Try filing a complaint about the next movie you watch and tell the judge that it's fixed and the script doesn't reflect enough honesty.
I will say that the league wants it both ways, rules and regulations, but not them..
Again, that is a weird conspiracy thing floating around that isn't true. Without them specifically disclaiming after each game that the results of the gamer were predetermined they would be subject to racketeering charges based on the money being spent on tickets as well as the money exchanged in Vegas on said games. The WWE very clearly spells out that they are a "show", and it is reasonable to assume movies are. The NFL portrays the games as true competitions and therefor they are legally obligated to provide that.
