Wikipedia: National Football League
The National Football League (NFL) is a professional American football league consisting of 32 teams, divided equally between the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). The NFL is one of the four major North American professional sports leagues, the highest professional level of American football in the world, the wealthiest professional sport league by revenue, and the sport league with the most valuable teams. The NFL’s 17-week regular season runs from early September to late December, with each team playing 16 games and having one bye week. Following the conclusion of the regular season, seven teams from each conference (four division winners and three wild card teams) advance to the playoffs, a single-elimination tournament culminating in the Super Bowl, which is usually held on the first Sunday in February and is played between the champions of the NFC and AFC. The league is headquartered in Midtown Manhattan.

The National Football League has become the National Fixed League. It is to my regret that all sports in the USA have become an entity where making money is the biggest issue at the expense of the basic principles of honesty, integrity, and morality. The inconsistent penalty calling by the NFL refs, their obvious make-up calls, their non penalty calls on stars just because they are deemed as them, are all examples of this fact.

I naively thought NFL stood for National Football League. Obviously, it stands for National Fixed League.

PROOF Super Bowl 54 was RIGGED PART 2! National FIXED League is a JOKE! NFL SUBLIMINAL MESSAGING?

The NFL’s agenda was clear from the beginning of the 2019 Season. Make the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl Bowl LIV Champions, and make Patrick Mahomes Super Bowl MVP. The new face of the NFL by replacing Tom Brady. Bill Vinovich was named Super Bowl Referee, Despite Stain Of Infamous Missed Pass Interference In Saints-Rams helped rig the Super Bowl for the Chiefs, and rob the 49ers in the process.
