Which sport has the best playoff system?

MLB, NBA, NFL, or College Football?
I'd go with the NBA, it's not after a unnecessarily long regular season like the MLB, and it takes 7 games to advance which prevents teams that aren't actually the best team (2007 Giants) getting hot and getting to claim they were the "best team" that year.

NBA sucks way too many teams make it.

BCS doesn't have a playoff. Think it's called something else.
I like the MLB, but not a fan of the new wild card games.

Well, the college football playoff I'm pretty sure you all know what I meant.

Best as in producing a champion that is actually the best team?
NBA without question.

I wish the NBA would go back to five games for the first round of the playoffs.

Best: NCAA BBAll
Hardest: Stanley Cup, it's a fricking grind, and up to 4, 7 game series of being beat down and grinded.
Worst: Penalty Kicks You play all of those games, and end it on pure luck. Waste of the Whole tourney when it ends in PK's. Take people off the field and force them to go for it.

I personally think Hockey does it better than any of the ones you listed.

I'd go with NBA
Can't go with NBA when their playoff system results in 45 win teams being in the lottery and 34 win teams picking after them.
Plus I preferred the NBA playoffs when they were best of 5 (Bulls didn't seem to have much trouble in those).
I'll go with NFL. Only have 16 chances to earn your way in to a one n done so don't F up.
FWIW MLS' is awful. Having the team with the better record playing on the road in the first leg. Beyond stupid.

Baseball is a close second but I HATE the one-game wildcard playoff. Should at least be a best-of-3 series IMO

NBA takes way too fricking long. Would be better with a 5-5-7-7 format.

MLB I'd say. The only gripe I can put on a NBA playoff series is that it is different than the regular season. Your entire focus is to learn how to counter a certain team. Where in the regular season you never play the same team twice in a row. In the MLB it's not too much different than the regular season where they play series against teams all year.
