Hello,
I'm back in.
By the way and after the small discussion we had last year, I would like to revisit the last playoff spot rule.
The initial idea of this rule was to remove randomness from the game and the head 2 head system. You can have a great team scoring a lot of points but facing the highest scorer almost every week and have a bad record.
A modification was made to the rules making it more difficult, even I voted Y to it, something I think was a mistake.
In my opinion the last playoff spot should be for the team with the most points scored between seeds 6th - 12th with no other requeriments or added condition.
Ya darn right bad things can happen. In the late 70's, my brothers BB team was 1 game away from a trip to the State Tournament when our All-State center was goofing around after practice and went up for a dunk and came down and tore his ankle all to hell. End of tournament run.
Cubs just won their 5th in row, the Professor looked great for a change. Big win over the Cards. I am not sure what has lit a fire with this team but I hope we can keep it going. It's jumbled up again between the Cubs, Reds, Pirates. Cubs and Reds are at 46-49, Pirates 46-48.
Reds have been winning lately, but so has literally everyone else in the division and the league. So while they’re almost back to .500, they haven’t made any progress for a wildcard spot and are still basically tied for last place.
At least they’ve been fun to watch for a couple days.
