Wow, Aamos - I stalked your log. 17 marathons this year?? I'm speechless! That is so cool. You are my hero! I told DH and added, "She's nice, too!" When did you run your first marathon?
In my opinion, this whole "wild card" thing is a corruption of baseball second only to the "designated hitter" rule. In my youth (you were there too, Ribs!), there were 8 teams in each league, and at the end of the season the two pennant winners met in the World Series. So you earned your post-season spot by winning your division, not by finishing 2nd (or 3rd or 4th or whatever it is in the NBA and NHL). At least baseball goes into the postseason with only 8 teams as opposed to 32, but is it really honorable to hope your team finishes in 2nd place? Would you rather win your AG or place 2nd?
