Does anyone really beleive for a second a player is going to go out there and play like crap on purpose when they know everything they do is taped and will be looked at when contracts roll around. And, that goes for coaches as well. The only people, and I mean the only people who beleive in tanking on purpose is the fan.

Owners and front offices have embraced tanking in professional sports. I do agree, it doesn't even enter the thoughts of coaches and players.
