    Just about all my books offer odds on WWE and the Oscars and ton of other stuff thats already pre-determined.  The thing is even though its pre-determined we just don't know the outcome and thats what the books bank on

     Personally I watch very little NFL..i wager on some of course but find it boring to watch...give me college football any day..   As for games being fixed of course some are.  Common sense tells you that.  And there is proof of that...  Mafia did it !!   And that cannot be disputed..
