No it’s baseball, too much parity. Having one game crowning and determining the Champion in Baseball is a disservice.

What about NCAA basketball then?

I suppose you could make the argument for that, but there are not near as many ups and downs on a day to day basis with Basketball teams as there are with Baseball teams.

What ups and downs do you refer to?

I’m just the opposite. I think it needs to go to best of 5. The Super Regionals are best of three. The ladies are best of three, so the men’s championship needs to be greater than the women’s and the Supers.

Basketball doesn't have an equivalent to a pitcher being shut down for 3+ days just for playing the sport.

Pretty sure if lsu would’ve dropped a game to Arkansas and dropped a game to ucla . But won the elimination game vs Arkansas pretty sure it would be a 1 game series? Could be wrong tho ??

I like the best of three with the brackets because they don’t mix the brackets like softball does. In the old days, you could have a team sweep their bracket and lose to a team that had already lost a game or have a team get the easy bracket then the team from the hard side loses because they used their pitching up. This way you feel better about a true champion. I do wish they would mix the brackets to make it more even.

You're talking apples and oranges

That's why you have a pitching staff.

Lol WTF?
That has never been the case since they moved to the two bracket system.

Don’t temp espn to making it best of seven for more money.
Posted on 6/21/25 at 3:06 pm to JRobe
Not any good for baseball. Hated those noon Saturday games after playing through Friday. Ridiculous.

Having a pitching staff is why you have a best 2 of 3.
How do you not understand this?
Posted on 6/21/25 at 3:07 pm to JRobe
You aren't very smart, obviously.

How about just 1 inning then? Winner take all? Or flip of a coin could make it much quicker. It's a summer game of strategy with differing pitching depending on previous games played, and possible personnel/lineup changes to suit the situation. World series is 7 games. I like the 3 games.
Eta. Why have double elimination in the buildup to the championship? Patience makes the sport more entertaining. It's a game of leisure mixed with intelligence and athleticism, and sometimes beaning.
