it's the officials that are "greased" but even more than that, it's how the teams are divided, it's rigged at the corporate level, they decide who which team will win the big game, and they manipulate, and direct the outcome of the season with fake scandals, and injuries tipping the odds in favor of a particular team, all the owners are in on it, it's just entertainment, but most of the players are not in on it, because they need them to play their hearts out!
