My degree in philosophy only teaches me about proper reasoning. Is it possible the NFL is fixed? Yes, sure. Is it even close to probable? No, given human nature alone, but let's look at how random events are on the field (yes I played) as far as coaching, talent, preparation, weather.........you could go on........
What if Dwight Clark drops that pass, same for Franco Harris.
Even with all of this I believe and am in my epistemic rights to claim I know with reasonable certainty it is not fixed (I stopped watching years ago BTW) for two simple reasons. If it is all scripted why allow a players union and free agency. Get drafted and go play your part.
I do wonder how long all the wife/girlfriend/child beaters will keep their mouths shut
