At least that's the spin. But could it be a massive showbiz operation filled with greedy owners, crooked referees, and coddled players, all with the unstated goal of grabbing as much money as possible?Author Brian Tuohy provides a full-sourced saga of the corruption that has infected the storied histories of the NBA, MLB, NFL, NHL, and NASCAR.With reality obscured by a complacent and often complicit sports media, The Fix Is In shines a light on a hidden history of clandestine arrangements between television networks and sports leagues, all against a background of drinking, drugging, gambling and crime.Finally, here's a book that unflinchingly examines the sordid underbelly of the American sports industry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52092612804896,"sku":"NEW1932595813","price":15.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-fix-is-in-the-showbiz-manipulations-of-the-nfl-mlb-nba-nhl-and-nascar-1932595813","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
