Yes I think they are because the closer the games the better the ratings; the more teams vying for the last wildcard spots, the better the ratings. And a lot of fans want to see the high scoring games that come from an emphasis on the passing game. First, this goofy thread IS about an alleged conspiracy. Second, if the Bills had had the success the Pats have had since Belichick, the owner of the Bills would have had more money to throw at him. IMO when you look at long periods of time, the ownership and management of a team, as opposed to the coaches, have a lot to do with their success, or lack thereof. And the league would not object if a multi-billionaire willing to throw money around would purchase the Bills from their current management.
BTW, why don’t you use the Vikings as an example here? (J/K, you're alright for a Vikings fan.) That isn’t “interesting” to me, that makes me
. It is not that we’re “scared of the possibility”, it's that we won’t fall for a BS conspiracy theory without facts or some kind of substantiation. The NFL is swimming in money, there’s no need to engage in this kind of nonsense. That's why I brought up Goodell’s supposed motivation for this and the dire consequences to the NFL if such a scandal were exposed. BTW, I missed where you addressed those points: What would motivate Goodell to take such an idiotic gamble? Also, what do you suppose revealing such a scandal would be worth to an NFL official? Why would Goodell trust numerous officials willing to engage in cheating to keep the secret when revealing it could mean millions of dollars to them?
Their high moral character? Quite frankly, the exact opposite conclusion could be reached about your ******** detector. As a matter of fact you may want to check it, it’s probably clogged after reading that blog and you just don't realize it.
