    Why no playoffs?

    yes I know the context. yes I'm still posting it. The bit in the vid sums up my feelings as a newcastle fan
  2. Unlucky from Aguero with that chip hitting the post Pen to City, 1-1 Aguero.
  3. "ironically they've looked better going forward since the second striker came on" how is that ironic
  4. Feels like every time they send out a letter the next game is utter shite . Need to stop doing it
  5. title still stands as it was an og right?
  6. That seems a bit pricey - dedicated server?

    Not one bit, imo. Seen too many top seeds get wiped off the floor in US sports to think that it does. I missed this. This is crazy talk. The Warriors and Spurs are without question the two best teams in the NBA this season. If they both lost in Round 1 of the playoffs you would take that to mean they weren't actually the best teams? Of course. That's ridiculous. I think I'm done here. tbf though that's a best of 7, a mini-season, which you'd expect the better team to win much more often than not. Any team can beat any other team in a one-off, which is fine for cups but I wouldn't like to help determine a league winner.

    Is some of this optics? The league is just the league - there's no n/e/s/w divisions within an AFC and NFC, or, more directly analogous to football, no groups of X in a power of 2. So the idea that the winner is anything but the winner seems odd.

    that picture would piss me off even if I'd never heard of baseball first thing aliens see when they land is going to be that guy and it'll be curtains for humanity.

    reminder that the cool and good solution to all of the worlds problems, the playoff system, is being backed by a man whose team has appeared in no less than 40 world series, winning 27 of them, and he wants to tell you it will bring competition and break up entrenched clubs. I bet if you pull off mike's mask scooby-doo style you'll find donald trump underneath. http://i.imgur.com/0gLtaiv.png

    I'm not anti-mike or a yank turncoat but I don't think I'm fully sold on it. Probably 60-40 in favor of keeping it the way it is. For one I like the idea that you win the league by being the best over the long haul. I wouldn't take the top 8 finishers of a marathon then put them through sprint playoffs to decide a real winner. On the other hand I do like knockout competitions and I think they add more excitement overall. And this would have a chance at breaking up the top 4. But you already have the FA cup for knockout purposes. Just need a way of breaking up the entrenched top clubs. I can see pluses and minuses but I'd leave it as is tbh.

    Oh boy, so many new replies. I wonder how the playoff thr http://i.imgur.com/q7Qpv.gif
  15. hope his ice cream scoops always tumble off the cone before his first taste
  16. it sounds paranoid but I feel like they're always blowing our "incidents" way out of proportion, like they'll receive snide satisfaction out of someone getting into trouble over nothing
  17. Scholes got away with his revolting side but he had his pure genius side to compensate I suppose. Still, never liked how everyone - from the commentators to the refs - would laugh off the second late studs up challenges as "typical scholesy lol".
  18. Fellaini is such a massive twat, hate him.
