Maybe the greatest essay every written about sports conspiracy theories. Patrick Hruby covers everything from the 1985 NBA draft lottery to Dale Earnhardt’s 2001 Daytona victory. (And lots more.) It’s an epic piece, amply foot-noted. High-level awesome.

    Awesome article but Yahoo bungled the CSS presentation.

    Using Chrome right-click on the sidebar -> Inspect element -> click to highlight “div.content-right” from bottom row -> press Del key

    What I’ve thought since I was twelve. All stick and ball sports are fixed. Growing up in Jersey, the standard response: No shit.
