Percentage of Overall Fan Tweets About The NFL Being "Scripted," "Fixed," or "Rigged"

Some of you are easily riled up by dumb clickbait.

We have more fans than many teams combined, so of course we're going to be at the top of any list of fan responses.

They could flip the study and calculate the fans that didn't think the NFL was scripted. Do you know what fanbase would be a the top of that list?

Just more proof we have the dumbest fans. There’s been countless threads started here by fans claiming the league is fixed and is biased against the Cowboys. Don’t know why they even bother to watch the game if they believe that.

I think a lot of it probably has to do with recency of perceived bad calls. Had the stats been counted after a convincing Cowboys win, especially if our opponent had some bad calls against them, I'm sure the graph would look different.

This would mean something if it were the % of that teams fan tweets that were about it...Cowboys probably double the next fan base in tweets which would make their "Scripted" tweets the biggest % of nfl scripted tweets.

Valid point.

The Patriots...No wait, Patriots fans are absolutely fickle morons.

This is what I was trying to post earlier. Embarrassing.

That you couldn't figure out how to do it?

You'd think if it was scripted, the league would make a lot more money having their premier team being a lot more competitive

Ridiculous to think so

All of it has to do with officiating calls that were bad or perceived to be bad. Fans see a bad call and think it was intentional. You have idiots who think officiating crews are being paid off to alter games, especially against the Cowboys. It’s pure lunacy! There’s a lot of things some fans believe that make you start questioning their sanity.
