I present to you a rigged Week 17 result...

Why?

Because FOX Television tipped off the result of the Minnesota-Green Bay game two plays before Minnesota won it with a game-ending field goal, 37-34.

I was going to avoid the game, but, when I was out doing some screwing around, I saw the game on the outdoor screens at a restaurant.

Here's the situation:

34-34, inside of 40 seconds left.

Ball is at the Green Bay 38, 1st and 10 to Minnesota, who called their first time out.

FOX then does a Wild Card Weekend promo, a promo with the following four players:

Adrian Peterson
Aaron Rodgers
Tony Romo
Marshawn Lynch

Do I need go further?  Peterson, on the NEXT PLAY, busts it for 25, is carried off the field (9 yards short of the record!), field goal wins it, Packers-Vikings in Lambeau next week for the Wild Card.

(For the record, here's the problem:  Unless Minnesota beats Green Bay, neither Peterson (eliminated) nor Rodgers (Packers get the first-round bye) play Wild Card Weekend.  Romo is playing as I type.  As of posting, it's 7-7 with Washington, and Romo has two picks.)

Not convinced?  Let's back up a couple first downs...

Third and 11, inside the Minnesota 20 for the Vikings.

Christian Ponder goes back to pass.  Packers rush three and drop eight, which I already know is not going to end well.

Then, somehow, a Viking receiver breaks free to about midfield, with about a seven-yard cushion on EVERYBODY around him.  Catch, two feet, first down.

Tell me again the games aren't rigged -- I need a good laugh...
