There are some truly dumb people out there who use the Internet. It's pretty much the only flaw of the entire system, but what are you gonna do? I'll admit, I enjoy them; laughing is one of my favorite things to do. If you enjoy a chuckle yourself, check out this video that "Black Adam Schefter," a troll Facebook and Twitter account, posted today which might be the dumbest "NFL is Rigged" evidence on the face of the planet.
Somebody come look at this. I've seen and heard it all.

I mean, there's certainly a place for conspiracies in the realm of sports. I'll buy that. But to say that the entire league is rigged and the champion of the league is decided ahead of time makes literally zero sense to me.
Take this video for instance: you know what kind of coordination it'd take to pull off that type of choreography?
I know these guys are extremely high-caliber athletes, but they aren't all Bruce Lee. Know what I'm sayin'?
To make a catch, bobble the ball, still be able to put up your thumb in time and then have the defender flying at you realize it in a split second (it happened in a split second, as the video is in slow motion) and then have both players duck and jump in the exactly correct directions would be nearly impossible. And staging it with 22 players on the field at once? Every play? Every game? All game long? Every season? Every year?
Don't even get me started on the logic. You know how many people in the world run with their thumbs up? Millions, if not billions.
It's so genius that it's moronic. Two-thirds of the league doesn't even have a high enough IQ to do that.
And more to the point, out of thousands and thousands of players in the NFL, why hasn't even one player let out an inkling that something was predetermined? With that many moving parts, it'd be nearly impossible for there not to be one whistle-blower. Suggesting that all of these guys are involved in some conspiracy -- for literally no reason at all (the whole concept is pointless) -- is mind-numbingly absurd.
Not to mention, based upon athletes-gone-actors, their acting skills aren't really up to par the vast majority of the time.
As far as trolling is concerned, this one grades out as a big fat F. Though, I suppose he still won, because I wrote an entire article about it.
Oh well...
