Fine...better than Newton's.
The Seahawks will be favored by at least two TDs in NY. The odds makers and refs won't be able to "adjust" a score to suit themselves.
Do you truly believe Vegas and the refs 'adjust' scores?
Yes, when they can get away with it. I believe that refs are human beings with families. I believe that gambling interests are built on a foundation of criminals. I have personal experience with the Mafia from many years ago. There is no doubt in my mind that if given an opportunity to rig a popular sporting event that they wouldn't hesitate. Threatening a ref or two or thier families would mean nothing to people like that. All those people care about is making as much money as possible as easy as possible. Obviously they can't do it with a high degree of frequency because there would be investigations. In my experience the giveaway is an unusual or odd spread that does not make sense in a given history. One thing you need to know is that Vegas can set the opening odds anywhere they want to. There is no authority that they have to justify thier odds with.
Vegas sets odds to attract gambling interest. They usually set odds that reflect the probable outcomes based on recent history. If yesterday's game was going to be "left alone" and played based on team talent and recent history the Seahawks should have been favored by at least two TDs.
You can pretend that gambling syndicates are always on the up and up but I know better.
sure this game was fixed,thats why they called nearly as many penaltys and penalty yards against the Niners as they did the Hawks.comedy gold from you as always Hug.

QUOTE=HUGGY;8273458]Whatever. You people are morons. I hope the team is as pissed as I am about having a game stolen from them and they take it out on NY. I hope they have to cart that ***** Manning out on a stretcher. When someone steals from me I want to see a pound of flesh extracted. I sincerely wish a very bad and painfull "accident" to befall the Officials in yesterday's game. I would find news of a firey car crash where someone's vehicle rolled over several times and the occupants could not escape burning to death welcome.
That would help me "get over it".[/QUOTE]
Yep it was stolen from them alright,thats why again they called almost as many penaltys and penalty yards against the niners as they did the Hawks.


Love your logic how the Hawks screwing it up with stupid penaltys they clearly made,is somehow the refs fault.


I saw the game as well you know and sorry,the refs were on their game on those penaltys they called against them.


again,it would be one thing if they had only called 2 or 3 on the niners but that wasnt the case,they had just a couple less with just a few less penatly yards.
You remind me of ex chiefs coach Todd Haley Hug.a sore loser just like him.Haley when he lost to a bitter rival like the broncos,at the end of the game he wouldnt go shake the hand of the other coach. You're just as bad.You make excuses when the Hawks lose,blaming the refs when the Hawks beat themselves.
Even in that Colts loss,you cant blame that loss ENTIRELY on the refs.Sure the colts benefitted from some home twon reffing in that game ruling that fumble recovery of the Hawks a safety instead of a touchdown like it should have been called but even so,The Hawks WOULD have overcome that and won the game if they had no committed some stupid asinine penaltys that cost them the game.
They beat themselves in that game because they gave 10 points to the colts.On one of the touchdowns the colts got,they started deep in their own territory and the drive was kept alive because one of the hawks defenders,ignorantly committed pass interference which was stupid cause he wouldnt have caught the ball anyways and the colts of course were able to keep the drive alive because of that penalty and scored a touchdown from it.same thing happened as well on one of their filed goals,it also was a gimme present given to them by the Hawks.
I remember those penatlys as well and the Hawks defenders were all over them mugging them like the idiots they were giving the game to them that day.
