Thank NHRA for the 'count down' ...

That's twice the stupid countdown probaly has cost Edwards the championship.
I think if guy can run off with the points then he should be champ,let everyone else battle for 2 on down.

Correct, Allen is #2. As was said all along he and Roy "hired his own assassin". Imagine Jegs and Mopar made them an offer they couldn't refuse. Too bad about Edwards, NHRA thinking they are another NASCAR put them in that position and unfortunately the countdown drama is what TV and the masses expect now.

Ahhhhh yes, that is right. Just like the Baltimore Ravens may have won the Super Bowl last year, but we all know the Atlanta Falcons had the best regular season record and were the true champions. Stupid playoffs, what a joke.

I wonder how much Jeggie paid Edwards to put on the diving shorts??? I imagine the going rate for a pro stock championship is pretty steep, but if anyone can afford it...

First off, I note the sarcasm… That said…...

The Ravens lost to the

Eagles
Houston
Pittsburgh
Denver
Washington
Cincinnati

They were 1-4 their last 5 games of the REGULAR season.

So no, they weren't the best team in the league last year. They just won the last 4 games of the POST SEASON and were rewarded as if they are the best team in the league

So it's just like the countdown. You can test, mess around, play the system, and just squeak in, then as long as you are good the last couple of outings you are rewarded as the best.

Pretty lame if you ask me, and definitely doesn't reward the best team, athlete, driver, etc.

Personally, I think the only playoff system that somewhat works is multi game playoffs. Like baseball, basketball, hockey, etc.

Hope that was supposed to be a joke.

It was definitely a joke.

As for the playoffs, I like playoffs. I guess we can just agree to disagree.

Happy Veterans Day to our veterans.

I like playoffs too, makes things exciting. I just don't think, in the end, the best team, person, etc. is rewarded.
