The richest sports organization in the world is the National Football League (NFL). In 2022, the league is predicted to generate more than $18 billion in revenue. Thirty of the 32 teams in the league appeared on Forbes’ list of the top 50 sports franchises for 2022. A dispute of any kind could harm the league’s reputation due to the high stakes involved, as the NFL has some of the strictest vetting processes for new franchisees to join.
What if the league itself is involved in a scandal, though? One of the more well-known conspiracies holds that NFL games are very similar to WWE matches in that both are scripted events with predetermined results. Arian Foster, a former NFL running back, confirmed the rumors in a recent interview, but it was unclear whether he was being serious.
Well, practice scripts are another benefit. Here it is, in brief. We must act, just like WWF, even though we already know what will happen. In a postgame interview when the Jacksonville Jaguars trailed the Los Angeles Chargers by 27 points in the 2023 playoffs, quarterback Trevor Lawrence stirred criticism regarding the NFL playbook.
There isn’t a weirder script than this, stated Laurentius. Of course, that was a post-game interview conducted on the court. YouTuber and influencer Mark Phillips SupremeDreams 1 tweeted a jab about the Rams playing Tampa Bay in the playoffs in 2022 in an NSFW video.
Foster’s remarks were addressed by current Baltimore Ravens NFL cornerback Marlon Humphrey on Twitter. Foster’s remarks unsurprisingly hurt Twitter’s reputation. There are NSFW responses among them. Aaron Hernandez, a former NFL player, was found guilty of murder in 2015 for the 2013 slaying of Odin Lloyd. The safety for the Buffalo Bills, Dharma Hamlin, suffered a heart arrest after being shot in the chest against the Cincinnati Bengals in the regular season. Hamlin has since made a full recovery.
