I think they got the call correct, and I said as much when it happened, before the replay ruling was announced.

Besides...**** THE RAIDERS.

I apologize. Earlier in the thread I thought you were using the tuck rule as evidence of the fix. I must've misunderstood.

That was smellypitts, and I think he used it as an example of a call that could be interpreted basically any way the refs want the game to turn.
(Correct me if I'm wrong)

Of course, that game went to OT, and the Raiders had two chances to stop the Pats after that call - once on the game tying drive and once in OT. And Vinatieri had to make those kicks - no small feat.

Rigged or not, an exhilarating game that will always be a classic.

**** THE RAIDERS.

If you want to talk about moneylines, NE opened up at -160 at Pinnacle and closed at -128.

Again, someone explain.

You pulled one shitty book. Why don't you pull the Vegas lines.

That's still a small part of it.
There's no doubt that every bookie all over the country had a majority of Joe's who thought Carolina was winning no matter what.

.....oh this is about the Pats, nevermind.
But a majority thought Pats would win too

No. That's multiple books and it seems all of them closed at -2.5 or -3.

Vegas books closed at -3 as well:

Dunno what you're smoking over there.

I remember being young and tending to believe every conspiracy theory that came along.

Then I grew up and learned how to look at things critically.

This thread is the epitome of twit Olympics. Which some of you probably think was rigged, too.

No, you went from believing in Santa to believing what ever a majority view told you.
But your avatar is cute

No, I stopped listening to Alex Jones.

BTW, you mentioned that a 15 year run at the top can only be due to a conspiracy. Just out of curiosity I looked and the record for football winning streaks at any level was set by De La Salle High School in California with 151 straight wins over 12 years (1992-2003). Conspiracy? Probably not.

I also have to agree (I think it was Sully) that a negative cannot be proven so there is no way to "prove" that the NFL is not rigged. As that is the generally accepted norm (not rigged) then it is incumbent on those who believe otherwise to provide the proof.

Finally, if the league is rigged (and Blackops seems to think it was from day one) then there are hundreds if not thousands of people involved that have never said a word. Stretches the limits of credibility right there alone.

Your second paragraph proves lack of critical thought.
It assumes the crowd who doesn't think something is up is right and has no need to think otherwise. It's childish school yard logic to say the burden is on the -fix- crowd.

Lol at using a high school win streak to prove the pros don't script unrealistic outcomes. It would be 300 times easier to fix a high school game with one official.
Regardless, you can't compare a bunch of snot nosed kids to what is supposed to be the cream of the crop on every team in the pro's.
There's been thousands of actors and politicians and you know their jobs are fake but you've never really heard them say anything either. A jock is not much different from an actor.

I was pointing out that it is entirely possible to have long term winning streaks without the need for anything to be fixed. You are coming from the opposite side, you assume that since it is unusual to occur it must be rigged. Sometimes the truth really is the easiest path with no outside influence needed.

You are correct, we all do know that actors (I will leave politicians out for now) are faking their jobs. That is why they don't talk about it, it is a known FACT.

Believe it or not, not everything is a conspiracy just because you do not know the inner workings. 911 could have been an inside job (I had fun thinking that for quite a while) until you realize just how many people had to be in on it and yet there was never any leak. A secret is only truly able to kept by one person.

Anyway, I am out for a while. I just wanted to participate in this epic (ly stupid!) thread.

Ok, lets go ahead and say its all a sham

Why bother watching it, or following the Chiefs now... we'll never win it all again anyway, right?
