OK, fair warning, the link is from ESPN.
Dikembe Mutombo congratulates 76ers on lottery ... before it begins
"Yes, that's right -- the former All-Star center congratulated one of his former teams, the Philadelphia 76ers, on winning this year's lottery. The only problem? He sent out the tweet hours before the lottery was due to be held.
This crap in pro sports is really moving me closer to the breaking point."
If this isn't corruption it will do until real corruption comes along.
As corrupt as the NFL* is just be glad they haven't listen to the siren's call to institute a lottery yet. Currently the only way they can manipulate the results is to steal draft picks from the best team.
Imagine if the Celtics had gotten Tim Duncan instead of San Antonio, who wasn't really a bad team but had suffered through an injury-riddled down season.
