The officiating has been historically horrific this year. Multiple objectively wrong calls have been made or have been missed that have had game altering implications.

Players themselves don't need to be on the take. The officiating is all that needs to be altered to ensure games reach the desired outcome. And the NFLs officiating process is about as untransparent as it gets

At minimum, the league needs to be investigated for fixing games to enrich itself and its partners. But maybe a nonprosecution agreement was reached between the nfl and federal government wherein the nfl agreed to allow Taylor Swift and others to be used in certain ways to assist Biden and diminish Trump. If I was the Western Intelligence State that's exactly what I'd do - blackmail the most watched product in the United States into cooperating to protect the country from Trump.

This is more important than "the integrity of the NFL." This is about preventing the United States from being utterly dismantled by our adversaries, and utilizing any means necessary to achieve that result
