[QUOTE="Crow Terminator, post: 5863998, member: 220"] If you got up to the higher tiers of the games, there's probably scripting/manipulation in a little bit of everything. It's entertainment...just like a movie or show. And with billions of dollars flowing around. Teams get paid to win and paid to lose. I was a huge NASCAR fan until I picked up on them doing one too many "Cinderella story book endings" to every tragic occasion. Example...the fill in driver Kevin Harvick win at Atlanta immediately following the death of Earnhardt, driving for the Earnhardt team and crew...photo finishing at the end just like Earnhardt had the year prior. Holding the #3 out the window....that kinda stuff. How many other fill in drivers have won a race that you can think of....let alone, under those conditions. It was rather touching and what the nascar world needed and tugged at the heart strings/emotions. Exactly part of what entertainment is supposed to do. [/QUOTE]
