Most pro sports and even some amateur sports appear fixed these days. I'll still watch, because I enjoy sports, but I would much prefer clean sports, where athletes compete honestly, and integrity and sportsmanship are more important than making money for the individual greedy owners and players.

You have no clue what you speaking about. Fighting majors was down 30 percent this year. 20% last year. Powerplays are too good, instigation rules are up. New rule that instigation of a fight in last 5 min of game is a 1 game suspension. Hockey is the fastest, most hard hitting sport around.
