My favorite December 29th, 2002. Former Broncos coach Dan Reeves is coaching the Falcons and they are down by 8 to the Browns in the last game of the regular season. As they begin their final drive, the stadium PA announces the Saints lost, assuring the Falcons of going to the playoffs. The Falcons no longer need to win to get in, and win or lose, their seed will not change. They drive to the CLE 4 yard line, where they have a Dunn run up the middle for 3 yards, then from the CLE 1 they go incomplete pass, rush for no gain, rush for no gain, turnover on downs. These were half hearted attempts at best from the Falcons, who had the 5th best offense in the league that year and the 4th best rushing offense. Not to take anything away from the Browns, they were solid on defense, but watching it live, there was lackluster effort, just two straight Warrick Dunn runs up the middle. The Browns win and claim the final spot in the AFC playoffs, eliminating Denver. To this day, I'm convinced Dan Reeves heard that PA announcement, knew they had nothing to play for, and a Browns win would eliminate Denver and intentionally lost the game to screw Denver.
Honorable mention (could be a video by itself): Michael Jordan’s first retirement wasn’t a retirement; he was serving a suspension for his gambling habits. Imagine if Jordan was caught gambling on NBA games. The publicity of having the face of basketball caught gambling would have destroyed the image of the league. Again, I could also be completely wrong for believing this.
When you think about how competitive Michael Jordan is, retiring in his prime does seem strange. There is also the theory that James Jordan's murder was possibly related to Michael's gambling, which is almost more plausible because of the random chance that a carjacking and murder at a highway rest stop would be the father of the most famous athlete in the world. The best evidence against it is that it was done by two teenagers, who are notoriously bad at keeping secrets (one of the most important rules, according to the Crime In Sports podcast, is don't have a teenager in your murder squad), and neither one has talked in hopes of getting a better deal.
@@8bitorgy as in the murder caused his early retirement and his trip into minor league baseball to honor his dad, like what happened, or as in MJ had his dad murdered because he was gambling and he only got suspended but the NBA covered it up?
Conspiracy: Tom Brady has been sent by the Monstars Football team and Patrick Mahomes has to stop Brady from getting 10 rings or the earth will be destroyed
How about this, I don't know what year it was, but the Canucks were 3-0 up on the Bruins during the Stanley cup finals. Only to have Boston ripped off 4 straight to claim the Cup. The US seemingly want to keep Canada from winning it.
He might’ve wanted to focus on more interesting theories less people know about, rather than commonly discussed topics among fans. Or maybe 5points has been informed he’d have an “accident” if he discussed it. But that’s just a theory. A conspiracy theory.
@@ianmudd1383 nah Cleveland getting the queen was the ultimate fix. You mean basketball Jesus is gonna play 20 mins from his hometown? Oh word I feel you.
Never thought about it, but it makes sense. Win & you look stupid for leaving a team right before they potentially win the National Championship. However, lose a big game you were heavily favored to win over your rival, & fans are outraged that you just blew a chance at a Natty to Pitt. They riot, & you can now blame their behavior for your exodus & look like the good guy.
There's actually six things that are common in life: Death, taxes, conspiracy theories, the Falcons choking, Big Ben not taking "No" for an answer, and LOLMets running wild through Citi Field.
Coach Pop went for that anime strategy of their weakness being so obvious it’s in their name. That or the AC that night was being maintained by Bob Oso
I've got a good one. In 1988 the Saitama Lions and Osaka Buffaloes were in a dead heat for the Pacific League pennant. Out of the blue, the Buffaloes best hitter, Dick Davis, gets raided by the police and they found 8-10 grams of weed in his condo, and he's subsequently deported. Most Buffaloes fans feel the Davis wouldn't have been stupid enough to bring weed into Japan, seeing as he'd been there for 4 years up to that point. Most point to the Lions, or a Lions fan, planting the weed on him
State farm curse for Rodgers not making it to the superbowl in 21 after the MVP season also Pat maholmes losing in the super bowl that year and then Chris Paul losing in the finals this year all these commercials played when they were about to get the W but ended up on the losing end.
Figured you would throw in some lights going out at half time of the Super Bowl. Or Refs being from LA so they “missed” the passer interference on the the Rams. You may have to do a video for each major sports League.
When I saw this video I said if the Cal story isn't in there it's not officially a conspiracy video. There's also the lights out on the Ravens Superbowl game but the good guys won anyhow. Good video ✊🏾
Nothing about deflate gate? Nothing about the Patriots? No Brady quarrels? How can we have a conspiracy video without the Holy Grail of teams to have them??
@@Dexter037S4 didn’t say I believe it, just that it was common and had some good grounds. Had the Sens minor league team in my hometown for a long time, got to watch some of those high picks like Spezza
This one gets long and ties to events several years later. The 1994 strike was more to protect Roger Maris’s single season home run mark. Several players that year were in contention to come close to or surpass that mark. End result, attendance is down horrifically across the league (paid attendance at a White Sox game in the 1995 season was under 4000, as an example). 1998 season rolls along, attendance still sucks, except for Cardinals and Cubs home games and wherever those 2 teams were playing on the road. Sosa & McGwire chasing Maris. Baseball notices this and in an effort to save the sport, turns a blind eye to steroids, giving birth to the Long Ball Era, also known as the “almost no one gets into the hall of fame from that era”. Also of note for the strike season, that was the last, best chance to ever see someone hit .400 as Tony Gwynn was hitting .393 at the time of the strike.
They turned a blind eye to it before that. It makes no sense that they would want to "protect" the record in 1994 but then four years later just decide to let it be broken. You forget that Griffey and McGwire had monster 50-homer seasons the year before the big chase.
That always interest me since something must of happened at that time to force him to quit. He really should of never won the championship since in the term of phrase he should of been a "2nd driver" but to come out and beat Hamilton and walk from F1. The other outcome why I think he walked Hamilton had it in his contract saying I am the number 1 driver at all times and said he would leave if Rosberg does not go. Causes like that is not outside the realm of possibilities you had the Prost Senna one in the past. Also Mercedes after that hire Bottas who never really challenged Hamilton at all during his time he been the really also says a lot and the way the called him a "Wing man".
The NHL was hellbent on stopping the Penguins from leaving. As someone who lives in KC, I was pissed at the time because there was a real chance that they would come here.
If you ever do a sequel I think talking about Super Bowl XL being rigged in the Steelers favor would be a good topic. The offensive pass interfere on Seattle still boggles mind.
@@fpjrzman between 1926 and 1993 of the 67 scf series 15 held 2 American teams. During that same span 8 series included only Canadian teams. These 67 years include 22 Stanley cup victories for the Montreal Canadians in 29 finals appearances. For the leafs? 11 cups in 19 appearances. The Canadian teams had a documented history of dominance up until the past quarter century. Obviously expansion is going to even the playing field, that’s kinda just how things work
@@richardtherichard26 this was also just as Gary Bettman took charge of the league, and was aggressively looking at American TV contracts. An all-Canadian Final had the potential to be a ratings nightmare, and to be avoided at all costs
For the last one. So the bug and bat infested arena that is notorious for being old and worn down has, after hosting a fair and rodeo the entirety of the previous week has a equipment breakdown. And the equipment happens to be the A.C while they are playing a dominant player that suffers from the cramps. The previous year it took 7 games for the Heat to win including some ridiculous Ray Allen shots to do so.
In the sports wagering forums, it seems so many think the NBA is rigged. All games are predetermined to award the win to teams that create rating, or its all fixed for sake of the sportsbooks so they can clean up. It's laughable. The fact is that this sport (as well as NFL) by its very nature will often reduce a large lead down to a more manageable lead in the 4th quarter. It makes sense if you think about it. A team that is down points with 8 mins to go can drive strong and likely not get fouled. Leads are drawn down consistently in the 4th quarter. Same goes for football for different reasons. As we know any defense is willing to trade a field goal (and sometimes a TD) for minutes off the clock and they can do that by playing prevent defense. In either case its no conspiracy, its the nature of the game. In the NBA the coach himself can help matters by NOT calling timeouts and stopping the action. But these guys like the camera time showing them drawing up a play, coaches have massive egos. The better coaches will just let the game play out.
I've heard that sometimes if Henrik got kicked out of the faceoff circle he and Daniel would skate around and make it look like they switched but Henrik would still take the draw. I'm sure that would only work for awhile before the refs would catch on though 😂
In 2010, Lebron realized that the only way he was ever going to win a title in Cleveland is if they tanked and got some #1 draft picks. But he wasn’t going to waste the prime of his career... so he let them tank while he went to Miami. Then returned to a stacked team in Cleveland.

As a wizards fan i would've believed the Morris conspiracy completely, but someone already did a breakdown of their tattoos debunking the video. Would've been crazy though
I remember a Syracuse/Florida State game in the Carrier Dome that was unusually hot. Didn’t help seeing as the visiting team was from Florida and the home team Central NY
Another theory: The refs have a grudge against Sean Payton because of the Bountygate scandal, and thus, the brunt of missed calls in Saints games come against him.
how about Motorsports Conspiracies? it is said that Dale Earnhardt Jr. got extra horsepower at the 2001 Pepsi 400 at daytona, after his fathers passing there in Febuary, and how Nascar wanted to stage a finish so they could get more attention. it falls apart for 2 reasons. 1 is that one of the drivers brought up the extra horsepower conspiracy, so if it was scripted, why would the drivers think it was rigged if they “knew” it was scripted 2. DEI’s dominance at the plate races between 2001-2004. of the 16 races they had, the DEI duo of Dale Jr. and Michael Waltrip won 11 of them.
MLB hated Montreal (not Canada specifically) because it had never been lucractive and wanted its best chance at a championship (to that point in its existence) dead. I'm skeptical of it myself but it's not coincidence that 1994 was their last great season before they almost folded.
Don't forget the owner of the Expos at the time didn't want to pay those players either. Most were even willing to take a pay cut to come back. He also traded to the team to get the Marlins right before their first win. Conspiracy or not, he was a dick and the reason they sucked after that season.
@@robertmcconkey1230 Good point, obligatory "fuck Loria". Once a scumbag, always a scumbag. (As a Red Sox fan, though, thanks for Pedro for Carl Pavano and Tony Armas lol.)
The Morris conspiracy was debunked. One of their tattoos is slightly different and can be confirmed in the video of the game. I think Korzemba did the video.
Braves players SWEAR rhe Twins had the A/C on when they were hitting and it off when the Braves were hitting in 91. Every single player swears it is true.
I'm a sucker for bizarre conspiracy theories. It's like this weird logic that is somehow created to be internally consistent with itself, like it's own indestructible bubble. Anything that proves it wrong is actually evidence that it is right, in the eyes of the theorist. I find it really fascinating. The whole "that's what they want you to believe" thing.
Its like being disgusted with a defense lawyer’s outlandish alibi but also being impressed someone could concoct a semi-believable story out of pure bs.
You forgot the lights going out at the Ravens vs. 49ers Super Bowl or the head ref from "the Tuck Rule" game being good friends with Tom Brady's father or Michael Jordan's first retirement actually being because he got suspended for gambling on basketball games.
Don't forget in the most recent SB, the female ref named her son after Brady. That game was so poorly officiated you had everyone from Darius Leonard to Phil Simms to Terry McCaulay saying this was fucked up.
sports is woven so deep into our culture, not just the USA even that there is probably enough conspiracy for multiple xfiles seasons alone. While not a conspiracy, its like the Curse of the Bambino is in some cases said in the same tone as talking about those of King Tut. Admittedly the bambino curse was technically broken in I believe 2004.
Funny to learn about the Ripken/Costner story after the Field of Dreams game...... *2 hours later* INSANE SPORTS CONSPIRACY THEORIES PART 2 IS COMING UP RIGHT AFTER THIS

Imagine playing a sport like basketball where you primarily play pickup games outside in the sun and then complaining that the arena is too hot for you. Hmm maybe PED's cause cramps in warmer weather
Urban Meyer threw the 2015 game vs MSU so he could help propel MSU to the CFP, increasing the pain on Michigan fans that not one, but two of their biggest rivals made the first 2 CFPs, installing doubt early on with the legacy of Harbaugh. The NCAA also rigged the 2019 tournament for UVA because they needed Tony Bennett to become the face of coaching college hoops in the 2020s, in anticipation of Mike Krzyzewski and Roy Williams retiring, before his legacy could be tainted as being a choker

Uh, maybe don't leave Kevin Costner home alone with your wife......
Imagine paying all that money for finals tickets to only be sweating your ass off in 90 degrees
Sarah Thomas favoring the Bucs in the Super Bowl. She literally named her son after Brady and that game was so poorly officiated it wasn't even funny.
I remember a Syracuse/Florida State game in the Carrier Dome that was unusually hot. Didn’t help seeing as the visiting team was from Florida and the home team Central NY
Lol good video 5 points, I've never heard of most of these
5points with the fire per usual
The old Boston Garden was worse...Thats a old Red Auerbach trick. Kareem sucking the oxygen tank in '84' plus Pop is a old school coach
Here is a conspiracy:
Sean McVay pays refs.
Another theory: The refs have a grudge against Sean Payton because of the Bountygate scandal, and thus, the brunt of missed calls in Saints games come against him.
The conspiracy about the Cleveland Cavaliers getting those number one picks after Lebron left is pretty intriguing
how about Motorsports Conspiracies?
it is said that Dale Earnhardt Jr. got extra horsepower at the 2001 Pepsi 400 at daytona, after his fathers passing there in Febuary, and how Nascar wanted to stage a finish so they could get more attention.
it falls apart for 2 reasons. 1 is that one of the drivers brought up the extra horsepower conspiracy, so if it was scripted, why would the drivers think it was rigged if they “knew” it was scripted
2. DEI’s dominance at the plate races between 2001-2004. of the 16 races they had, the DEI duo of Dale Jr. and Michael Waltrip won 11 of them.
MLB hated Montreal (not Canada specifically) because it had never been lucractive and wanted its best chance at a championship (to that point in its existence) dead. I'm skeptical of it myself but it's not coincidence that 1994 was their last great season before they almost folded.
Don't forget the owner of the Expos at the time didn't want to pay those players either. Most were even willing to take a pay cut to come back. He also traded to the team to get the Marlins right before their first win. Conspiracy or not, he was a dick and the reason they sucked after that season.
@@robertmcconkey1230 Good point, obligatory "fuck Loria". Once a scumbag, always a scumbag. (As a Red Sox fan, though, thanks for Pedro for Carl Pavano and Tony Armas lol.)
The ownership situation was lousy. That's why Marquis Grissom was traded to Atlanta for mid-tier talent.
The Morris conspiracy was debunked. One of their tattoos is slightly different and can be confirmed in the video of the game. I think Korzemba did the video.
Adam do you know about gematria?
Looks like we got the answer to how a small French man and the BFG won all those Championships
extra inch?
@3:57
...those are centimeters
Braves players SWEAR rhe Twins had the A/C on when they were hitting and it off when the Braves were hitting in 91. Every single player swears it is true.
If a horse is a horse, of course of course, then WHY THE HECK does it matter??
I'm a sucker for bizarre conspiracy theories. It's like this weird logic that is somehow created to be internally consistent with itself, like it's own indestructible bubble. Anything that proves it wrong is actually evidence that it is right, in the eyes of the theorist. I find it really fascinating. The whole "that's what they want you to believe" thing.
Its like being disgusted with a defense lawyer’s outlandish alibi but also being impressed someone could concoct a semi-believable story out of pure bs.
@@FivePointsVids lol yes, something like that.
Sure, Gar! You WERE an excellent horse!
You forgot the lights going out at the Ravens vs. 49ers Super Bowl or the head ref from "the Tuck Rule" game being good friends with Tom Brady's father or Michael Jordan's first retirement actually being because he got suspended for gambling on basketball games.
Don't forget in the most recent SB, the female ref named her son after Brady. That game was so poorly officiated you had everyone from Darius Leonard to Phil Simms to Terry McCaulay saying this was fucked up.
sports is woven so deep into our culture, not just the USA even that there is probably enough conspiracy for multiple xfiles seasons alone. While not a conspiracy, its like the Curse of the Bambino is in some cases said in the same tone as talking about those of King Tut. Admittedly the bambino curse was technically broken in I believe 2004.
Funny to learn about the Ripken/Costner story after the Field of Dreams game......
*2 hours later*
INSANE SPORTS CONSPIRACY THEORIES PART 2 IS COMING UP RIGHT AFTER THIS
The only taken identity I have concrens about is the mustached man that Bobby Valentine took from.
The breaking of the San Antonio ac doesn't really expose the spurs it exposes lebron lebron was the only player on the floor who got cramps yet no one said anything as to why he was the only one who did
Btw, if you kidnap a horse and DONT get the ransom? Now your ass is on the hook to house and take care of a horse. Thats expensive as shit. Though I suppose "just kill it" was the option they took her
Always finding an original topic. Clap-Clap.
10:50 good fucking lord that was some blatantly horrible traveling.
LMAO!! That was like 4 steps and a stutter!!
You should include UFC in these videos
Never expected to see a story from my fair nation on an FPV vid, its common knowledge here that when the IRA knew they werent going to get any money for shergar they sent him to the big glue factory in the sky
Weren't the Expos declared the World Series Champions in 1994.
Paul pierce shat himself
Eagles fans booed and snowballed Santa bc they found out the man in the suit and beard at the stadium was an imposter.
Imagine playing a sport like basketball where you primarily play pickup games outside in the sun and then complaining that the arena is too hot for you. Hmm maybe PED's cause cramps in warmer weather
Most NBA players are YEARS removed from playing outside
Biggest sport conspiracy: LOLMETS leading the NL East in the 1st half
They got the same tats? That’s ridiculous.
At least there weren’t any big ol’ women in the San Antonio locker room. Scary
no one will ever know i'm eating three ham sandwiches
@Lucien Hicks no one will ever know
Urban Meyer threw the 2015 game vs MSU so he could help propel MSU to the CFP, increasing the pain on Michigan fans that not one, but two of their biggest rivals made the first 2 CFPs, installing doubt early on with the legacy of Harbaugh.
The NCAA also rigged the 2019 tournament for UVA because they needed Tony Bennett to become the face of coaching college hoops in the 2020s, in anticipation of Mike Krzyzewski and Roy Williams retiring, before his legacy could be tainted as being a choker
The Urban Meyer one is believable but the second one you've state sounds like B.S.
These two even have identical INK
Goodell turned off the lights
