The fan base is being replaced by people who pay good money to be entertained, even deceived. It’s a new world.

I can't ignore Cuban's remarks given the NFL's new tendency to simp hard for the gambling whales.

Re: THE CHIEFS WIN THE SUPER BOWL THIS YEAR.

You make some great points Sinner and I agree with most of them but the one thing I will guarantee is that I will NEVER be "captivated" by Taylor Swift!!

Anyways, as she is already a billionaire she will probably buy the Chiefs at some point and then give the team to Kelce as a birthday present!

Now, there's a storyline for the Disney channel to get their teeth into! Lol!!

I saw that. That was a mock-up that some editor type let slip by. Funny, but nothing more.

Everybody has a perspective. God Bless America. If that theory goes against what I see as logical, rational, and it doesn't pass my common sense test, I tend not to look at it as factual. Entertaining. Humorous. Maybe kinda sorta thought provoking. Just not factual.

There are so many hands, and eyes, involved in everything to do with the NFL that game fixing or throwing is impossible. There would have to be hundreds, if not thousands, of individuals in on the scheme to make it even theoretically work, and it is totally impossible that every single human individual with knowledge of anything nefarious would be able keep things under wraps for even a brief minor incidence, not to mention farther reaching undertakings that would have to last weeks, months, and even years.

The NBA had their officiating scandal back in 2005-2007 that was exposed by the gambling industry. That only involved a handful of people and they couldn't pull it off. The casinos have a far greater interest in the legitimacy of the games than all of the stakeholders combined. There is a whole industry that was developed by the consortium of gambling entities that does nothing but monitor all sports that are involved in wagering 24/7/365.

Since when did the conspiracy wackos attempt to use logic, rational thinking, or common sense in their "theories"? That wouldn't make them capable of convincing even themselves. LOL!

The way any Pyramid Scheme works, is that each individual works in a focused manner, in their respective compartmentalized field, seemingly independent, and innocent enough, yet well coordinated to bring about desired results for the compartments above them. How could they “all be in on it”? Easy. Everyone simply carries out their specific task and follows procedure. You not wanting to believe that that’s how it works, or not understanding it, is exactly what makes it work so well.
