The phrase meaning nothing is the biggest square statement anyone can make
its laughable
Coaches and players jobs online
Players any level do not go on field and try to lose or not try lol
look at all bowl games teams acting like they won title after game
Athletes great competitors
Gamblers lol broke idiots
Some players actually care - stars though know their contracts are guaranteed and jobs secure.
Coaches pretty much the same - some guys hoping a decent showing saves their job (Stefanski
in Cleveland) - but overall some guys know it’s over end of year and others know they are going nowhere no matter what happens.
Great competitors - no - they are human - just like
gamblers. Some do it because they need the money, some because they enjoy it and a few just because they know nothing else.
NFL of late has made a lot of gamblers look smarter than they are - it’s bound to change. Just like these bowl games made alot of “wise” guys look dumb - last 2 weeks of NFL and wild card weekend will probably do the same to some
gamblers.
