Damar Hamlin had the breathing tube removed is showing signs of normal cognitive function and even face timed into Buffalo Bills team meetings this morning…
The NFL will not resume the game between the Bengals and Bills. This is a first…
-Now what?
-The NFL is convening a meeting to amend the rules that may ultimately cause the AFC Championship game to be played on a neutral field.
-Essentially, because the Chiefs, Bills and Bengals all still had a chance to claim the number one seed and the bye that goes along with it, it creates the possibility that Kansas City, who lost to both the Bills and Bengals could be the number 1 seed simply because the Bills can’t get to 14 wins.
-Or, on the off chance of a Kansas City loss to the Raiders tomorrow afternoon, Cincy can’t get to 13 wins.
-Hey, there’s also the part where if Baltimore beats Cincy on Sunday, they would have swept the season series and because the Bengals didn’t have a chance to lose the game to Buffalo, the Ravens are blocked from winning the division.
-These are all valid arguments and clear issues of equity and fairness for which there is no great solution.
-So, how do I put this…..go scratch.
-Every once in a while…blue moon, yellow moon, harvest moon, waxing moon, waning gibbous moon….you just shut up deal with circumstances and make the best of it.
-If you’re of the mind that we need fairness, that everything needs to be equal across the board, I want to hear why.
-Never mind that the schedules are not equal in strength.
-Never mind that the schedules are not equal in terms of home and road – 17 games now.
-Never mind that the schedules are not equal in terms of travel.
-Never mind that there is ALREADY A RULE TO DEAL WITH THE CANCELLATION OF A GAME.
-It’s called winning percentage.
-Is it better for the product if the AFC title game in on a neutral field? Because depending on how things play out, a AFCCG involving 2 of KC, BUF and CIN could end up in Indy.
-BWTM……how about Baltimore at 11-6 being the home team if they beat the Bengals Sunday dropping Cincy to 11-5. That’s right, if they were to be in the 3-6 game against each other they would flip a coin for home field advantage in that game.
-There were discussions about adding an 8th team to the AFC.
-Also, having KC choose between the 1st round bye OR home field advantage against either the Bills or Bengals.
Field of 90? For sports with at least 200 participating schools, 25% for postseason.
-Are we doing the same thing for the women’s tournament?
-What about baseball (299)?
-Softball (286)?
-Golf (292)?
-Track (338)?
