This is what inevitably happens when corporations/big money get its way in handling any competitive sport. It's naturally going to do whatever it can get away with to maximize profits and any notions of "competitive integrity" are, at best, just for show.
Sometimes a whistleblower will come forward like Tim Donaghy did in the NBA to confirm what we already suspected all along but what good does that do? Did the NBA stop making money as a result of that revelation?
Don't know but since that Kings Laker series in 02 I've watched only 1 game and that was the closing game for Boston in 08.
If there ever is a whistleblower ref for the NFL I'll burn my gear and say goodbye to the entire sport for good. I'm already on the edge as it with suspicion of the Patriots treatment over the last 8 years.
