The Fix

Just A Question? Out Of 10 Monday Night Football Games How Many Do You Think Are Predetermined By The Nfl Or Some Outside Force?

[Masu485]

i honestly think a lot are. but most people will just try to shut you down and call you immature because you say that. that's what pisses me off. why is it so farfetched for games to be fixed??

[keystonekid]

Take your feelings out of it and you will do fine picking the games.

At this level it's not likely. These people are making enough money without risking time in prison to fix games. Not saying it never happens...just probably not that often.

I'd have to say that ANYONE that sincerely believes NFL games are fixed is an idiot if they still bet on them.

I KNOW that slot machines are fixed, and I NEVER play them.

What kind of person proclaims the NFL is "fixed" and then continues to bet on NFL games? A fool.

I'm not saying there not fixed, only because I cannot prove it, I personally don't believe it though.

[keystonekid]

Call me an idiot, but, I know they can be fixed.

[Ganchrow]

Until I'm made aware of compelling evidence to the contrary my estimation would be zero.

I'm sure they could, but of course the mere conceivability of an occurrence hardly speaks to its likelihood.

I'm interested, how do you know this?

Please explain.

[Seattle Slew]

I agree with most. No chance. Players are too well paid nowadays to even consider it.

Horse race fixing is another story, but never at the top tracks. Everyone busted in the last 20 years has been a harness driver or jockey at a cheap track. The top jockeys make too much money to risk it, although you'd think the races were fixed sometimes with the lousy rides some of the top jocks put on.

Probably every one that you bet the chalk and lose in.

Anyone that worries about the NFL being fixed, has no business betting at all.

NBA - now thats a different story.

Seeing how this forum has been buzzing all weekend about how everyone should take Browns ML and Browns + points then I guess it is lucky for us that SBR Forums were made aware of the fix.

Good point, obviously the higher ups here at SBR are in the loop and they got the memo from the NFL.

1 reason why NFL players get so much money: yeah you guessed it, try buying a NFL game GL lol

[keystonekid]

Please explain.

I have been around the block a few times. There are 32 Head Coaches. Take the players way out of the loop.

You have a Corporation that makes billions $.

If you actually watch a football game, it is boring as hell.

How do you make a billion $ industry out of a boring game?

You make a deal with the Head Coaches.

These are your fixes. (They call the plays) Do you see where I am going?

What you've described is simply a theory, not proof, this doesn't count as "knowing".

Who approaches the coaches? What if a coach isn't interested, would they only fix games where he wasn't involved?
Whats stopping a former coach from blowing the whistle?

I can't believe that there exists a system where every coach keeps his mouth shut for eternity, if there was fixing going on, it would eventually get out, its human nature.

I'm still nowhere near convinced.

Only gamblers could actually believe this stuff, most coaches/players don't have ANY interest in gambling.

College football is entertaining. Pro is another subject. Have you ever been to a pro game? It ain't like TV.

[MonkeyF0cker]

Believe it or not, some people even find golf and chess entertaining. Crazy. Nice theory. I'm sold.

Come on. Do not make this rocket science. 2 Head Coaches paid millions $ owned by The Big Boys> dudes on opposite sides of the field knowing what the outcome has to be, calls the plays to each other. EX: Jack: "Hey Bob, got to get 7 points here". Bob: "I know. Ok, call a pass play, I will call a Defensive run play". OK. Thanks. See later tonight at the party.

They are fixed also.

Sorry, your theory is full of holes, not the least bit convincing.

As I said, only gamblers believe this type of nonsense, they believe coaches, players, owners, and refs are all betting on the games, it just ain't so.

(Serious) Gamblers represent a small percentage of the population, true in the sports world as well.

[MonkeyF0cker]

They are fixed also.

Fixed like a leg-humping german shephard.

[golfguy112233]

why does everyone scream FIX when a big upset happens? any given sunday as the saying goes. plus i dont recall a scandal when the giants won the SB last year and that was a bigger upset

You are missing the point. You are including everybody in this conspiracy. I said take the players out of it. And adding the refs. You are thinking to hard on this.

[RogueJuror]

keystonekid when you make a video post it here in the players talk so get to see it. nice vid for mnf.

Fixed like a leg-humping german shephard.

If the German Shepherd was fixed, why is it still leg-humping?
