I disagree with this comment...

Here are my real thoughts on this "fix."  I don't think that there was a fix, I guarantee there were missed called both ways.  But not calling the hold allowed the 2H to go over and lose even more money for the books.  Just always thought that shady stuff happens with PIT.  BOL!

Why wouldnt you take the saints at home coming off a horrible loss wih something to prove? Not to mention the steelers are coming off a phoney win on the road for the 2nd week straight.

For action, and some aren't rigged, imo.

But there are about two a week I believe that are.

I will always watch the NFL, and have watched it for a while now.  Rigged games seem easy to spot to me.

I guess some people don't wanna believe they have been lied to all their lives.

I bet there were people in the 70s who though wrestling was real as well.

Think about it.  Saturday there are games starting at many different times - money is spread on 55 + different games.

Sunday there are 10 1:00 games and 4 4:00 games.  So that means there is plenty of opportunity to spread money around.

Sunday and Monday night there is ONE game.

ALL the money that is bet on Sunday and Monday night does not have a chance to get spread around.

People either take their winnings and decide to double them and go big (and at worse if they lose break even on the week, a lot of people think like that too) or they tally their losses and say "I have lost five games today, I am due.  Let's go Pittsburgh!"  And go double or nothing.

So basically the books can get a 100% return from one game if they "rig" it. 

I understand I made a lot of assumptions, but the gist of the message is true.

It is kinda odd to me that generally the same teams and same refs end up on SNF and MNF.

There are a lot of shady things that tend to happen on Sunday and Monday night.


very good one
