I hope folks had a solid weekend, though if you were hoping for exciting conference championship football games yesterday, you were disappointed by two laughers. With the launch of The Ten-Yard Line, I’m necessarily getting more aggressively back into football again – and I’m not looking to rip the sport – but I couldn’t help but think immediately about the Cubs’ playoff run: despite being the clear best team in baseball, they still had to win three very exciting series to win it all. That was good for baseball, even though it highlights what a crapshoot the playoffs are (especially when compared to some other sports). That makes for a much more exciting postseason overall, doesn’t it? Or does the fact that every football game is win-or-go-home make up for it?
