Also

>The organizers of the tournament imposed a rule requiring all matches to have a winner and had chosen an unusual variant of the golden goal rule, which meant that the first goal scored in extra-time not only won the match, but also counted as double. Barbados started the match needing to win by a margin of at least two goals to qualify for the final tournament. When Grenada scored late in normal time to bring the scoreline to 2−1, Barbados deliberately scored an own goal to force extra-time, where they could get the two-goal winning margin they needed thanks to the unconventional golden goal rule.

>This meant that for the last 7 minutes of the match, Grenada was trying to score on either their own goal, or the Barbados goal, as either outcome (either 3–2 or 2–3) would have advanced them to the finals.

there is zero doubt in my mind that this was rigged. The Kings v Nets would have been an incredibly boring finals with low viewership. The NBA realised this and stepped in.

First one that pops to mind is when the Russians bribed that French judge for the 2002 Olympic Figure Skating gold. I know, it's completely unprecedented. Russians cheating and the French taking bribes? Who would have thought?

Dirk deserves 2 rings dammit

I don't know why people talk so much about the 2002 WC, since the most benfited "people", worst Korea, didn't actually won.

still mad after all these years. You do realize those were all correct calls, right. Learn the rules.

most recent NFL is the meme Foles play in the Owl. 2 obvious non-calls. didn't matter to outcome (unless pats pick 6'd the next play lol), but Jesus, you have to be kidding me. sanctioned ref ball. Also hilarious because ppl will defend refball just because it happened to the pats, comical

>t. booty blasted Pats "fan"

how about just plain bad calls?

The KHL is literally rigged for Putin's favorite team (SKA) to win because it's an election year for him, they're 6 times over the roster cap

Roy Jones at the Olympics.
Or any number of boxing fights over the years. In most sports the refs can aid one team with favourable decisions. In boxing they can literally decide the outcome.

The umpire apologized pretty emphatically for that though. That counts for something. Most times you don't hear a referee or umpire address their mistakes at all, let alone admit to them and say they're sorry.

Tuck Rule. NFL network did a documentary about it and you'd have to be a die hard tom Brady loving Bostonian to not see how rigged that was.

Not refball, but blatant cheating and corruption:

>Russia in Sochi
>Awarding Russia the world cup
>Awarding FUCKING QATAR the world cup

What makes these so bad is the shameless involvement of their governments and the fact that they are going to get away with handing the world cups to these shitholes.

you still mad buffabitch?

Bills made the playoffs for the first time since I was 12. I can't be happier, but the sabres are still hot trash and I can't be assed to even give a shit about them desu.

Which is a bummer because it was so bad that people forget that 2001 had it too, and we were robbed of Pippen having more rings than Jordan

The worst part is he realized the mistake literally a second later but "oh i moved my hands outward already so it's official for all of time"

I had a peruvian roommate and we were watching his soccer team Alianza Lima in like 2010

>home team scores game winning goal in extra time
>ref calls offsides
>home team coach comes over and talks to ref for like 2 minutes
>ref says lolnevermind, its a goal
>visiting team surrounds refs all screaming and pissed off
>riot shield police surround refs from visiting team
>game over

I heard an interview where he said that he thought he had the call right until after the game when he had the replay room play it back for him.

So Greece but angry coaches instead of gun-toting Russian mafiosos?

was he, dare i say it, elite???

1966 World Cup final
Oh and Tuck Rule game

The most egregious instance of refball in history pales in comparison to the most egregious screwball in history, J.K. Rowling, and her role in creating one of the dullest franchises in history. Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

It's not about winning, it's about eliminating great teams that could've possibly played Brazil in the final instead of watching a weak Germany nearly get raped if not for Kahn. It made it slightly better that Turkey out of fucking nowhere shit on the gooks.

At least Russia does have a football tradition. If South Africa and Brazil could organise a world cup, Russia can. Qatar is a complete disgrace.

butthurt italians and spaniards complaining about losing to south korea in close games where ~1 call went against them.

source: rewatched the games last year because of all the whining. There was one shit call where the ref carded an italian for diving when he actually, for once, wasnt diving. That's it. That is literally it.

Not even a basketball fan but game 4 of last year's finals was rigged to shit. Golden State was called for so many dumb fouls and it was all so LeBron could win one last game in front of his home fans. Fucking joke refs even gave the same player 3 fouls which meant he should have been kicked out but they convienatly forgot about that rule and let him play regardless. NBA reffing has always been shit but my god that was a new low for them

DISGRACEFUL!

Whats up with South Korea and cheating? Searching this gets ton of sports and a lot of angry comments from other asian countries.
