Baseball's Wild-Card Playoff Format Is The Worst Thing That Has Ever Happened To Sports
I am busy revving up for a rant against the ridiculous wild-card playoff system in Major League Baseball. Some of the negative effects we are already seeing--well, a FEW of us are, anyway; the rest of you are in some sort of Neverland where the more teams that get into the playoffs the happier you are--in this year's "pennant" races. However, this is really the one issue in sports where I feel it is my duty to explain to people why it is so horrible. And since this blog just started up and I have basically no audience yet, I'm holding off on the discussion until I see the visitor counter on this site increase.
And yes, the wild-card format is the worst thing that has ever happened in American professional sports history. By far.
