Playoff Fairness
Assuming the point of the playoffs in professional sports is designed to determine the best team in that sport, which sports do you think are the most legitimate in saying that the champion is the best team?
10 = almost guaranteed the champion is the best team in that sport 1 = completely random - all teams in the playoffs have the same chance to be the final champion. |

Re: Playoff Fairness
Care to explain how the nature of a football game makes it less likely that a few lucky plays (or a gamelong off-performance by a few players on either team) will turn the tide of a game and allow the worst team to win? "Carries a lot more weight" just doesn't do it for me.

[/ QUOTE ] only because there are fewer football games. this is nonsense. a playoff series is absolutely more likely to determine the true better team. this is simply an arguement of short term vs. long term. the more trials the less likely luck is to be the determining factor. |

Re: Playoff Fairness
You will just have to trust me...
Put it this way, what's more likely - the Devil Ray's take 2/3 from the Red Sox in Boston - or a lousy NFL team like the Bears goes to NE and beats the Patriots? |
