Officials dismiss Trump's assertions about NFL and debates (Yahoo Sports)

Both the NFL and the Commission on Presidential Debates are rejecting Republican Donald Trump's assertions about the fall debates, which the billionaire businessman says have been rigged by his opponents to draw a smaller audience by scheduling two of them at the same time as a football game. Trump began by making an accusation in a tweet posted Friday night: ''As usual, Hillary & the Dems are trying to rig the debates so 2 are up against major NFL games. Why are the debates against' - 'cause the NFL doesn't wanna go against the debates.
