>>19671442Refs selectively enforce rules to favor certain star players because star players winning create 'story lines' that in turn, sells more tickets, merch, tv ad revenue. This nets more money for the league as a whole, in which profits are generally majority shared between team owners. This is why certain stars like lebron, brady, mutthomes, bryant, curry, etc. seem to snowball and get favorable calls.
These are billion dollar businesses that have no legal obligation to fairly officiate their games. Its just a more refined version of wrestling.
