The article certainly makes anybody with a brain wonder. And the most damming past (at least for me) are the stances the NFL has taken in court. They don't even try to sell it as a legit sport. I can see defending your product "with a vengeance" but they don't even say it's not rigged, but simply say that you got to watch the product so . When that wasn't even the question.... Hence me saying they always shift the argument to something that's not even at the heart of the argument. They play the shell game with the question, not the truth. And I would TOTALLY like to see the NFL lose it's anti-trust exemption. That alone would seal the deal. And that's why I SOOOO badly want the defensive players to be represented by a different union. Not that the next one can't be just as taken as the current one, but adding another entity to the hush process would be helpful in making the NFL's charade continue. The anti-trust exemption would be #1, but it'll never happen just because it's right, it'll have to be put into place by other means. Baseball should be next!

For those of us who were around for SB III and IV, it was pretty much an open secret that was discussed in barber shops, bars and churches that both games were fixed for the AFL so that the merger could go through. It's probably no coincidence that neither the Jets or the Chiefs have won squat since then either.

I had kind of figured that was tied in. We sold our souls for the 'good of the league' - to make the AFL teams 'equal' to the original NFL teams, and to make the merger legitimate. No wonder Joe Namath's drunk ass was so cocky with his 'guarantee.' And Shula's reward for throwing the Championship?? the only Perfect Season.

A guy with an invisible girlfriend gets in the playoffs and wins and we lose.

I heard that we really didn't go to the moon, and that Elvis shot JFK and was killed by Michael Jackson when he found out.

Let them win a couple to legitimize the merger and then punish them for the rest of eternity for taking on the mighty NFL. |

You had one of the greatest turn around seasons in history but it's rigged? Quit now and what will you do when kc wins a playoff game or two? Don't sell your investment low...
