Bill you're 1,000,000% correct about everything you said!! Both the NFL and NBA are fixed for sure. As you eluded the NBA in the early 2000's made it obvious. I've literally not watched an NBA game, since the series the Lakers (1st championship with Kobe🙏🏾 and Shaq) came back from like 3-1 down to beat that stacked Portland Trailblazers team dominated the league that year. It was as though the refs stop calling fouls for Portland and the Portland players forgot how to play basketball. The NBA needed the Lakers which is a large market and star studded city to win the championship and not a small/mid market team like Portland. I won't even get into the gambling conflicts of interest in both leagues.
