Love seeing this bit of skepticism and that it led to Semper digging deeper and fleshing out its significance.
It's a bit sad, but for the normies, discovering that sportsball is rigged could be the biggest wakeup call of all.

I don't believe the league is scripted in a complete sense, but rather that certain key players, coaches, and refs are told to lean the game a certain way or focus on a certain player.
Imagine it like this. If even a single person at your workplace was on the take from an outside entity, what level of disruption could they cause? Down systems? Damaged inventory? OSHA coming in?
It doesn't take everyone being involved to swing a game, just a few.
Too much stuff, too little space in a post...
On your points about it only takes a few, I agree 100%. A bad coach doling out penalties like candy can get do a lot of damage. Add in a player on the take who keeps "causing" penalties and the team gets bumped back several yards. A player not making his tackles or a coach making bad calls.
It doesn't take many to make sure a team won't win even if 99% of the players are sincerely playing their hearts out.
