   Rigged, scripted, and thrown.   
      
   There were several highly suspicious acts on the part of the Ravens which   
   cannot be attributed to mere stupidity.   
      
   * Three ejectable offenses by the Ravens defense (two in the last FG drive of   
   the first half, one in the clincher)   
   * Two end-zone turnovers (throwing into triple coverage (with a sprinkle of PI   
   thrown in) and failure to secure the ball   
   * Taunting after a long reception down 17-7 (by the same guy who fumbled one   
   of the aforementioned turnovers).   
      
   And there were a number of others too, but you start with those six.   
      
   That was one of the worst lay-down jobs I've seen in 20 years.   
      
   Last weekend:  The most-watched Divisional game in history.  Just over 50   
   million saw Buffalo do a less-obvious lay-down to the Kansas City Swifties.   
      
   Fuck Andy Reid.   
      
   Fuck his apologists.   
      
   And fuck the NFL and THEIR apologists for trying to pass this insult to the   
   intelligence off on the rest of us.

   holds up, to ask questions about the gambling suspensions from last summer for   
   the Lions?  And possible showing of ties between the NFL and the sportsbooks?    
   Asking for friends.)
