BEST OF TST: Super Simulation Bowl (1/22/24)
BEST OF: Is the NFL rigged? From game fixing (to keep games closer for viewers, or point shaving scandals), to referee instructed by the league to keep games close with no external pressures, to coincidence & AI-simulation-probability, there are many reasons Super Bowl logos have recently seemed to predict final outcomes of the season. And what is rigging anyway? Just because a game is fixed, doesn’t mean the outcome is certain. The idea has gotten traction not just because of superstars like Aaron Rodgers, who made a few jokes about the New York Jets’ chances, but even Sports Illustrated asked in 2024 whether the whole thing, and life itself, was a "simulation." Former running back Arian Foster also jokingly said that he would get a script from the NFL dropped off at his locker during training camp. Some wondered the same thing when the New England Patriots won the Super Bowl in 2002 (Afghanistan), 2004 (Iraq), and 2005, all critical years for patriotism in the 'war on terror'. The 2023 NFL season even began with the league releasing commercials joking about how scripted the season would be - "the NFL may be unscripted, but the commercial is." Then a Canadian public television station pushed the conspiracy further when a January 18th broadcast of CTV New Vancouver Island seemed to imply the game fix was already in. In a box placed near the bottom of the screen, a description read: “Reba McEntire, Usher, and Post Malone are slated to perform at San Francisco 49ers & Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl match-up on February 11.” This was before the divisional playoff matchups. So what does it all mean? Considering the numerous similar colors of countless teams the final logo could apply to many of them, or at least the ones with higher probability of reaching that game. Perhaps if there were such direct rigging, maybe this year the rigging is reversed so as to make the public think there is no rigging, i.e., one or both of the top seeded teams lose in the conference finals – perhaps it’s a distraction to drive the real conspiracy of a Super Bowl matchup between Taylor Swift (Chiefs) and Eminem (Lions)?
