The 2016 Big Ten Championship game is rigged for Wisconsin to win

The Big Ten titles game is going to be rigged in favor of Wisconsin this time. Because last time, the 59-0 Ohio State. That was rigged. Wisconsin. Gary Anderson was fired recently. Left right away. It all makes sense.

Penn State defeated Wisconsin 38-31 to win the Big Ten Championship.

Roger Goodell is making kickers miss to save money on the NFL's Salute to Service donations

The NFL donates $1,000 to the three core nonprofit partners for every point scored [during Salute to Service month]. Roger Goodell... is trying to save a little coin. The NFL ratings are hurting... He probably sat everyone down and said, guess what? We'll get some kickers to miss some extra points. Boom. $11,000 saved today.

The league does not instruct players to miss kicks to save on charity donations.

The fact that creepy clowns disappeared immediately after the election proves Donald Trump paid them to create chaos during the campaign

What happened to the clowns?... Before the election. Now the clowns just are gone? Chaos is good for Trump. You don't think Trump bought some clowns and had them kind of have some panic around America? Because that's coincidental that the clowns are just not here anymore.

This is a satirical conspiracy theory that cannot be proven.

Twitter announced the death of Vine just to get PR and check its importance

It seems like something that a company that was maybe down... they need a little press. What better way to press than announce a death?... they're like, if enough people object to us closing down Vine, then we'll keep it around.

Vine was officially discontinued by Twitter, and while it lived on as 'Vine Camera' briefly, the platform died.

Ken Bone is a government plant to distract us from the election

I think that Ken Bone is either a plant for the Red Sweater Company... or he might be just a guy that's inserted in there to make us just stop freaking out about the election. I think that Ken Bone might actually be like a Jason Bourne type situation where he's an assassin.

Ken Bone was a genuine undecided voter from Belleville, Illinois, not a CIA plant or professional assassin.

Josh Gordon is being paid by the NFL to pretend weed is ruining his life

Is there a conspiracy that Josh Gordon is being paid by the NFL to pretend weed is ruining his life so they can keep it illegal? ... who else do we know anyone else who's been addicted to weed?

This is a satirical conspiracy theory with no basis in factual reality.

Tim Tebow is a viral marketing stunt hired by Jimmy Kimmel

I think Tim Tebow is just a viral ad. I think he's just a viral person. He's a Kimmel stunt. Yes, Jimmy Kimmel has hired Tim Tebow from the time Tim Tebow was in ninth grade just to do pranks.

Tim Tebow's career was genuine, albeit unconventional; he was not a plant by Jimmy Kimmel.

The Auburn girl getting hit in the face by a football was a staged video

I think it was planned. Obviously, she still got the ball off her face, but there's a second video of someone videotaping her behind her. That seems too convenient... I said in the text, I was like, I don't know how, but I know.

The girl, Ashley Ward, later explained she was simply trying to catch it and the second video was from a friend; there is no evidence it was staged.

The 'Send Beer Money' Venmo kid on College GameDay is a fake viral ad

No, you don't do that. Seemed a little fishy... Nowhere to be found. No one can find Sam Crowder... It's a fake. It's a viral ad.

Sam Crowder was a real person (an Iowa State student) who actually raised over $1 million for a children's hospital after the sign went viral. It was not a corporate ad.
