Why would these refs bite the hand that feeds them very well to execute master's bidding?

Suggesting the NFL is rigged implies an incredible amount of control on a whole lot of people. It would just take one whistleblower to bring the whole thing down. Certain players do get favorable calls or non-calls, that happens in every sport. I'm sure the NFL would love to have their marquee teams always at the top... are they conspiring together to make that happen? I just can't buy it.
If things fell into place and we had a Rams/Jags Super Bowl... I think the NFL would cringe, but I don't buy into some notion they would do whatever is necessary in the playoffs to ensure that it was a KC/PHI, PIT/MIN or NEP/CAR matchup because they liked the draw better. It's just crazy talk and dreams of jaded fans with misguided notions of being screwed over for decades. Teams fall apart and excel for all sorts of reasons. I'd love to see a Rams/Jags matchup... how could any of the conspiracy theorists explain that one.

Nope, not the best storyline. Nationally, nobody gives a shit about the Alex 'n Andy show.
The aging vet going out on a high note is much more compelling.

Oddly enough, that was my pick before the season with my team at work. Only reason I picked PHI is because my RVP lives there.... would be an interesting matchup.

If it is rigged, I really don't believe that the motive is the possibility of certain matchups. There have been too many examples where the seemingly perfect matchups for the Super Bowl have gone down the drain in the conference championship games. This is an older example, but in 93 we lost out on having Montana vs Young in favor of having Buffalo vs Dallas part II. I tend to think the motives would be directed more towards gambling habits and accommodating point spreads for regular season games.

Most ppl who bet on sports are gambling addicts, average fans and hardcore fans. The guys making the lines are way smarter and more objective than the average fan and hardcore fans love their teams so much it's hard for them to place bets objectively. They always bet on their favorite team because they always think their team will win and they overestimate how good other teams are based on how their team did against them. Plus you are already losing $10 on every $100 you bet. So in general the bookies and Vegas always win. |
