Playoffs what Sport is the Best?

After spending several hours with Master Wit and JM. I can truly understand why some animals kill their young. Ah...just kidding. While spending time at the diner with the two of them, I was amazed at Wit's grasp of geography. I swear. But that's where it ended.

But anyway, my thought for today is what sport actually is the best to watch come playoff time?

Of the four major sports, I will exclude World Cup Soccer, which we all know is the best sporting event ever, my ratings are as follows:

4: Baseball, lets face it unless you are watching the Yankees against the Red Sox or the Yanks vs. Mets, what do you get. Baseball is long drawn out and zero on the physical. With the exception of Clemens and Piazza was there even anything close to a fight? Don't get me wrong until the ninth inning you just wait. I still love the sport but not my favorite come playoff time.

3: Basketball, I will give you this, its become physical and that spells excitement. Players are bigger and certainly come playoff time they mix it up pretty good, but lets face facts until the last two minutes, who really cares.

I am actually torn from here in, while I am bias, that being because I am the Hockey Lawyer, I will go with Football as number 2.

2: Football, of all of the major sports football does not have the possibility to play the other team in a series. Accordingly, they really don't get the chance to hate each others like the other sports. But the idea that every game is really a game seven, makes it incredible. Every play in football could be a key moment. While I can't get enough of Football Playoffs, here's the reason why Hockey playoffs are the best to watch.

1: Hockey, Anyone who watches hockey will tell you come playoff time the game totally changes. From the speed, the passing, the hitting and even the goaltending. The thing is, the game is made to run into each other and they basically tell you its OK to fight. Can you imagine some guy getting under your skin for seven games and its OK to turn around and blast him. Oh yeah, I forgot, you only have to sit out for five minutes. Like any other sport you do have some bad games, and even a bad series but for the most part, when you reach down to the final eight teams, all you have are guys bleeding, cursing and at this point just don't like each other.

Just food for thought, good thing, Master Wit is not around, he may eat it.
