Look guys, lets be honest here. There are two major reasons for taking a dive, in any sport. 1.) Money. 2.) You want to help a guy (friend) achieve a goal.

Now I'm not saying there was any money exchanged in this deal, only the people involved and God know that. Maybe it was a combination of both. There is an old adage that says "if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and walks like a duck..... it's a duck! In this deal it looks as if at least four racers walked like a duck....... for whatever reason. The video pretty much clinched it for me. Mr. Lamb's "deer in the headlights" look was obvious.

Look, many good people do "whatever it takes" to achieve a goal, or help a friend, or make some money. How many times have you heard neighbors say "He is a good boy, never bothered anyone" about a mass murderer? Not to say that taking a dive is equal to murder but hopefully you get the point. The point is that if you are to be honest about this, everyone reading this would at some point in their life would do something they normally would not do for one of the above two reasons. Statistical research positively backs my statement. All it takes is the "opportunity" at the right time in your life.

Given the facts of this particular incident, there is about a trillion to one chance Mr. Lamb did not receive "help" with this championship. This is the problem with the "ends justify the means" attitude. The means does matter! Jim
