around to keep a bottle on that. You think the guy they shitcanned this year wouldn't get millions for an expose about those practices? It would be worth billions to the NBA, NHL, MLB, even college football. It would be grounds for termination of the television contracts. Advertisers would abandon the NFL en masse.

Hard to blame anyone for being frustrated over the Berry situation.

The problem with a conspiracy is it takes a lot of people to cover one up. Way way way too many people involved in the NFL for that to actually happen. The reality is refs just suck at their job which is almost as unforgivable. |
