Why won't yahoo answers let me ask "why don't people understand that the nba is fixed?"?

i have tried to ask this 3 times and they all got deleted. the first 2 i argued with people on it but the last time i just asked the question and said nothing. Why can't i ask this? is the nba getting worried that someone knows or what?? im getting frustrated that I can't ask a simple question

Update:

@Nikki i mean that the NBA (ever since david stern has become comissioner in 84) makes sure that only big market teams win because that makes them the most money through betting. check it out its true.

and anyone that disagrees dont just say that u disagree - give me facts like i can give you

    It gets deleted because it's a 'rhetorical' question, one expressing your opinion rather than a genuine request for information, and is therefore considered a 'chat' violation. Y/A is meant to be a true Q&A site, not a soapbox or a place to debate issues - you would be better off in a 'chat' room or a sports forum of some sort for this "question".

    If your question lead to endless arguing and insults, someone may have complained and the community removed the question. That's the only thing I can think of. And what exactly do you mean the nba is fixed? what are you referring to?

    I'm not interested in basketball but clearly you got under the skin of the basketball fans. You got to them and enough of them reported you to get the question deleted.

    no sport is fixed. you don't think that one player would of said something about it by now?
