For you, it's either your way or the highway. Gimme a break Frank. I'm just pointing out that I can be just as stubborn, and in the end, it does NOBODY any good.

Like I said....
Your issue is teams trying. Playoff expansion, Toilet Bowl, Extra balls, or whatever we come up with will make more teams try more... because we all want the same thing.
My issues is sacrificing the parity that the draft offers to the bad teams, IN ORDER to get teams to try harder. My solution does not sacrifice one for the other.
We both agree on your issue with trying and competitiveness. We have no problem there. Everyone will say it is a great thing. I agree 100% and no one wants to be in a league where not everyone is trying.
However, there is a difference between leaving because of the quality of league play and the leaving because of disagreement with the structure of the league.. even then I said I'd strongly consider leaving. Didn't say I would.
Your issues with playoff expansion are PERSONAL PERFERENCES... not based on facts, not based on much reason, and nothing that affects competitive balance of the league.
Will Toilet Bowl make bottom teams try harder? Yes... but at what cost? Why not pick the solution that improves the league and maintains league parity.
