bruce, to help you see it a little more clearly, there's been an nfl game with an 18 billion dollar differential.
thats a plus or a minus.
coincidently, the people lost....or you think maybe it wasn't a coincidence.
do you really think 18 billion dollars is left to chance on wether eli manning or tom brady throw the ball well?

if the nfl had to depend on tv revenues and t-shirt sales, it would have shut down last millennium.

OK, so you're saying the team owners are owned by gambling interests... or are the gambling interests.

what i'm saying is that the money out-weighs the sport... by far, and therefore controls it.
the crime commited, is through the media.
the media which guides the perception.
the perception which guides the money.
the money, obviously, taken.
