I told my buddy who is a huge Bengals fan when the Bengals were getting thrashed and all the calls were going against them that it would be ok, they will make sure it is close. No, I didn't predict that the Bengals would win, but the NFL has no interest in a runaway game. They are an entertainment business. How many playoff games came down to last minute field goals? ALL pro sports are entertainment and while they can't actually create winners, they can create the atmosphere in the game that shapes it to the result they desire. More like WWE all the time. I have the feeling that college sports are nearly the same. Sports are a DIVERSION provided by the DS to keep us occupied. Time to wake up, it's just as "real" as Biden's presidency.
