Re: NFL Playoff Weekend
I'm actually not a huge fan of playoffs. I think they diminish the regular season. Football is a bit different since you don't play every team. But in baseball, hockey and basketball, they make the regular season relatively meaningless.

the statistician of the group would say something like this.kitic77 wrote:I'm actually not a huge fan of playoffs. I think they diminish the regular season.

Next you'll be arguing that instead of playing the college football games, just give the team with the higher PER the win. That way it doesn't make the previous performances meaningless.
Playoffs rule. If a team dominates during the season, why should they fall apart in the postseason. Especially if it involves a 7-freaking-game-series and that team that performed well gets the huge benefit of playing the team that struggled the most, first.
Prove it.

Why should a team that dominated the regular season have to prove again what they just did? Why should a team that struggled in the regular season be given a second chance?
I get the "need" for playoffs. And yes, a team that dominates the regular season shouldn't fall apart in the post season. But sometimes they do and it's a shame that at times, their spectacular regular season is all but forgotten (see the Seattle Mariners in 2004).
Full disclosure: I'm an RSL fan and loved that RSL snuck into the playoffs last year and then went on to win the Cup.

Re: NFL Playoff Weekend
And the only way to win a championship should be to finish the job in the playoffs. If you can't finish off RSL, did you really deserve to win the championship?kitic77 wrote:The only way to get a higher PER is to play the game.declocoug wrote:the statistician of the group would say something like this.kitic77 wrote:I'm actually not a huge fan of playoffs.

I see where you're coming from, but I love playoffs. Especially since we get to deal with the atrocious BCS every stinkin year.

Wahoo! Sent that Ugg-wearing long-haired-hippie Mr. Gizelle packing!
I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,
