Ben taking years and not seeing the obvious open receivers then curling up before the defender is even near him?
Calling a time out instead of running the clock out and then throwing a interception conveniently enough for the dick berger on the other team to bomb one for a touch down?
Screwed the -3.5 and under 23 whatever just seems kind of shady lol. But whatever.

Funny, huh? They were moving the ball well. Why called a timeout? After the timeout, threw an interception. Could have ran the ball, then kick a field goal and go into the half up 16 - 10.

Right? I don't want to hear anything from people saying it's not but betting either way you got to just think about it lol. That over is looking shot now too.

Back in the days, sports are pristine. Now, it's all about business, the mighty dollar. If it's all pristine and winning games, why is Silver pushing for legalizing sport gambling in his league?

Yeah, because Ben really needs the money. What a special group of idiots we have here.
You actually thought that it's all about Ben and his paycheck? Have you ever fathom how much money goes through major books on each single games? Books don't care about Big Ben. They cared about themselves first.

First off, no one disputes there was a fair amount of mafia rigged games for college basketball 30-40 years ago - this is documented. Same goes with African soccer matches. When the athletes are being paid nothing there is incentive to point shave. Today, players getting paid 6 figures for a game check, not so much.
With regards to Silver, legalized betting means more eyeballs and more incentive for us to watch shi.tty games. The leagues bring in far more $$ from TV deals then Vegas does. Recent contracts with ESPN/Turner will pay the league $2.6 billion annually. This far exceeds the revenue (not even profit, just revenue) that Vegas will take in on bets this year.

Some issues are better left under the rug. Each have their own opinions, I guessed.

NFL is a multi-billions industry you dont its easy to manipulate the outcome
Not really sure what that means....
However, I think that claiming "its easy to manipulate the outcome" is not really thinking anything through... I understand that the NFL is a multi-billion dollar industry, but why would an entity that large risk fixing their own games and all that profit.
Also, how does the NFL go about informing each team who is going to take the fall? How is fixing a game from the NFL's standpoint profitable? And if people in the industry are aware of a scandal like this, how does everyone manage to keep it so quiet?
But maybe the best question of all..... If you believe sports games are fixed, why would you frequent a betting website, let alone bet on games?

I guess the next thing you'll say is Ben must have got the call from vegas telling him that he needs to cover the 2nd half. The special runs stupid in these ones.
