And with 7 you get eggroll
I thought yesterday's SEVEN Overtime game was great. It was a double-header in one game. While he thinks the NCAA needs to have an NFL style overtime rules, I completely disagree. The NFL style of sudden death makes the game decided more by luck than the play of the players. Here(see page 56 for rules of overtime), each team has a chance to score. While the games MAY last a long time, they rarely do. And when they do, they are instant classics. Don't let the luck of a flip of the coin determine a game between evenly matched teams. Let their play determine who wins.
And considering that he is a the BASEBALL Crank, you would think that he would like the idea that each team gets a chance. In baseball, the first team to score isn't the winner. It's the team with the most runs at the END of a inning.
