I don't like the 2nd WC either because it's trying to recreate something that should happen organically.



judgment calls are judgment calls for a reason. A CPU is just as likely to fukk that up as a real person would

I understand what youre saying, just as big of a reason Selig put this in was excitement not just giving the wc a disadvantage. But I thought for the longest time smthg needed to be done about the WC having no real disadvantage. I dont think there is a better solution, even having to play all the games ont he road isnt THAT big of a deal to me.:manny:

To make it even more retarted, the wildcard winner gets the 1st two games at home, then the next three are played at the division winners stadium. I believe that's only happening this season tho.

All Star Game determines home field for World Series
A 1 game play off in the most random sport there is

Baseball may be America's Past Time, but Bud Selig is trolling with this 1 game setup. I mean really?

:troll:

When I heard about the new changes, I just assumed it was going to be best 3 out of 5. Then the game was on yesterday and I was just dumbfounded that it was 1 and done.

Should have been a best of 3 for the wildcard, IMO.

they won't do it. There's three other teams that still have to play, and it's not like they have much time to waste in terms of scheduling.

I'll bet they do it within 3 years.

First, re-eliminate the extra day after the ASG.

3-game WC series on Fri-Sat-Sun, DS starts Mon/Tues instead of Sat/Sun.

It's 2 extra days at most.


Or just move the start of the season up 3 days...or take an extra day or 2 of off days.

On the flip side it seems like the spoiled-coddled Red Sox players win yet again. Bobby V the gawd said "No KFC and beer this year" and the squad went straight anarchy. Hope that franchise goes back to their lovable loser tags and fade into oblivion :pacspit:

the Red Sox were never lovable losers
