"This is another example of how professional sports get things wrong when it comes to the playoffs.
Does anyone remember the last time the Bruins won a playoff series? They beat Carolina who were a three seed but they were the 8TH best team in the conference. How about the 103 win Giants not going to the playoffs in the pre-wild card era? Even though I am a fan of Atlanta and they played well against the Celtics, they did not deserve to be there last year. How about the Whalers not making it with 80+ points in the late 80s and Toronto making it with 56?
I live in Denver and I am praying that SD wins. If an 8-8 team makes it, I'd rather it not be the Broncos because their fans are losers. They are WORSE than Yankee fans.
All sports need to scrap these divisions for determining playoff positions. Top six or eight, depending on the league per conference should go regardless of the division. You have even the Jets at 9-7 sitting out and a possible 8-8 team getting in."
We'll concede that Bronco fans are losers but letting in more teams to the playoffs because pf an anomaly is foolish...and your argument loses steam when you mention two teams (Pats and Jets) who you think should get in but they were in fact smashed by the 8-8 team (Bolts). Thanks though...your tears are re-hydrating us!
