Come one, come all

It took Bokolis a good while to work up the momentum to key out this bullshit.

We were dragged through the mud with those college football playoffs, complete with a made-on-tv final.

Then we had a college basketball playoff loaded up on SEC and Big 10 teams.  They only let in three Big East teams and stuck St. Johns in the same region as UConn while managing to space out all the SEC teams- NCAA still fucking Pitino for Louisville.

UConn almost stole that tournament after exploding heads against Duke and defeating Jugoplastika.  That Michigan team was serious business.

Bokolis was fine to ignore the NBA playoffs, as I have been for like 25 years, but my friends were non-stop about the Knicks.  They were keeping quiet while the Knicks lost two one-point games to the Hawks.  But, with that steamrollering in the closeout game, there was no more escaping it in the group texts.

More steamrollering happened.  The 76ers played magically well to come back against Boston, then short circuited against the Knicks.  The Cavaliers did the same.  Everybody told Bokolis that the Spurs were a different story.

So Bokolis played along...okay, this is going to be a proper struggle.  Game one, got home when they were down 63-51.  All I saw was another steamrollering and proclaimed this would be over in four games.

Game two was setting up to be another steamrollering- that is, until the referees got involved.  They didn't quite finish the job in game two, but they did in game three.  This was the type of shit being alleged back in the 1990s and 2000s- the refs helping massage an outcome- shamelessly out in the open.  Only now they have video review, in case they fuck it up the first time.

It left Bokolis gaslighting myself.  I'm not seeing what I think I'm seeing, no way.  Fans not making much of a fuss- if you'll pay $10k-$20k, there's a lot else you will take sitting down- while Bokolis waiting for them to bumrush.  The broadcast and talking heads are ignoring it.

By game four, you could see it was affecting the Knicks' play.  It went on that way until they decided, you know what- now let's throw some calls the Knicks' way.

Just because the good guys won, doesn't mean that we've forgotten it was staged.  Bokolis told my friends that I am now forever done with the NBA.  The Knicks paid back my childhood.

On the subject of staged, that was just a lead-in for the World Cup.  Talk about staged!  This was a straight-up carnival.

All that corruption Blatter did, and then some, is now done right out in the open.  Remember when Infantino was supposed to be the antidote to Blatter?

The first red flag was the 48 teams, with Asia and Africa getting the bump while Europe got the bozack.  Pandering is how Infantino gets elected.  Shit will come out about Morocco soon enough.

The bigger red flag was the rigging of the draw to keep Argentina, England, France and Spain away from one another until the semi-finals.  It made you think, what else are they going to have to do to make that happen?  The complicit media acted surprised when that turned out to be the last four.

Bokolis has been ranting to my friends for years that the WC is now a sham, nothing but a carnival.  The rigged draw turned on the Europeans to this, and, of course, they dismissively decided that, it's only rigged because its in the USA.  It's that lack of deodorant that's not allowing them to smell the shit in which they stand.

Too much was made of that suspension of the Balogun red card.  It's not like they did this for Poof-nal...oh, wait.  Anyway, Balogun is not an impact player, and the USA side, no matter how much Kool-Aid was drank- was last-16 (and that's what they got).  Fer fooks sake, Tim Ream got done twice by the biggest pussy in football, getting dumped on his face the second time.

Such outrage on Balogun, yet Fixing It For Argentina...

VARgentina was UEFAlona all over again.

It isn't outrageous that it happened- it's been happening all along.  It's outrageous how blatant and shameless it is.

This is how Infantino could have his balls big enough to proclaim that he was going to farm out future world cups to private enterprise, with the biggest backer being Trump's son-in-law's brother.  Now, you understand why they were exceptionally cozy.  He didn't even get as far as the superleague cunts.

It's all further evidence that it is no longer sport, it is show business.  Bokolis has been saying this pretty much since I found out pro wrestling is staged.  It saddened me that, with this latest show, my friends, who humor but don't accept my madness, realized it, too.
