There is obviously many things that can potentially mix into this,, but this year has been quite the eye opener to me,,

Ranking from least to Most,,,
1. CBB
2. Canadian FB.
3. College football
4. WNBA
5. NBA
6. NFL

Let me say, in the systems I use, its a combination of combining "winners" picks with "losers" picks and Real Money flow to a specific Side,,,

1. CBB, there are just too many games,, any collusion or corruption that occurs herre gets watered down by the sheer MASSIVE amount of games that occur,,, enough so that my data can clearly show year after year consistent patterns,

2. CAN FB,, lol what can I say,,, its canada,,, lol every year they style of play is consistent, always seems the right side wins,, even when your wrong,, things make sense,,

3. COL FB, This is a tricky one,, hence me having it on the bubble,, there is too many eyes/Metrics/FBI watching for anything TOOO egregious to take place, therefore,,, we all knows a Dash of shenanigans happens,, but football within itself relies on 100 people for an outcome to change,

4. WNBA, Bitches Be Crazy,, any inconsistency here is due to their periods.

5. NBA, Muther effers dont gve a fk,,, that realm was always said to be IMPOSSIBLE to handicap, and it is,,, EVERY single metric I use counts for absolutely nothing, lol,, everyone comes up to 50%! You can only handicap NBA by being on the inside to know who is fkng whos bitch, or who owes who a favor? The game is so watered down, only the playoffs you can barely count on,,, how many here watch the playoffs and after the Best team goes up 2 wins?? what happens next? lol the team loses,, lol happens every year,, these guys want to be paid, so extending every series puts 10g in each player/coaches pocket,

6. NFL, I used to think the NFL did a pretty good job monitoring their game,,, the last 3 years has changed my mind,, the AMMOUNT of "come from behind" games,, being down 20 points+ that ive seen in the last 3-4 years is just sheer baffling,, the metrics I use show ZERO consistency here,,, (as of 2017) it did used to show some consistency,, the first 4-5 weeks of the season,, but this last 2 years its shown ZERO,,, none in beginning, middle or end,, or PLAYOFFS,,

dont take these complaints as anything other than my Museings on handicapping as a whole,,, its really been an eye opening last 2 years for me,,, helping me DEFINE who I am as a capper,, and when I need to pay attention,, and when I need to go to sleep,, Creating the construct by which you live your life,, and balance family is the most important struggle for everyone here.

WNBA hence why alot of people say it is one of the most beatable sports and I know there is still some corruption.

I said in another thread that everything and every business is shady as hell in this world. It's just the way it is. For everyone that appears on "American Greed" there are thousands who got away without a scratch...even some Enron people walked away with many millions and never served a day in jail.

All of this $$ that is used in the name of "cancer research" can't be legit. Probably a few at the top are millionaires many times over.

As for the NFL...

I remember when I was a little kid I found a stash of my big big brothers playboy magazines which he inherited from somewhere because they were older ones.
But there was a big article/story in there titled "NFL Games Are fixed".

I wish I could remember the details...

There isn't one.


MLB might not have the corruption from the top that the others do....but it sure does have more player corruption than anything else. Pine tar, corked bats, roids. So I don't really consider that an upgrade.


Umps in baseball can decide the game almost easier than any other sport, ask the Rangers in the WS vs the Cardinals. Just takes an incredibly home bias umpire behind the plate.

I guess if I had to pick it would be NHL, but I also don't know enough about it.

NBA is more clean now than it has ever been though. The history of it is the most corrupt though so maybe that's why it seems much cleaner now.

I used to think beyond doubt MLB was the most honest sport.. Then along came the drug issues for some of the games top stars and like Viejo Dinosaur says, I guess it's true. Baseball was the game I grew up along with my dad so it will remain my 1st love in sports.

i can't stand baseball as much as i love the sport. the strike zones are out of control anymore. pitching right down the middle are balls to some umps while balls at the letters are strikes

NHL.

MLB is rigged for totals with top pitchers.. winning or losing I don't think is as rigged as much except for when teams lose three in a row a lot of people hammer they won't lose four.

CBB is rigged for ranked teams etc as the games do not matter as much

NFL is very rigged especially in primetime games

College Football is rigged as well

NHL may be cleanest

It is easily the NHL.

The players have to give almost 100% effort every shift or they are exposed immediately and weeded out by the coaches and the culture.

The referrees are not really that much of a factor, and even if crooked couldn't really guarantee an outcome without being completely obvious.

Not a huge hockey fan, but I think you are spot on with this.
