People who watch the NFL and think it's a legit sport = WWE fans

This has been covered so many times already. You're not guaranteed shite besides your seats you purchased to the game.
The NFL has stated this many times. How old were you when you found out the WWF (now WWE) was scripted? Once I found out as a teen I quit watching. Some people still enjoy watching. NBD to me as long as they know it's fake.

you can read it for yourself.
Since you probably won’t, here’s the tl;dr:
The NFL argued, and the court agreed, that people who buy tickets to an NFL game have the contractual right to a seat to watch two teams play each other, and nothing else.
The court even quoted Mayer’s ticket stub, which reads: “This ticket only grants entry into the stadium and a spectator seat for the specified NFL game.” (emphasis added) If the Patriots cheated to win that game, well, tough. Legally extrapolate that and it means: If any NFL outcome is fixed, well, tough. Also in 2010, in a separate court case against the NFL over branded items like hats and shirts, the league presented itself not as 32 separate teams, but as one singular business “unit in the entertainment marketplace.” Throughout that case, the NFL repeatedly positioned itself legally as a “sports entertainment” business, not a genuinely contested “sport.” College football, for example, is legally classified as a “collegiate sport.” The only other “sports entertainment” businesses are professional wrestling and roller derby.

False: WWE fans know it’s fake, but don’t care because the drama and acrobatics are still entertaining. That flag fest trotted out on Sundays isn’t near as fun.

I'm a fan just like WWE fans. I know it's all fake but I like watching.

WWE doesn’t market itself as real. There is no massive industry of betting on the outcomes of WWE matches.
The issue is that the NFL is misrepresenting itself, not that it’s fake. It’s never the action, but the hypocrisy.

Hey man, I'm just pointing out what others already know. If you're stupid enough to gamble on this crap then that's on you. I don't care if the NFL categorized themselves as entertainment just to keep from getting sued. They are what they are and people who don't know need to know because the NFL aren't just going to come out in a commercial one day and tell everyone that they are fake.

People can make their own decisions of what they do or dont want to watch without people like you holding their hands.

The NFL is professional wrestling for people who think they are too smart to watch professional wrestling.
