My point is that you picked an uncommon occurrence as evidence that sports are just as covert as wall street. I then rebutted your argument by pointing out that injury reports are public. Do people violate the rules? Yes, just like people inside trade. The point is that you can’t factor in cheating if you are starting with the assumption of a fair system. If it was utterly corrupt it would fail. If everyone is playing by the rules of the SEC/NFL then predicting future performance is much easier in the latter for all the reasons I previously stated.
- ses1984 7y agoI don't think that occurrence is all that uncommon, there are plenty of variables in the NFL that are not regulated to be transparent, there are loads and loads of variables in sport, not just NFL, that are only known to insiders. Not every sport or league strives to be as transparent as the NFL.
