Why not \"Win by Two\"?
 

I think the World Series (and other playoff series in Baseball and other sports) would be better if there were a requirement that the winner win by a margin of at least two games.

In other words, the series would end when the game count is:
4-0
4-1
4-2
5-3
6-4
7-5
etc.

I know a series could drag on a bit occasionally, but is there any other reason not to do it this way?

because it's best of seven. and it gets cold in november.

Blame the wildcard for November games. Maybe we should undo that change. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Sounds like a very bad idea. No way would I want to watch 12 game world series.

Maybe not, but it would be weird if there an elimination game everyother game. A game seven is much more final, more...emotion...maybe not the world I am looking for but I hope you get what I mean.

That would totally kill the game 7 drama. Game 7s are awesome. I don't like this idea.
