What is this fixation you have with "NEED"? I have never said that anybody "needs" to do anything. I'm merely saying that a playoff system is better, and obviously better, for choosing a nat'l champion than a poll system. There's no "need" about it.

Obviously I don't mean every single other organization on the planet - for instance the American Medical Association or the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers don't determine a national champ.
Oh, you got me there. I thought you meant that the American Design Drafting Association International chose its nat'l champion through a poll.

OK, I stand corrected. Of course they don't NEED it, it's just that "It's so obvious that a playoff system would be better than the current system that the debate isn't fun."

Pls go back and substitute "It's so obvious that a playoff system would be better than the current system that the debate isn't fun" for all instances of NEED.

It's quite obvious that's what you thought.

As I said, glad i could straighten you out.

I agree with Scrappy.

So there.

Can you imagine what it would be like around here in March if the NCAA chose it's D1 basketball champion by poll?

The fanboys, the fanboys.....
