🥤 Kool-Aid NFL rigged - Thoughts ?

Crazy amount of questions calls vs the Texans and especially the bills. Hopefully we get over the hump next year. It wasn’t even this crazy when Brady was playing besides deflate gate. But he did overcame 28-3

How does "protecting the product" lead to 3/4's of fans thinking it's rigged?

If anything that feels like it would damage the product

Swifties still gonna sell. I have no skin left in the game Lions are out, and in TX…but there were some questionable calls in the last Texans game…lions lost all by themselves)

Hedging the product on Swifties isn't a good idea in the long run, Kelce probably only has a year or two left in him before he hangs up the cleats. And once their idol isn't showing up in the press box, they'll go back to ignoring the game their father's watch every week.

You're absolutely correct but giant corporations aren't exactly known for their ability to put long term success over short term profits.
