Not far. It is probably already happening. FanDuel is the culprit.
Stop in for a cup of coffee

There is a lot of passes that should be caught dropped. I kind of look at Refs and the missed calls. Hmmmmm.
Yep. I had thought of that happening in the WNBA with the bad officiating. But, it's kind of a low budget league and they don't pay big bucks for top notch officials. They need to.
The crew that did the falcons v colts in Berlin definitely needs investigated for this. They couldn’t even get the correct team to call the coin toss. Then a WR shoved a DB to the ground , they called it defensive pass interference when even the announcers and rules experts all said it should have been OPI.
Then there was a call about too many men on the field, yet when replay counted it… each team only had 11 and no one else was nearby.
Worst officiating I’ve seen in a long time.
I may make enemies here but I really don't watch a lot of Football. I am a Steelers fan of sorts but I will go out to do something even when they are playing. But what I did notice and I am neither a fan of nor a hater of the Kansas City Chiefs. But I really think there was a lot of biased calls when I watched their games. It really didn't matter to me just something I thought I observed.
And lately they do not seem to be the favored team
Good Morning All!
Agree to all of the above.
I gave up watching football when Darrin Nelson dropped the pass in the end zone of the 1987 NFC championship game (Vikings/Redskins). No more.
And now with gambling all but legalized on the field, not to mention in the College games, well....
And Pete Rose was banned for life. Oh how the times have changed.

It's Tiger Tuesday!
Good morning
Good morning
Good point!
I don't like that there is gambling that is so much a part of broadcasts, announcers talking about betting lines, whether a team is going to cover a spread. Also don't like all the fantasy football stuff, ok for an office for me but not all on the TV
I couldn't agree more!

That's because we are all old school. My 35 year old nephew is always gambling and he doesn't have the money. We be old....or at least I am
Post up some photos fellas. Veterans Day / Remembrance Day 2025 photo thread
A very wise man I once knew always used to say, "Follow the money" during conversations such as this.
I stopped giving my money away decades ago.

Only good part of gambling I recall was the free cocktails as you sat at the gaming tables or machines in the Nevada Casinos
Good morning everyone. Not a sports ball fan. I had a time years ago Id watch a football game if with friends, but when the whole knee thing happend, I can't. I do feel most are on the take. It wont be long before it is like Nascar. Each time will need their time to shine. If they aren't good, then "make" them win.
