In this podcast, Buzz and Remo cover the sensitive topic of throwing points, games, sets and even matches. Who are the main offenders? Can we really tell is someone is throwing a match? Is there strategy involved? What are the deeper implications? Teddy Shingles tells of the days when tennis was officially amateur and how tanking became a necessary promotional tool of the outcast professional circuit.
