Because i do 

You know, Murrays wimbledon is a succes now. No matter what happens from this point on; this is a succes for him. He managed to do something Nadal and Federer didnt manage to, he came back from being down 2-0 and 2-1. Also, in a tournament with so many upsets everyone was like when Murray was down 2-0: "OMG another upset, holy shit, so many upsets this wimbledon" this creates a lot of media awareness towards the sports which is GOOD. They wanna boil as much soup as possible on this! And for Wimbledon in general, they are happy as fuck to have a scottish player in the final. How many viewers and attendences do you think Wimbledon will lose if Murray does not manage to get into the finals? 100k? 200k? 500k? So of course they are happy as fuck that Murray managed to win this game, and they will be happy as fuck if he beats Janowicz which he will, and once he is in the finals; they dont give a fucking birdshit about what happens to Murray, then he is getting eaten up by Djokovic the lion. When Djoko beats Murray in the finals; 

Djokovic will be happy as fuck
Murray will be happy as fuck that he actually managed to come back and do better than Nadal and Federer and he will be happy as fuck with the fact that he managed to get in the final (and he will ALWAYS be able to blame his injury when he doesnt win, which is a good weapon to have in the bag and that his preparation wasnt good so this is another good thing for Murray)
Wimbledon will be happy as fuck
Viewers will be happy as fuck with having the 2 best in the finals

This is a win-win-win-win situation for everyone. EVERYONE. It's clear to me that this is going to happen, Djoko - Murray in the final with Djokovic as the winner. Therefore im throwing 30 units on Djokovic to win wimbledon coz i know this tennis sport is rigged as hell, and even if it wasnt rigged; he would win coz he is clearly the 10 times better player than Muray is.


Its so obvious that this is going to happen that it hurts me. 
And thats why im throwing 30 Units on it which is 30% of my bank roll on Djoko to win wimbledon, i dont believe in any ways that Murray can win this. 

Rigged, or not rigged, Djokovic is the winner of this Wimbledon, and Murray will 100% make it to the finals, and once he is there: No1 gives a fuck, this final is what creates most viewers possible. With this drawing, u cant find a final that would make more people watch the final. 

Way too obvious for me.

Djokovic, Winner of wimbledon 2013.

And another thing, IF Murray manages to win a set from Djoko in the final, it will be an even bigger succes, coz he will be THE ONLY player that managed to steal a set and he should be happy as darn with that.

^^^^^ in the NFL anyways ,  NFL says all we guarantee is that when u buy a ticket to an NFL game , the only right you have is to watch a show, weather it is rigged or not is not the publics business,  

The ticket to the event is just that ,  the organizations can do whatever they want

You both are somewhat correct and catching on to the world we live in.  As Gavinnick said the NFL is a show, similar to a play or a circus but with slight variance.  Same goes for NBA, NHL, MLB etc.  It is all about ratings, ticket sales, and all other products that they can sell to fleece the public.  The thing is though, tennis is an individual sport, so generally what they do is pay off whoever they want to lose a very nice sum of cash in exchange for playing out the script.  They must sign confidentialty contracts in the process.  It's all about generating headlines and interest in the sport.  Sports are big business, and it all revolves around the almighty dollar.  If you catch onto this and can read into the scripts before they are played out, you can make good money.

The real question is what kind of payday did Verdasco get for playing out the script and tanking the match in 5 sets.

It was funny, because did u see the 3rd set? Murray was not even troubled in any ways, he won the games easily despite Verdasco being the guy that delivered the best tennis in the first 2 sets, but all of a sudden, Verdasco played horrible right out of the blue?

It's kinda like that cirque du soleil show in vegas where the performer accidentally fell and died last week.  In general the script plays out to perfection, but sometimes one of the actors messes things up.  In sports, the players are the actors, and sometimes they mess things up, so there is slight variance but in general the script plays out as meant to be.

What will happen tomorrow is most likely; Djoko will win 3-0 and Murray will get into the finals in any given way. Then Murray will take a set from Djoko as the ONLY one, and he will be the ONLY one that came back being down 2-0 in sets of Federer and Nadal, so his Wimbledon is a huge huge succes and Djoko will win the final and still be happy as darn. 

Its a win win win situation for everyone here that Djoko wins the final 3-1 or 3-2 against Murray. Its too obvious.

and then Murray will obv. blame his injury "ohh i wasnt too fit for this game and Joker played well out there on the felt, when i get this injury sorted i will get another shot" 

And murray is still happy, he has still got chances of winning the US Open and maybe Wimbledon next year.

This has a Djoko - Murray final written all over it with Djoko as the winner.

I think the script calls for Djokovic and Murray to make the finals, but I can't get a read on what they have orchestrated for the finals yet.  Part of me thinks they want Murray to win it this year.  But if he loses do they make more money long term?  Tough one to figure out.  He will definitely be in the finals though as that will shoot the ratings sky high.

Murray's Wimbledon is a success now? 


The public over here thought he would steam roll Verdasco and to have won it 3-2 was nothing special, If he loses to Janowicz he will be Scottish again.

If he wins it all or loses the final to Djokovic 3-2, Then he can walk away with some pride, Any less and it will be deemed a failure.

Delpo will challenge joker more than Murray as delpo has something that of the top don't have and that is the ability to hit u off the court but can he sustain for 3-5 sets and his health is always a concern.

I love kids commenting:

 and 


Because obviously they wont admit that this sport and many other sports are rigged as hell. Stop living in a fairytale world, i wish all kind of sports were legit, but thats not the case. Just face the facts; this sport is rigged along with many other sports. And now move on.

Of course certain sporting events are rigged.  Obvious and proven.

But Murray v. Verdasco was definitely not.

Where is your proof?

Joker used to throw matches years ago so the Russian mob could hit the Live Betting.  That was proven.  But how was Murray v. Verdasco rigged?  Saying so the ratings go up is ludicrous.  If you weren't watching at 0-0, you weren't watching at 2-0, so you definitely weren't watching at 3-2.

yes Verdasco lost on purpose, just wanted to push it 5 sets to the very end and take a chance that Murray screw up even though Verdasco was throwing it on purpose.
