Crazy how whenever I mention NFL being rigged people don't believe u but this is a liberal public broadcasting production so it's obviously credible and real.
The NFL and Gambling are now hand in hand yet players injury reports are still withheld. Vital information in gambling situations. Like the NFL does not know how gambling works? If a casino knows the full status and severity of the injury but all the day to day gambler gets is "not serious" or questionable that is cheating.
full disclosure all the time and as soon as possible or Congress needs to step in and stop the gambling.
This reminds me of how mainstream media USED to do their job. Note they name names and appear to do genuine investigative reporting, not the tripe they pump out 24/7 nowadays. That's the vulnerability of Gen X. We grew up with real news reporting. Sadly, the majority of my generation hasn't yet figured out that times have changed and that MSM is no longer a reliable source for accurate newsreporting, leaving a tremendous unmet need that both real up and coming independant journalists and loads of shiesters are both eager to meet.
Maybe more normies will tune in to this after the refs took over the last 2 minutes of Super Bowl 56.
If they can change the motionless flat Earth into a spinning water ball, they can do anything.
WOO #warmode #radiodawgz
9:29 slight correction: the Stardust was controlled primarily by the Balistrieri crime family out of Milwaukee. Frankie Bal's top capo, Steve DiSalvo, is largely rumored to be the guy who orchestrated the car bombing of Lefty Rosenthal's (called "Ace Rothstein" in the film 'Casino') Cadillac.
This is a tremendous one hour expose. It's appeared on YouTube over the years only to disappear then reappear then disappear then reappear. If you get time, a few books to read that add to this fascinating material are "The Fix is in" and "Larceny Games" both by Brian Tuohy and "Interference" by Dan Moldea.
Who looked this stuff up while watching the Super Bowl
How Jessia Savitch had nothing to do with this documentary
Death
On October 23, 1983, twenty days after her problematic NBC broadcast, Savitch had dinner with Martin Fischbein, vice president of the New York Post, in New Hope, Pennsylvania. Savitch and Fischbein had been dating for a few weeks. After eating at the restaurant Chez Odette, they began to drive home about 7:15 p.m., with Fischbein behind the wheel and Savitch in the back seat with her dog, Chewy. Fischbein may have missed posted warning signs in heavy rainfall. He drove out of the wrong exit from the restaurant, and up the towpath of the old Pennsylvania Canal's Delaware Division on the Pennsylvania side of the Delaware River. The car veered too far to the left and went over the edge into the shallow water of the canal. After falling approximately 15 feet and landing upside down in four to five feet of water, the station wagon sank into deep mud that sealed the doors shut. Savitch and Fischbein were trapped inside as water poured in. A local resident found the wreck at about 11:30 that night. Fischbein's body was still strapped behind the wheel, with Savitch and her dog in the back seat.
After autopsies, the Bucks County coroner ruled that both Savitch and Fischbein had died from asphyxiation by drowning. Neither Savitch nor Fischbein had any drugs other than alcohol in their system at the time of death, and they had consumed only small amounts of alcohol—about half a glass of wine each. According to the New Hope police chief, a similar death had occurred at the same spot some years before.
Savitch's family and a group of her friends later sued the New York Post (whose insurance covered the leased car Fischbein was driving), Fischbein, Chez Odette, and the state of Pennsylvania for damages in Savitch's death. The suit was settled for $8 million, most of which was paid by the New York Post. Some of the money was used to establish scholarships for women studying for careers in broadcasting or journalism at Ithaca College and other colleges.
I tell ya, kinda funny how none of the nfl connection shows up in casino. guess they forgot that part. I love history. I can see why its being eradicated everywhere….
Nice lil gem here… I have a particular interest in early 80's culture.
This may be the broadcast that got her killed. She was most definitely rubbed out.
Back then there was MUCH more emphasis on individual rights of players.
RIP Jessica Savitch (Feb1, 1947- Oct 23, 1983).
On the flip side, here are 5 crazy football bets that actually WON! – https://youtu.be/zP57Cv2lsNA
Why even use a bookie these days is beyond me. Stick to an exchange.
Why cant the player (Messi) be asked if it was a shot at goal, tbh it does look like it was a shot at goal
Last year sky bet online never paid me out on spin awin over 2k . Said there was a machine issue . Wouldn't use them again
I get it if it was from a corner but in this instance it seemed a shot, if it went in it would count as his goal so the keeper saving it should be his SOT
This isn’t that bad, that was a cross aimed at goal, hoping for the keeper to mess up, or someone to get on the end of it. This is 100% a cross.
On paddy power, I had a bet on ronaldo to have 1 shot on target and Darwin Nunez to have 1 shot on target, ronaldo claimed a goal which actually was awarded to him first, then reversed and awarded to Bruno Fernandes. But After checking the stats after the game, ronaldo had 0 shots on target, yet I still won the bet.
They are quick to take the money but start crying when it comes to payouts, sounds s bit like the government!!! Seriously though requires an independent body to review or regulate
If there's even a question it's a shot they class as a cross
The goal keeper made an attempt to save it and did so as he thought it was going in therefore it's a shot on target, the fact they mentioned the power is actually hilarious does it need to be over a speed limit to register as a sot?
They quick enough to take our money yet refuse to pay so many people when it comes to bets and having flutter on the casino
At least Paddy Power has justice payouts and paid out on the Ronaldo goal vs Uruguay, SkyBet would never.
Anyone remember Salah’s sot vs City at Anfield this season?
Ederson made a great safe tipping the ball wide of the post but because the ref gave a goal kick the sot never counted.
The offer was Haaland 2 sot & Salah 1 sot 3/1. The bet landed in the end when Salah scored 27mins later but some punters who had Salah for 2 sot lost a lot of potential winnings.
Talk about moving the goalposts lol
As a soccer player I honestly have to say that the 'shot' they deem a cross is the correct decision. I know itll make loads of people mad but there was no intent to shoot towards the goal rather cross it in. Mishitting a cross doesnt make it a shot it makes it a bad cross… ive seen crosses go bad and turn into goals. Fact of the matter is even tho loads of people are mad… Which i would be too if i bet took that promotion bet it was a cross.
The fact the keeper saved it should automatically make it a shot. It's ridiculous that the intent of the player would even be a factor.
We should ask Messi himself what he intended to do
In all
Fairness they tried to pull this same BS with neymar had he clearly took a shot from a corner however on this occasions despite there best efforts to not pay opta counted it as a shot and they had to back down but these scumbags wil always try to screw people if they can
I wonder if it would it have counted as a shot if he scored it?
The ball was cleary going in… Would it have registered the shot on target had Messi scored?
Ah shit I did this price boost with my matched betting on 3 accounts. Just realised I’m down on that now, damn
