He makes some outstanding points in that article, IMO. Nice link!

I've always thought that reducing the NBA playoff field would make the NBA regular season much more interesting. A 16 team playoff field is way too much. If there were only four or six teams making the playoffs from each conference, there would be a lot more urgency in the regular season. What purpose does it serve to have the Milwaukee Bucks make the playoffs this year? They have no shot at beating the Heat. Make the playoffs more exclusive and you will see the intensity of the competition go up.

Superb article by this man.

Good read. However, do you think that college football is decrying? Its not for the common man any longer. College football has become NFL minor leagues. All these neutral games being played in final fantasy venues like Jerry world is damaging college football. Its come to a point where people have to pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars to watch a meaningful game. For example, I will tell you know, the Bama tickets at Kyle field will be running at 500+ dollars just for nose bleed. Its ridiculous.
I really hope that college football does not lose its pageantry, but I am afraid it will soon enough

Sorry I'm pretty wasted. Excuse my grammatical errors. Too lazy to go back and fix.

The bowl games are going to take the biggest hit of all starting in 2014. I have a feeling no one is going to care save the 3 playoff games, which would be unfortunate.

Yea, I want the playoff system, but I also like the bowls. Not sure how it will work out.

Agree that the playoff will kill off the other bowls outside the semifinals and championships

That's a good article. I agree completely. The regular season in college football is as good as it gets and is what makes college football unique. I don't mind the 4 team playoff and possibly 8 team playoff because I think you can still have these small elite team playoffs without sacrificing the everything is riding on it feel of college football regular season games. Any bigger playoff than that and the regular season will suffer.

Good. The bowl season is where college football looks most like the other sports being critiqued in the article, ESPECIALLY March Madness. We could probably cut half the bowls without missing a beat.

Ya i think the economics of the bowls will put many of them out of business.
Though even the worst bowls generate decent TV audiences which it seems is all that matters these days.
Crap bowls will likely look like 1st round march madness games.. empty stadiums but big TV audiences.

They already do. Most lower tier bowls are made for tv events anyway.
