Super Teams have killed it. If a matchup doesn't involve the Cavs, Warriors, Spurs, Rockets, Thunder, or healthy Clippers...it's sort of meh.

In no other league can you pick the playoffs before the season with such accuracy.

In the NFL alone...

Your two NFC favorites in Carolina and Arizona missed the playoffs, and instead we saw the top two seeds go to Dallas and Atlanta. You also had teams like Detroit, Miami, and Oakland get in.

In the MLB...

Cleveland wasn't exactly the preseason favorite to win the AL. Everyone was high on Houston, who missed the postseason. The favorite was a team who had a title drought dating back to 1908.

In the NBA...

We don't enjoy that fun. There's easily 20 teams where fans can look forward to a trip to the playoffs at BEST...where being a low seed is an accomplishment.

I guess we have different definitions of fun. This NFL season absolutely sucked and it would have been much better if teams like Carolina and Arizona were actually good.
