But from what I've seen, the "they have enough money, it would take a lot to make a difference to them" argument has had TONS of counter-examples from athletes.

That's not the whole argument, though. It's that it would take way MORE money for players to throw a game that's nearly the pinnacle of their career, IN their home country. How much more money would someone have to make to trade that in for the cash, especially considering that it would have to be significant in comparison to the fat stacks they already make?
