A playoff spot

That's also what makes sports interesting. If at the beginning of the season you pretty much already know who makes it and who doesn't, it's not fun - Guigue Sep 11, 08:25 5
- Home and home for the entire league, count up the points and there's a winner. Works for some of the biggest leagues in the world - JD Sep 11, 08:45 1
  - One or two games isn't enough in baseball to decide which team is better. You can't play a home and home and call it a series. - Krusty Sep 11, 08:54
- But if the system to get the playoff teams is flawed you're going to end up with weaker teams than you should. You don't want it short enough - Krusty Sep 11, 08:30 2
  - Interesting. *checks standings* Ok, now it makes sense. -- nm - Shaun Sep 11, 08:32 1
    - My point has nothing to do my rooting interest or this season. I care about the game as a whole. I love baseball and want the sport to be the best - Krusty Sep 11, 08:44
