    Genetics forbid a father from passing on the same genes (and work ethic, experience, knowledge) that allowed him to be an NFL-caliber player to any offspring. See: Ken Norton, Howie Long, Clay Matthews.
    Ahhh, didn't know he was adopted.

    I need to really brush up on my genetics

Are they fixing World Cups or responsible for what Cameroon did? No. It's like bringing up the Blacksox scandal or Pete Rose betting on games. Are you blaming the MLB for those things?

    The point trying to be made is that the NFL is fixed. Not a few players on teams making money to blow a game or two. That happens in every sport. Corruption exists. The NFL being fixed does not.
    who said anything about fixed? its a business model of entertainment. All employees are told how to have the game play out.There is no law against that at all

    I would think it would be against the law due to Vegas lines.

Peyton Manning may be the best QB to ever play the game and it's hard to imagine that he's been to a couple of SBs?!? And it's unfathomable that his brother is a NFL QB who's made it to the SB, why? Why is it such a great story that they've made it to the SB? If I remember correctly, both years the Eli has made it the big story was the Pats and their unbelievable offenses and nothing with Eli. Even after the wins not many people say Eli won those games. Most of it was the Giants D, the David Tyree catch(which how in the world would you "fix" that.) Nobody but you even talks about how many SBs the Mannings have been to so I guess I don't understand why this is your main point. And if people do care, why wouldn't they have the Manning SB. If the NFL wants to "sell" the Manning name why haven't these two ever met up in the SB?
    its mathematically impossible to happen so frequently ,so easily. It has nothing to do with your pseudo football knowledge about defenses or what ever.
    Quite frankly when you manipulate games you can make it look like a team is winning because of a good defense.Stats are just a byproduct , not the effect of a cause. But the lack of offensive stats should cause your spidy senses to tingle.
    Dilfer goes 11 TDs and 12 ints..I'm sorry but no defense is good enough to make up for that without manipulation.

    I bring up that Manning example because its truly extreme. I'm trying to get you to actually think logically. It simply cant happen.

    you have just been indoctrinated by sports cliché logic that has no basis in fact.
    parity and any team can win on any given sunday. At Strahans hall of fame speech that was obviously written for him by the NFL, he kept repeating the phrase" the improbable is not impossible" over and over again.

    he was trying to get that ringing in your ear so you believe any outcome they feed you.
    that way you don't question 4 rookie QBs doing well as soon as they get into the league.
    You sit and totally don't question Luck/Colts beating the so called mighty Seahawks and Niners but taking a complete dive against the St Louis Rams, at home no less.

    any team can win on any given sunday.
    the stars get the calls.
    Defense wins championships.
    sometimes you just don't get the breaks.
    team of destiny.
    the refs are human,they make mistakes.
    They just wanted it more.

    none of these are truths but relied upon clichés to explain away anything that comes up so you don't question the outcome.

    LOL to say that the stars get the calls already immediately means outcomes are manipulated but people cant put 2 and 2 together.It excuses obvious manipulation.

    heres a news flash for you- there is actually no such thing as a sports dynasty. Its a cliché fed to you so you believe a team can get to and win multiple championships in a completely natural way. Its impossible for a team to get to and win 4 championships in 6 years without manipulation.But people just shut off their logical mind when it comes to watching sports.

    if parity exists how come the same teams keep making the playoffs every year ? oh sure, they throw a wild card bone to a different team here and there but theres only a few teams that cycle constantly getting in or near the top. Parity doesn't exist unless it applies to everyone.
    don't give me your sports clichés about better coaching/ownership/ or players or what ever. Those are just excuses media feeds you so you think it explains it " they just know how to win!" LOL

    all these other teams go through some form of a cycle but you want to believe the Patriots can win for 14 straight years ? and your excuse when questioned is that "well, Brady and Belichick are just that good."No QB and no coach are that good.
    It simply isn't possible without manipulation. But that's ok because America believes and loves the story. Last year the Patriots made to a conference final with 13 signed rookies. Its getting freaking absurd.

    again..I repeat this one. Frank Reich throws 27 for 47 passes all year and yet is able to lead the Bills to the greatest comeback in NFL history in one fantastic 3rd quarter ? No.

    and then the media tells you that of course it was possible because he did it once in college. Him doing it once in college in no way makes it possible to happen again = cliché sports logic that has no basis in truth or fact.

    Saying the NFL = WWE is ridiculous, hence the 9-2 vote currently.

    A "nonresponse that counters nothing" is a double negative so, in essence, you just said, "another response that counters everything".

    That alone is proof that you are dumber than everyone here. This is why your life is shit, you have no job, you live with Mommy and you are a dork worth too much time on his hands that tries to find fault with everything.

    The other posters here are doing things. Working, being productive members of society, carrying on lives etc. All you do is sit around pretending to be smarter than everyone else.

    Your biggest accomplishment in life is putting ram horns on every hideous color combination of football uniforms possible. In a fucking video game no less. You're a joke.

    If you were so smart, you'd get off mom's computer and get a job and leave your mark on this planet. You're not smart. You are a fool.

    This conspiracy bullshit is the playground for the paranoid, the foolish, the psychotic and the mental midgets of this world.

    Why is it mathematically impossible? Eli and Peyton are NFL QBs with a finite amount of teams in the league. There is absolutely a definite probability that they could play in a certain amount of SBs in a certain amount of years. The fact that they are brothers has no bearing on their probabilities to make it to a SB, yet you keep talking about it. You can insert any NFL QB into your argument but you don't because it would sound ridiculous, you feel that fact that they are brothers makes it sound more like a conspiracy. "It's mathematically impossible for Ben Roethlisberger and Tom Brady to make it to 8 Super Bowls in the past 13 years" and they are both in the same conference so that actually is way more fathomable of a conspiracy than two other QBs in different conferences.... if you are going to make up BS theories at least put some time and effort into it.

    And you have obviously have never played sports a day in your life. Let's take a look at HS sports for a second since I'm sure you'd come up with some conspiracy for college if I went there. What about that football team in Alabama, Hoover that has won like 5 state titles since 2003, no such thing as a dynasty? Or Archbishop Wood here in Pa, they have 4 in that same stretch.

    I'll even throw in my own experience with HS baseball. My junior year of baseball we went 4-16 and didn't finish over .500 for years before that. My senior year we limped into the playoffs barely and then mowed through districts and into states smoking teams that had beat us throughout the year. Kids that didn't play very well throughout the year game up big for us in that run but I guess an NFL caliber QB can't play well after not playing so well before that.

    How about the fact that there are 3 High Schools within 50 miles of each other here in rural Pa that have combined for 7 state champions in softball in the last 12 years and lost in the finals 5 times in that stretch? This past year two of them played against each other in the finals. That's gotta be mathematically impossible right?

    Ram, still waiting on the reply to the Dilfer/Collins Super Bowl. Was there a writers strike that year? For someone who speaks so passionately about non-response, pot to kettle. Stop hiding and answer the question.

    On a side note:

    As someone who is not able to work due to being disabled, I get tired of seeing that personal jab. I like to shit on RAM as much as the next guy but that is getting old fast. You have no clue what is going on in his life and it's obvious that he is a very disturbed individual. Do we constantly harp on you for your inability to keep your marriage vows or all those father of the year trophies you never won? NO, so zip it Steeler.

    To be clear, Eric, ram is not intelligent enough to come up with these "theories". The only original idea that "man" has ever had was to put the name of shitty 80s bands on terrible color schemes and then cut and paste them onto baseball and football uniforms in video games. He is a fool.

    Everything that he is spouting is simply regurgitated from another tin foil fuck who probably also loves with his mommy.

    He has. And, even though he doesn't understand the basic fundamental of what is going on, he knows to watch the video dozens of times and just look at the arms. Then watch again and only look at the eyes. Then watch again and watch the hand on the shoulder as the players "help guide each other".
