I was gonna snark on you for basically summarizing the article, but then you closed with an all-time underrated GB quote so I just can’t do it. Here’s your star.

My much deeper* conspiracy theory is that he was either trying to avoid having to do whatever he would have to do to manufacture the result, or was aware of a match-fixing scheme involving OTHER players and didn’t want to be a part of it.
