Exactly, lets just have a 128 team playoff so that we "decide it on the field."
Guess what? The regular season games are played on a.....wait for it.....FIELD! They are played on a FIELD! In what world did the 4 teams who made the playoff not do so on a field? Christ.
Also, just so everyone knows, basketball and football are different sports.
I wouldn't be angry if the playoff went to 8, though it would lose some luster. However, 8 would just be a stepping stone for idiots who want it to go to 16 and completely dilute the regular season(which may be the best regular season of any american sport due to the drama every week).
