Have we officially gotten to the place where professional (and college) sports are difficult to watch?

There has been suspicion for years that games and championships were fixed.. but in the last couple of years it's become more and more blatant. it just seems like everything is planned and orchestrated and picked out months before the season starts. There's always going to be accidental wins, but the calls on the fields and the lackadaisical performances of some of the athletes, just makes it seem more and more obvious. Thoughts or opinions?

You have no proof of that, which means you’re just a wacko conspiracy theorist.

You probably also believe the BS about the 2020 having been stolen.

@RedBaron go watch a major league baseball game to check out the balls and strikes calls. Watching NFL game or even a college football game and tell me that the calls aren't slanted to certain teams in certain players. Watching NBA game and count how many steps they take before a layup, and tell me it's not traveling. The fact that you disagree with my opinion does not invalidate my opinion.. it just means you don't agree big deal. I'm done with this conversation because all you're looking for is an argument and I really don't care what your opinion is of my opinion I have more important things to deal with. Good evening

@FORMERLYbatovn I’m watching one right now.

Making serious accusations in the absence of evidence is not only invalid but paranoid.

@RedBaron hahahahaha. Yet you try to invalidate an observation/opinion because you disagree......THAT is paranoid. If you notice my post was a QUESTION....over and out

🤔..........Just about ever sports teams in all the 4 major sports have sponsors from online sports gambling sites........Even the owners of the teams have a small amount of equity stakes in the gambling sites.......... like Caesars, DraftKings, and FanDuel, Caesars Entertainment..........etc..........It's all about getting the fans to bet on the games........To fill the owners pockets with more cash.......

There's a reason that all the professional sport leagues have changed their public settings to entertainment industries as opposed to newsworthy sporting leagues.
I think its fixed and its so obvious. I was an athlete, loved to watch professional and college sports but now i now care anymore, its all a racket

@Anothermrsockmonkey I've never played sports but I grew up watching it, but I think you're right. It's all business and no sport
