Here comes the money

3 GiG Sports

Welcome to 3GiG Sports!

Money and sports, what do the two have in common? Well, obviously professional athletes make a good living no matter the sport. Typically organizations make quite a bit of money off of advertisements and even gambling. But, is money starting to have too big of an impact on competition?

Two examples we bring up tonight are from two completely different sports. First we talk boxing. Nganu vs Wilder, obviously just a spectacle right? How could this possibly even end up as a close fight? As you probably have already heard, it sure was. With many people saying Nganu got the better of Wilder regardless of the result. But why?

Then we talk Vikings vs 49ers last Monday night. The 49ers have the better overall team, coach, and arguably every position on the field. Roughly 94% of bets were placed on the 49ers to win. Imagine the loss vegas would take if the 49ers ended up winning. But that had nothing to do with the outcome right? There can't possibly be any other indications of changing games due to gambling...right?

Other than that we get into our picks for the weekend, Rio's Rangers taking game 1 of the World Series, and a slew of conspiracies and wild stories. Tune in for a good time and some unique education!
