That's the part that proves the NFL is an "Entertainment" thing first and foremost.

But hey, the top of that pyramid is getting way rich!

That's the only part that has any merit whatsoever.

And hey, none of the other owners, like Al Davis or Jerry Jones cared that it's rigged.

Jerry Jones doesn't care that his teams never get to win in the POs.

Completely broke ex-players don't care about driving used cars when they are sitting on a multi-million dollar story.

The NFL doesn't care that they would lose half their fan base if this info came out either.

If this story ever did surface, I would actually be happy that all that heart break was BS, and not complete shit luck, and would never watch another game. I'm sure there are millions of fans who would never spend another dime on anything football, and would not be happy like me, but be pissed and never spend another penny.

Sounds like a good risk to take when your league would still make billions without rigging anything.

I'm not saying they don't try to manipulate with bias officiating.

I'm talking about the stupid idea that it's all a show and the players are in on it like you say..

That's the dumbest shit ever..

Sure doesn't seem like it. I REALLY hope he isn't employed by CBS next year. Pereira is great on Fox, but Carey just needs to go.

Yes, but entertainment does not mean it is fixed. You may want to get a dictionary.

Here, I'll help:

en·ter·tain·ment
ˌen(t)ərˈtānmənt/
noun
the action of providing or being provided with amusement or enjoyment.
"everyone just sits in front of the TV for entertainment"
synonyms: amusement, pleasure, leisure, recreation, relaxation, fun, enjoyment, interest, diversion
"he reads for entertainment"

an event, performance, or activity designed to entertain others.
plural noun: entertainments
"a theatrical entertainment"
synonyms: show, performance, presentation, production, extravaganza, spectacle, pageant

"an entertainment for the emperor"
the action of receiving a guest or guests and providing them with food and drink.


Certainly any game watched by people provides enjoyment, meeting the definition, without necessitating fixing or cheating.

English - learn it.

it also doesnt mean it's not fixed :hmmm:

they are calling it entertainment and the players are entertainers as they have said themselves.
Manning is the greatest QB ever ! also happens to be one hell of a ham on tv !
JJ Watt,best DE ever ! arent they lucky he's hilarious on tv ?

unpredictable outcomes where the less popular guy wins would be far less entertaining. Everyone loves the All American boy Manning and gets all warm and fuzzy when the good ol southern boy wins.

People that think that the NFL calling it entertainment is proof that it is fixed are STUPID. I've been an entertainer for 3 decades now, playing in bands. Real bands playing real music. Nothing fake, yet still entertainment.

Again, if you think the fact that the NFL is entertainment proves or even indicates that it is fake you are STUPID.

You seem nice.
Please read my above examples again. No one said calling it entertainment means it's fixed but people aren't entertained if they don't like the outcome. No one wants to see your band if the music sucks. I can safely guarantee that if these outcomes weren't fixed or manipulated one way or another,it would be no more popular than hockey with more various local than national interest
