I find the idea that a MINIMUM of 13 people involved in this sort of conspiracy, and it not getting out, to be very unlikely. Again, throwing a single game might be feasible, but even then it would probably come out.
No, Occam's Razor certainly applies in this case, and the simplest explanation is Human Failure. Conspiracy requires FAR too many unlikely assumptions.

This is a nice straw man you folks are working on. Who says it has to be league-wide and affect the outcome of every game? If pressure or instructions to the refs from league offices altered the outcome of just one game, then that is very wrong and something worth bitching about.
