Fixed Sports

  Myself and a few associates have speculated for years that sports are fixed. However, looking at things lately and looking back at some fights, I'm seeing things I missed. Did you know that for all the loss of power Pacquiao is accused of, he actually knocked Chris Algieri out in their fight in the 9th round? I was caught up in the fight, and the moment, but when I went back, it was like seeing it for the first time. Chris got laced with a clean left hook I believe, and it snapped his head back. He crashed down and smashed his head into the mat. Chris was dead to rights when he hit the canvas. His eyes were glazed over, and he looked like Roy Jones twitching out on the mat. The fight should have ended without a doubt period. The referee actually stopped counting and let Chris take about 20 seconds to get up. When he was at the 8 count, Chris was still on the mat doubled over. I've never seen that before, except for the Tyson versus Douglas fight. No one protested. Then when Pacquiao goes to finish, several times he has Chris out on the ropes, and the referee plays a game where he shuffles his feet and acts as if he's going to jump in  if it continues, assuming it won't, and then he stayed frozen while Chris got laid into, exposing himself. There was even 1 or 2 instances where the referee shoulder charged Pacquiao while he was teeing off, and angrily threw him away to the ropes to protect Chris. There was no foul Pacman was committing at all. He was simply overwhelming Chris, who wasn't supposed to get knocked out according to the agreement. Go back and watch this, and you'll see that he actually grunts something angrily to Pacquiao while he does it, that only Pacquiao can hear. I can't believe this has never come up in discussion. He literally saved an investment in Chris Algieri, and all of the big wigs supported and demanded that.

  Then you have the recent comeback fight of Nonito Donaire. That was a true spectacle. If you know fighting, there is no way you could miss that, and yet so many still do. Nonito's opponent clearly held back throwing any power shots, while being laced for 12 rounds. No human, as I stated before, is going to get laid into like that, and refuse to return fire at all. Your human survival instincts will never allow you to. I watched a few fights like that, and it really disturbs me, because the sports have become like the WWE, where you wonder what it is you're really seeing.

  Even watching some of the major tennis matches, it feels like points are shaved, and some games given up at times, to draw matches to  5 sets when they don't need to be. And yet, with all of that, they just declared Pete Rose ineligible for the Hall of Fame indefinitely. Over the years, they demonized him on the basis that he bet on games as a manager. Somehow, the biggots of the sport justified that he didn't deserve induction as a player because of that, which always looked, sounded, and was retarded. Many of the old-timers that I argued with would just recite over and over how egregious it is to bet on the holy sport of baseball, like cultish robots. I always asked them, that if character is the question, what does the hall of fame mean. I also asked them if they would respect the hall of fame if Michael Jordan wasn't in it, simply because he had a gambling issue. We don't even know for sure if he didn't bet on basketball games. The bottom line, is that often the issue raised was character, and I continue to argue that I thought the Hall of Fame was about the greatest players, not the greatest fakers. All of the commissioners, writers, and panel members are disgusting, filthy individuals, and that's what angers me. The NBA flames and destroys Tim Donaughy for filthy referee tactics, yet they continue to rackateer off of the same thing.


  Shortly before they passed this recent decision, the Major League began accusing Pete of betting as a player. And instantly, I knew they did that because they were tired of how stupid they looked banning someone for life, for betting as a manager, when they were the greatest player of all time. How would the Hall of Fame look years from now with that over their head? But while everyone eats that up, I simply ask one question- How in the heck did he achieve his stats as a player, by manipulating games as a player? The man has 4,000 plus hits. The greatest players today can only dream of 3,000. You're telling me that he did that, while winning championships and other awards, and he was shaving points the entire time as a player?! Does anyone actually think about that?! Too often, people mindlessly follow the nonsensical rhetoric that they're fed. It's annoying. Sport today are filthy, and the ones vilified are sadly the cream of the crop.
