Think games aren't scripted?

I'm in a mood this morning. My friend says games are legit and no funny business is going on. He says that too much money and careers are on the line for there to be any shenanigans in play. I tell him it's just the opposite and the fact that BIG money is in play is the very reason that certain play call rulings during games ARE in play. Not every game or every play but certain plays and situations are influenced by a play ruling that will give the opportunity to a particular team to change the outcome of a game.

Vonn Bell's strip sack of Jones in the backfield ruled an incomplete pass? I've viewed it 20 times and it sure looks like the ball is out of his hand before forward movement. But no, score was 20-12 at that point and a TD would make Bengals up 26-12. Can't have that in Foxboro as viewers might change channel. Have to try and keep games close for more eyes on the tube. This is just 1 play, there are many calls that are overturned or not overturned that should be that give a team an opportunity to capitalize from that call.

Isn't just the NFL, it's MLB with the questionable balls & strikes calls, NASCAR with the fake yellow flag for a hot dog wrapper on the backstretch to bunch up the field. It's about BIG money, betting and the TV contracts. Wherever there is BIG money there are manipulating fingers. The general viewing public has no idea, they live with a blindfold on.

There my rant is done. I feel better.
