Arian Foster 'revealed' how the NFL was 'scripted'

Ex-NFL star Arian Foster’s sarcastic explanation about how the league was "rigged" brought along some hilarious responses from his former colleagues on Wednesday.

The former star running back for the Houston Texans sarcastically talked about the NFL being rigged in the latest episode of the Barstool Sports podcast "Macrodosing."

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara, Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey and New England Patriots pass-rusher Matt Judon were among the NFL players to chime in.

Rigged election, why not rigged football games. If they can do it and get away with it, so can we. The NFL is no different than Pro Wrestling...

Rigged and scripted are not the same thing are they?

Those guys get paid a lot of money and often don’t have meaningful secondary incomes or skills so they can’t afford to go off script.

It is interesting that the only Team not owned by a Billionaire (or close to it) are the Green Bay Packers. 317,000 people own the Pack, I am one of them.

The NFL is a corrupt organization from top to bottom.

The sooner the world is rid of them the better.

How does that work? Always been curious about that.

Depends on what scripted means. A movie follows a script, so the end result is known all along, is it not?

They obviously want to make Mahones the next Super Bowl star. The game is completely rigged.

People don’t recognize satire anymore.

Sheeple aren’t discerning.

Mahomes is already a star. Why would they need to pump him up even more?

“Those guys get paid a lot of money and often don’t have meaningful secondary incomes or skills so they can’t afford to go off script.”

At their level of income Fed, State(s), local taxes are >45%.

BTW they have to pay state taxes in every state they play in.

Not a big star like Brady or Montana. You watch, they will rig the final drive just like the Cincy game. How many flags did they throw on that final drive to break the tie?

The Twitter thread is pretty funny.

https://twitter.com/PFTCommenter/status/1620482042902495234?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1620794161170636800%7Ctwgr%5E57afa84c92f166c2e3e7198fa98c75ce488fd33b%7Ctwcon%5Es3_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fsports%2Fnfl-players-reveal-reactions-scripts-given-walked-out-facility

The prevailing opinion seems to be that this is a joke.

While the Left is VERY motivated to rig elections, why would the $ Zillion cash cow NFL, teams, and players jeopardize their goose laying these golden eggs by cheating and “scripting”? Doesn’t make sense.

My take: “Everybody loves a conspiracy.”

I used to think that the Mob was involved due to the $$$$ from betting.

Probably the DeepState ran now with all the BLM, flag kneelers, Lqbxyz fag fest

Why wouldn’t they want to promote Jalen Hurts as a star?
