If winning was important, players would need to try their best, bodily damaging themselves. Players may have shorter careers. Soccer clubs could become very rich or very poor depending on winning matches and ticket gate turnover. Corruption, damaging opposing players bodies to place players out of games. Spreading cold and flue viruses onto opposing teams days before matches.

Opposing clubs bribing opposing club players to play poorly at selective moments. Criminals bribing players to lose games or reduce final goal score to allow large gambling bets to win money. Contracts to play for different clubs once existing club contracts expire.

When everything is controlled by a single controlling entity, controlling who wins what matches, players are secure in a belief that careers will last longer and will not need to work too hard to maintain themselves as a professional soccer player. Professional players can have long running money earning careers, after realising once excepted into professional league, careers are not going to be cut short because better younger players from lower grade leagues, are at any time replacing players.

Horses are emotionally intelligent animals. Horses can be trained to do limited seemingly intelligent behaviours. Race horses could be trained to run down race tracks at differing speeds... run fast and really run really fast.

Horse races can end races with horse spread far apart from each other. Horse races can end races tightly packed together while crossing the finishing post, horse race organisers don't care who wins photo finish dramas.

Horse races last 50 metres to a finishing post has occasional horses speeding up, quickly passing several horse, has me wondering why a single horse can speed up at the very end of a race while other horses are not taking the hint to speed up as well.

Several horses in horse races often have the same trainer. I have heard a comment in an old British 1950s movie, said that 'betting on the jockey rather than the horse is a better idea'. Jockeys get to decide who wins horse races.

Stuarts inquires and exampling Fine Cotton scandal inquire are part of the propaganda of the divided up into many entities racing industry. Aided by transparency media and democracy looking after citizens interests governments.

The benefit to horses are that race horses aren't forced run at horses above capable of running fast limits.
Horses can be seen directly after races end, still running as though rest periods weren't required.

Some people so emotionally court up with horse racing, buy into a syndicate part ownership of a race horse. Around twenty years ago, I heard of an elderly man who was forced to sell his nicely positioned water front home, due to having had purchased a share in a racing horse syndicate, the horse failed to place earn and or win races. Horse training fees, food, stable shelter and I assume being unable to sell out of the syndicate, his contracted obligation to maintain a healthy horse was legally binding.

I could also formulate ideas that many syndicates after winning races, seen jumping for joy at broadcast television race course meetings, are set up by the establishment' front people. Syndicate horses allowed to win races in order to show that syndicates do win horse races and collect large sums of money. Syndicates not of the establishment rarely (if ever) win races.

I have never heard any television current affairs media stories of syndicated horse owners losing financial wealth and or becoming extremely wealthy from part horse ownership.

To repeat ideas that religion is about trickery, tricking people into parting with money, placed in situations natural selection wanting to be greedy sinful behaviours, punished for sinful behaviours by losing money. Catholic church confessions of sins, placing money in church poor box.

Christmas morning, Vatican ABC television broadcast of the pope performing mass showed a 'head full of hair' baby Jesus in a manger Nativity scene, Jesus in the company of animals' sheep and horned cow.
Jesus said to be god's sacrificial lamb, I believe a meaningful translation, referring back to the old testament, God told Abraham to sacrifice his first born son, Issac. God stopped Abraham at the last moment, replacing the sacrifice with a lamb or ram. Jesus is god's chosen one, Abraham's sacrifice to god, meaningful parable idea. Christian Church ideology.
The pope emphasizing the poverty of Jesus, that Jesus was so poor that Jesus was born in the company of animals, has hidden not very pleasant meanings that few people capable of thinking can conclude.

Even when people like myself bring such ideas to people's attention, most every person doesn't want to know. Even though the few people who acknowledge the idea, fear of learning, thinking about something new, prevents them from inquiring further. Which is why I am often criticising school education as the main cause of bad Homo-Sapien thinking skills.

Having mentioned how soccer game results can be altered, filling out soccer pools numbers. Filled out forms scanned and registered to a news agency location. A computer containing all number selections for unplayed soccer games can spit out a selection of number combinations, team soccer game recommendation win, loss and draw. Myself, Not saying and or have any evidence to say the above idea happens. Yet, I have argued soccer games suspect playing behaviours for entertainments reasons, why not for preventing large pay outs to working class winners.

Australian state Lotto number selection machines seems to me are ideal mechanical methods of introducing of selective numbered balls from the rear of a ball selecting machine. Studio switching cameras' close ups and overall machine images are ideal methods to manipulate numbered balls.
Numbered balls blowing inside a transparent ball, suddenly dropping into a funnel and or ball picking device with balls jamming, messing up the ball grabbing process. For a machine to select each numbered ball every time, 100% no failure rates on grabbing balls, seems impossible.
Magicians are credited with performing allusions. Lotto ball selection machines are an ideal way of preselecting numbered balls in order to prevent working class ticket holders from winning large sums of money.

Ideas and arguments that honest state government officials are overseeing the number picking process, are a joke.

Because believed ideas that few people want to advertise their winnings, there exists little evidence that many people have been winning large sums of money.
Occasionally media news reports that million dollar winners are slow to come forth to claim their winnings, doesn't prove there were any real million dollar winners.
Occasional people seen in other countries, winning record large amounts money doesn't mean such people were real winners. Winners seen on stage can be little more than acting out a performance for the establish to provide some evidence that real multi million dollar winners exist. Winners stating their lives won't change, that they're happy to pay off their children's mortgage loans.

Media transparency: political scandalous distractions; increasing road accident figure concerns; state governments ripping off city public transport replacement ticket, smart card holders; new futuristic cancer cures; etc. is the feel good confidence trick everyone loves to hear, allowing citizens to feel safe and secure that governments are looking after them. If things aren't as perfect as wanted, citizens will hear what's not working correctly.

As no media is pointing fingers at government run gambling. Distractions, government certified school education killing child curiosity, media rolled over ideas programs human behaviours not to doubt that there exists alternative motives.

Bad schooling education is bad because though children spend many hours over many years in schools. Not all children can read during early years of schooling. Many students aren't bothering (due to time limits) to comprehend what's being read. That what's being read is little more knowledgeable than television media stories.

Many teenagers leave school: angry; frustrated; suffering from mental depression; are prone to self-medicating alcoholism; on obtaining money through whatever means, buy to consume drugs of various types; are difficult to train new skills due to teenagers and adults applying years of subconscious mental stress reducing avoidance tactics, avoiding comprehending (thinking) what's learnt due to few items of information are worth comprehending and that increased mental stresses are felt.

When people say that spouses and or selective people “don't listen”. I blame (6 hour days) schooling's early childhood learning through to teenagers last days at school student needs to reduce mental stress using subconscious repression/avoidance tactics. People can't listen for more than a few seconds scanning their brain for compatible ideas, refusing to acknowledge anything that feels fearful.
The media's rolled over limited number of topics limits people's understanding to simple repetitive ideas: murders; political scandals; crime.
Many, I assume most people don't want to feel the torture of understanding unknown ideas. People show their reactions to new arguments by not listening, many people talking over as in blocking out other talkers.
Alcohol and or self-induced endorphins to aid daily mental stress work, used to listen to entertaining humorous comedians and or sitting in drunken groups of comical conversations, in need of laughter distractions.

School education represses real comprehending worth while understandings, so as to allow religious, corporate and government systems to keep populations unaware of: scams; media misdirection; saving money, delaying of spending money; trust and faith in something that looks at big picture ideas at the cost of individual rights.

Allowing people to believe people can win large sums of money, fulfilling people's dreams of freeing themselves from working class slavery, increases faith in believing money is not being scammed out of people's ownership.
