Any person on this board that believes any of the games are
fixed, should not be allowed on this site. Its ridiculous to even
think that. Yes during the strike and maybe some years after there
was game fixing, which led to even some players going to jail,
but today, give me a break.
To fix a jai alai game is nearly impossible for the following
reasons
1. 16 players in a game would all have to be on the same page.
2. The players manager or assistant is in the cage
3. It is impossible to bring in a number in exact order, impossible
4. The game would like absolutely look like a joke, no one
can drop the ball on purpose, and make it look normal, human error
would come in to play and eventually one or more points would
get messed up.
5. WHY?????? There is maybe 2000 dollars in the pool, with
most tri's paying 200 dollars on average i would say. So your
telling me that 16 players divide up the 200 dollars, that comes
out to a whopping 12.50 each, yeah that sounds worth it, when
ur risking your job in front of the manager, being caught would
not only see you lose your job possible arrested and possible
sent back to your country if your a foriegn player here on a visa.
There are a couple idiots that sit in the stands in every fronton
that always cry this is fixed, they are cry baby bettors, and
they still come back, but they hurt the game by spreading this
stupid lie that gives jai alai a bad name. When people are at
the fronton for the first time and they hear someone say this
is fixed then they get it in their head and dont return and that
hurts jai alai. Every jerk that says its fixed needs to try to
put on a basket, The pro players in every fronton are very good,
if you believe it or not, yes human error is involved and you
cant catch every ball but , ive seen major league shortstops boot
groundballs through their legs, and nba stars miss free throws,
but they also didnt have a basket strapped to their hand with
a couple inches to work with and a ball doing 120 mph.
This game is harder then other games very hard, i hear people
say golf is hard, but the ball is sitting on a tee, answer this
question how come a mlb pitcher can throw a fastball 100 mph on
one pitch and the next pitch 78 curveball and 40,000 people can
scream their heads off, but a guy hitting a little ball on a tee
needs complete silence lol, but that discussion is for another
time.
Heres a better one, i see guys in frontons that i know play
amatuer jai alai and they cant catch two balls in a row, throw
a rebote, or hit the front wall from the 10 line, but they sit
there and yell at the pros, have some damn respect and take a
look at how these other guys, human just like you, can do something
that you cant, appreciate it and respect it.
No Jai alai games are fixed in this day and age, get a life
and stop watching if you think so
