WWE PERMEATES EVERY SPORT/SCRIPTED!!
Overwhelming evidence! TOO many Improbable comebacks...Teams play like champions one half and forget how the second half! Most games (especially the most relevant) are kept dramatic til final seconds so fans stay in there seats til the end. Networks have to have stories to tell each week. Stories (even made up ones to keep drama alive)...because it works best! If last years Super Bowl didn't stir any faith...nothing will. twkd and added 2 lines on 3/18 rearranged 3/5/23

Die! Or Die Resisting!
Our army will soon cover the valleys & scatter the mountain tops, let the stomping of the people & the hoofs from the herds of horses rumble out the last true sounds of freedom as the warriors scream & cry out CHARGE! To fight valiantly to the death with honor, dignity, passion & with NO FEAR in our hearts, FOR TONIGHT WE FIGHT FOR FATHER TIME & MOTHER NATURE TO ENSURE FATHERS LONG TICKING CLOCK DON'T STOP & MOTHERS COLORS, TREES & RIVERS ALWAYS NOURISH ON OUR WATCH!!! NO! NUCLEAR! BOMBS! Nothing will be left. No one will win anything. We would prove to fail our children...our fathers... Will we join the few worlds to explore space? Or will the new world order prove to destroy & erase our existence?
