I think the Cleveland fumble recovery being awarded to the not Browns is probably the most egregious recent ref mistake

Docjowles posted:The Jon Bois Vikings thing is good so far. Episode one wasn’t super funny (although there are a few wild rear end stories) but it was very interesting. I don’t know much about this era of football in general or the Vikings in particular so it’s all new to me. He’s done a good job setting the stage for how improbable it is that they’ve never won a Super Bowl. I'm sorry for their fans but certain teams just should never win a Super Bowl, it's what makes winning one more special. The Bengals, Vikings or Lions winning a Super Bowl would make it practically meaningless. That's just how it works and the Football Gods agree.

I'd like to add that while the Raiders have won it in the past, never again being able to reach those heights but rather chasing the dragon like an addict looking for his next hit is exactly where the Raiders should be for the rest of time.

I think Goodell might actually publicly execute him. That’s a lot of bets on your own team.

I'm curious how these guys actually fared on the bets they placed. Also, I had no idea this was a thing having never watched the new XFL. I still think eliminating the kickoff would be fine too. https://twitter.com/NFL_DovKleiman/status/1686789890392944643?s=20

Yeah, the XFL kickoff might need a few tweaks, but they absolutely should switch to it. It makes the kickoff into a for real football play again, without the car crash aspect

I believe they've mostly gone away from that now tho. Also, my team being historically bad at returning kicks.

3 DONG HORSE posted:You're a moron lol Sorry man but "my client only did that crime to hide all his OTHER crimes" is a bad take unless you're a former president of the united states  I think the NFL's gambling policies suck and something probably has to give with the tension between the league making billions off gambling while also having a zero tolerance policy toward gambling. But betting on your own team's games, and then hiding your identity because you know it's wrong and going to get your rear end in trouble is such a third rail issue, dude cannot be loving doing that.

let them bet straight up wins in their own games, outlaw the rest. the fat cats don't need to math out scenarios or be scared of anything about it besides maybe people on good teams getting too rich for their liking............ buying up all the teams........................... voting power. for a better tomorrow.
