And who cares how much money they make? Everybody wants more money, right? And they'll do anything to get it. It's a greedy world.

When you think about how much money you'd have to pay the multiple players needed to take this kind of dive versus the money they'd earn from being national heroes for winning, your point doesn't even make logical sense. The betting "action" would have to be so large to recoup the investment that it would throw off red flags long before the match ever started. (EDIT - see post above by flere)
Money is not the only motivating force in this world BTW.
Finally, when you throw matches, you don't throw them 7-1. You make the loss plausible.
So, in short, you're accusing people of doing something wrong that doesn't even make logical sense. Essentially, you're as being a douchebag and for that you should be ashamed.
