Lost on Colts and Falcons. Did end up changing boys to ML and adding rams cards Ml

Ticket that won - boys ml, Ravens ml, Seahawks ml, Texans ml, rams ml, cards ml

Should’ve added the Vikes and Dolphs but didn’t believe

Anyways, the lottery is rigged. There’s no reasonable explanation for them to do it behind closed doors then tell I the results afterwards. Those positions are manipulated as they see fit

same with nhl, then a day or so after they post a video to youtube of the 'actual' ping pong ball drawing.
Commish usually shows a newspaper with the date as if thats enough to validate the drawing day -_- lmao
theres about a million and a half ways to fake everything they give us, but they just expect it to be enough.

I'd like the see them show everybodys phone in the room showing the drawing date, and weigh each ball on a scale, and show it to us on live tv.
And MAYBE then the results will be acceptable, but as long as these leagues wanna continue to be shady about the whole process the results are always going to be contested.

Imagine thinking the Lottery is rigged lmfao. Every argument that it potentially is rigged to favor ratings/certain teams/etc. is immediately disproven by the fact that the Knicks get shafted in every draft since the 90's.

Anyone with a hint of a brain would understand having your potentially largest market get fucked every year by the draft on top of being a dysfunctional mess is a bad business strategy

If a team sucks for a couple of years maybe it’s a coaching issue, if it sucks for 5+ years then you have a bad manager. If the team sucks for 20 years tho? That’s on the person hiring the managers. Even if the Knicks did get gifted picks they would still botch it because their FO sucks from top to bottom. That’s why they have a 40% win percentage over 20 years

Could make the exact same argument about the bulls post jordan. The only exception? The one #1 pick they got lifted them out of mediocrity for awhile.

It cannot be overstated how valuable a top pick in the NBA draft is. And the knicks despite losing constantly just cannot get really even close to obtaining the #1 pick. It's sad really.

Bulls fans wished that Boylan would get fired and he did, but the more glaring issue is Paxson and Reinsdorf

I do believe Donovan can get more out of them. LaVine is one player I'd like the Bucks to trade for if he was made available and Lauri at times has shown star potential
