M&Ms to contain WHAT???

And BTW, maybe not all of the games but the important games are rigged. What all the sheep in this country are watching is exactly what they want you to watch. There's way too much money involved to leave those games to chance. Anyone that doesn't believe that is living under a rock, or a spell.

Man. Next you will be telling me reality tv is scripted

You can substitute “boring” for “scripted” and get the same result.

I just love to hear people who believe the whole world is a giant conspiracy . Each player on the winning team got a payout of $153,000. If you were on the losing team you only(?) got a measly $82,000. And you are telling me that all the players on the losing team are going to conspire to lose the game and give up $71,000 just to make it a close game to keep the ratings up and make someone they probably don't even know richer? Come on! I have no problem with people who hate football, I myself am only a casual fan. But you should really consider joining reality.

That's just what they tell us. Actually all starting players received $213,079.53.

I didn't say the whole world is a giant conspiracy. I said the NFL football games are rigged. And in what imaginary world do you think it takes ALL of the players on a team to throw a game? Actually one player can affect the outcome of a game score. Also, I didn't say anything about winners or losers. The money is in the point spread and over/under. You should go watch some of the games leading up to the playoffs and take your own advise.

There have been rigged sports for hundreds of years. Boxing was rigged. Basketball refs have been found guilty of rigging games. Pro baseball has be marred by scandals of players betting on games while playing or managing teams. Why is it so unbelievable?

From the archives: How former ref Tim Donaghy conspired to fix NBA games

On the anniversary of Tim Donaghy's resignation from the NBA, ESPN revisits how the disgraced referee conspired to fix NBA games, whom he did it with and the untold millions that flowed from the conspiracy.

Here’s some more “suspect” games, including NFL Super bowl games:

Are you asking me that? Ask the one's that don't believe it. I do. For some reason most of the population thinks that wrestling is real, the NFL is pure as the driven snow and want to label someone a conspiracy theorist if they say the NFL is rigged. It's laughable. It's also very hard to prove.

 

[Cougsfan]

I am not one who believes professional wrestling is a true sport nor am I naïve enough to think there has never been a sporting event that was rigged, or that it is not possible in any sport. But your claim that all important NFL games are rigged sure comes across as a conspiracy theory. If the were caught doing that (and it would be very hard to keep such a routine practice that has been on-going for years under wraps) it would absolutely destroy the credibility of the sport. And if we don't buy into your conspiracy theory we are all just being duped. Your statement that "it is very hard to prove" as support for your position also falls into the conspiracy theory mindset. Sorry, I still don't buy into the firm belief that many NFL games, all Super bowls and other major sporting events are rigged. It may have happened on a rare occasion, but it is not a most likely not a regularly occurring practice.

If there ever was an example of how to drive customers away from a product, then their super bowl commercial was a good example of it.

I'm thinking copious amounts of acid and shrooms were involved with the production of that commercial.

Well I just showed you NBA basketball was rigged for many years and it’s still considered a “credible sport”.
