Would you still be a pro-sports fan if you knew it was fixed?

Question

Professional sports are fixed. You know, like boxing? Yet there are still boxing fans out there. It's almost as obvious as pro-wrestling!

Football, baseball... anything with that much money riding on it in all the sports books around the world would not be left to chance. Do you think these ****** athletes get paid so many millions because they play a game well? Ha! It's because they can keep a secret.

Don't you ever wonder why in the last seconds of the game, a team will make 2 touchdowns, which totally changes the point spread, win or lose? They will win when they are told to, and lose when it is cost effective!

So this being said, whether you believe me or not, would you still be a fan if you know the outcome was pre-determined, not skill or chance?

It's all in the beer and relaxation my man. Who cares if they are fixed or not - unless you're a betting man.

Answer 4

Some sports like WWE are fixed but most sports arnt and if they were i wouldnt be
