I’m absolutely flabbergasted, and you will be too.
So, before I started writing for the day, I was looking for value in sports bets just to get a few in before the evening grind. One of the ways that I do this is by scrolling down my Twitter timeline, scanning for numbers and seeing if anything pops. From there, I get all scientific with it, but that’s another story for another day.
I want to tell you what I came across while doing this, and it will absolutely blow your mind. (I actually took a break from looking for bets to get right on this, that’s how insane this is)
There are this Twitter account named @NFL_is_scripted, and there’s only 10 tweets that it’s published, with all of them being connected to Super Bowl 50 between the Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers. The Broncos ultimately won this game, 24-10.
@NFL_is_scripted started out their short series of tweets saying that it found evidence that the NFL has “scripts” for their games.
We’ve found evidence that the NFL creates “scripts” for how some of their games should go. Here’s what’ll happen in SB50:

They then proceed to tweet out what will happen in Super Bowl 50, and you can verify it yourself at ESPN, they literally got everything correct. Mind you, it posted this information (Feb. 1—3, 2016) days before SB50, which was held Feb. 7, 2016.

I don’t even know how to react to this … my mind is completely blown … and quite frankly, I’m starting to think maybe the league is rigged. (And FYI, I couldn’t find any verifiable evidence that any tweets have been deleted. This appears to be a real situation.)
What the hell is going on?
I think the sport of synchronized swimming is rigged.
Pittsburgh/Seattle Super Bowl.
The rig was so obvious Bill Leavey, the ref referee apologized.
Of late, the games seem to have become "one score nail biters" where either team could win in the waning minutes of the 4th quarter.
Hmmmm...Seems someone said "Keep it interesting, we need to sell airtime".
The Chiefs did not make the playoffs this year.
Mahomes got hurt, but the team overall was not nearly as good as it was a couple years back.
However, I DO think that the Super Bowl was fixed the year the Chiefs beat the Eagles. The NFL REALLY wanted Taylor Swift on TV as much as possible. Having Taylor Swift on TV increased views by young girls/women that normally do not watch the NFL.
Last year I think that the NFL wanted the rematch between the Chiefs and the Eagles. Again, to get TS on the TV. So, to do that I think they fixed the AFC championship game. Which screwed the Bills. But Philly won the SB.
Seriously....... These days, the question should be, what ISN’T rigged???
Scam Newton tanked that. Peyton’s last game. They wanted him to go out a winner
I rarely sports bet but I have an amazing SB outright win record (I hate moneyline), based on what happens in the week leading up to the game.
Rosemary Plorin aka "Tennessee Mom", got inside Newton's head early in that season. But, it was intentionally brought up again in the week-long run-up to SB50, and by his responses/evasion, I knew Cam was gonna CHOKE.
And I hate Denver but my duckies know no loyalty. I bought a car (used, nothing fancy) with that win.
When the NFL gave the refs microphones and facetime, the refs became the third team on the field.
Dunno, maybe he decided he didn’t want to be on the bottom of the dogpile that was about to form up.
I mean thats what the big bucks are for, but...
“...I knew Cam was gonna CHOKE.”
And the Sun will rise in the East tomorrow morning.............
Lions got shiv’ed at the end of a masterful comeback TD at the end of the game and went for 2 pts, having already pre-notified the refs that he would switch a player to be elegible to receive the winning pass - then after a minute or so, ruled the play invalid. The looks on their faces were close to that on the CNN “journalists” reporting Trumps “loss” in 2020. This was a Legacy Tribute day with Staubach and Dallas Gerry World royalty.
This had to go through New York, ref staff, etc. to keep the wrong team from moving ahead in the playoffs.
Tennis?................
Some people believe it’s REAL..........
Do people bet on professional wrestling?
Yeah, Those so called wire cameras overhead are mind control devices to control the players. It’s a conspiracy folks! ;-)
I don’t .................
What advantage does the NFL brand gain by picking winners?
