    I say this as a Colts fan. It was cheating, but we didn't lose that game because they cheated. They whipped our asses up and down the field. The Ginger in charge of the league is a good commissioner in that he makes the league a lot of money, but he's pretty fucking awful everywhere else.

    I've never understood people who say it's better to get blown out than lose a close game.

    For example my high school was once down 28-7 going into the 4th against our rival. We outscore them 21-0 only to lose 35-34 in double OT on a missed extra point.

    It was a crushing defeat, but I'll take it 10/10 times over our 37-0 loss 2 seasons later.

    While I may not agree with it, I think the rationale is sound. If you're gonna lose anyway a fan may rather not ever have their team in the game, so that they do not have the emotional highs and lows that come with a back and forth game.

    Metaphorically speaking, if you were to fall, would you rather fall from where you're standing or would you rather climb up higher and then hit the same place?

    In collegiate sports, that rationale is mathematically incorect, as close losses help rankings more than blowouts. in professional sports that is not the case as records are all that matters in reaching the postseason.

    Anyone who doesn't understand how big of a joke the NCAA is at this point is either under the age of 12 or an idiot.

    To go along with this, various other NCAA violations over the years:

    Dan Issel (best Kentucky Wildcat in history) was at a camp in Denver, where he was GM of the Denver Nuggets at the time and held no position at UK other than alumnus.

    High school player: "Did you like UK?"

    Issel: "Yeah it was great."

    That's a violation.


    Ball player is walking around campus in a severe thunderstorm/tornado watch. Coach gives him a ride back to his dorm instead of having him walk over a mile IN A TORNADO WATCH.

    That's a violation.



    Coach bought a player a pizza because his food money hadn't kicked in yet and the player hadn't eaten in two days.

    That's a violation.



    Oklahoma won a bowl game and was given a banquet. The players were told to go up and get more food. The NCAA said that they received "improper benefits" by having an extra plate of pasta and had to make it right by making a charitable donation equal to the value of the pasta, which was less than $20 combined between the two of them. To avoid looking like two morons donating about $7 each, they made it $25 each out of their own pocket. Over improper pasta benefits.
