One of the things I’ve been trying to do lately with this blog is to express to my reader that yes, I do have interests outside of the things I write about here. In this previous post, I discussed my passion for history, and was more than happy to share that with you guys. Now, I’d like to share a bit about my love for football.
Football is pretty huge where I live here in Saskatchewan. Our provincial CFL team, the Saskatchewan Roughriders, is quite possibly the most popular sports team in the country. “Rider Pride” is known throughout Saskatchewan, throughout Canada, and even internationally. I’ve heard stories of Rider flags being flown in Central American resorts during game day.
I, however, am not that interested in the Roughriders. This is by no fault of their own, as they can be entertaining to watch, and it’s nice to have a home team to cheer for. What really excites me is the NFL. I am a big fan of the Baltimore Ravens, and just love to watch the NFL in general. The skill level when compared to the CFL is much higher, and the league itself is just more enjoyable to watch.
Now, unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, you know that Super Bowl XLIX was last night. I know that not everyone is a fan of football, but it would be hard to not know that it was played last night. The game ended with the New England Patriots coming back in a rousing 28-24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks. It was one of, if not the most exciting game of the year, and definitely a fitting end to the 2014-2015 NFL season.
Why this is all relevant to this blog is because of a game simulation that was run by EA Sports on Madden 15. As far as I understand, they run pregame simulations before every Super Bowl. And this year, their simulation was incredibly accurate.
Let’s start at the score, which is the most obvious similarity. The score in the simulation was, as in real life, 28-24 for the Patriots. But that’s not all. The simulation had the Pats begin with a comfortable lead, only to have it lost later on. Again similar to the real Super Bowl. In the sim we see Tom Brady picked off by the dominant Seattle defense, which, well, you can guess what I’m going to say. The sim predicted Marshawn Lynch plowing through for a physical rushing touchdown. It also predicted that after getting up to 24, the Hawks would lose their lead after Brady threw a late game touchdown to Julian Edelman. The sim even accurately predicted that Brady would win the MVP award.
Pretty crazy stuff. Or, at least, pretty entertaining stuff. I’m not sure what to think of it, considering they could have just run sims until they came up with an “accurate” prediction. But the thing is, they released the results of the simulation almost a full week before the Super Bowl even started. I don’t really know what to think of it, and would love to hear your guys’ take on the situation.
All I can guess is either it’s all just a crazy fluke or, well . . . illuminati confirmed.

EA Games are Illuminati controlled. Their online support is provided by Concentrix, whose parent company, Synnex Corporation, has Fidelity Management and Research as it’s second biggest stakeholder. Other major stakeholders are Black Rock, Rothschild and Vanguard. In November 2014, Concentrix won a contract with the UK Government’s HMRC, to investigate tax claims, despite being untrained for the job. Concentrix quickly came under criticism for it’s practices in the UK media, yet despite bungling this job, Concentrix went on a few months later to win another contract with the UK Government to work as Bailiffs, this was despite another company being expected to get the contract.
Well, my original post was a bit tongue-in-cheek, but you bring up some interesting points. Nothing wrong with a conspiracy theory or two, eh?
