    Let's Make Baseball Great Again

    With football viewers down, and after the toro/Balt game two nights ago, and the awesome Giants/Mets game last night, people are getting turned on again to Americas pastime.

    It's exciting, but nothing like nhl playoffs.

    I'm not into nba much, but the playoffs are pretty sweet.

    100% true
    The NBA needs to take a lesson and learn from MLB's NOW perfect playoff system.
    You make winning your division of the ultimate importance.
    Giants had 1 game and had to use their ace for all of it, now going into the next series at a disadvantage which is deserving because they didn't win the division.
    If the NBA did something like this, you wouldn't have parents paying hundreds of dollars for tickets to bring their kids to see Lebron, only to see hes not starting tonight because of "rest"
    Poppavich and Spoelstra started an epidemic in the NBA to where starters dont play every few games and they need to fix it ASAP.
    What's the reason? Because the regular season doesn't mean shit and neither does winning the division.

    MLB and NFL have got it right. I can't even tell you how the divisions are aligned in the NBA or the NHL. The playoffs are just a gluttony of teams in both of those leagues. The NBA playoffs were much better when they just had 6 teams from each conference with the division winners getting byes, while the 3-6 seeds played each other in a best 2 out of 3 series.

    JJ has one valid point. A 3-0 game was still 3 hours and 11 minutes. Need to speed it up.

    Not me, especially if I go to the game. Why the hell would I want to spend several hundred dollars for the game to last 2 hours?
