All I know is it was a terribly called game. Everyone I have talked to, including my book, said it was the most one sided calling they have ever seen in an NFL game. You can't tell me the first TD that Seahawks got that was called back on a holding penalty on Chris Grey was a good call. Chris had his right hand flush on the Steeler defenders left shoulder pad, no hooking, no grabing. It was textbook blocking and a terrible call. Im not saying a fix was in. It was a terribly called game. That is a fact. And in the balance was millions of dollars in wagers. Also its not impossible to fix a game. ANy game can be fixed. All it takes is getting to 1 person.
Fixed?

im tired of hearing about ben's qb rating ...
#1 he made a great play staying behind LOS on 3/28
#2 after the bus couldnt get in 2xs, Big Ben scored even tho many think he didnt--im not one, he was in
#3 he laid a block on El's TD pass (legal or illegal, he nutted up)
#4 he ran for a big FD late in game
#5 he found Hines several times for big plays
not always winners are defined by conventional stats--Ben is a winner, isnt he 17-1 in road games in nfl--something like that; and the way he played in coltville and MILE High City, got them here ...
anyone who thinks this game was 'fixed' prob cant fix bacon and eggs

If you think the game was fixed you can't make bacon and eggs. ............Now thats a classic.
Greg, I'm glad you won a game. Considering how rare it happens for you, keep seeing it through rose colored glasses. You happen to be in the over whelming minority on this one. Now do you like yours over easy or scrabbled? LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

That's right, DD. Some elaborate planning would have to happen before anyone could get down with that kind of action in a Vegas sportsbook.
Could such a scheme work? Lets see, you'd need the guy making the wager at the window to be a known, invited guest with huge player status. Then, you'd need lots of these guys, one for each large sportsbook, so you could spread your bets around. And even then, you'd need secrecy to prevent word of the scheme from leaking. Finally, you gotta cash and get out of the casino with the money.
