Is Betting and Cheating the way to go in Sport?

Over the past few weeks I've been keeping up to date with the news about the betting within cricket and the shame it has brought upon the sport as a whole.


I'm not really a big cricket fan so I guess I haven't felt the impact as some die hard fans would. What impact does it have on watching a game or even trusting the scoreline. The constant allegations and huge syndicates that exist behind the sport....


But its deeper than that. 
Cricket has been exposed and its been going on for a while, but what other sports really now cannot be looked at with a lingering eye?


Football was thrown under the spotlight a few years ago, but what if the ref was on the books? or a striker having a bad patch, or a goalie who starts missing everythig? 
- all of a sudden questions can arise.


what about Rugby?? - Bloodgate for instance ?
Tennis - well that would be easy to throw a game, point or set here and there.
Snooker -already had a run in recently 


So what is to be trusted of our modern sports these days ? - don't get me wrong when I watch Spurs play the suggestion never enters my mind, but these days you never know what is going to turn up in the Sunday papers.
