    This is why I'm not bragging about the Flyers being in 1st overall by 5 pts. It doesn't mean shit. Just need to be in Top 16, right Rangers fans??? Sorry, this is the Giants thread, isn't it?

    just busting balls dude. we're not used to having shit talking rights in philly. I'm new to this
    Philly's teams in general have gotten better.

    The Phillies have the most theoretically unhittable rotation that I've heard of in a while, the Flyers made it to the championship last season and are doing very well this season, and the Eagles getting rid of McNabb has paid big dividends for them.

    The 76ers still suck though. :lol:

    And hockey is definitely not the hardest sport to win in the playoffs - when more than 50% of the teams just qualify for the postseason to start is preposterous.

    dude you have to win 16 games...potentialy play 28 ...night after night

    getting killed every second of every shift..football is a very rough sport,but its 3 or 4 games..period

    say what you want but i will stick with my point

    Yeah, and it makes the season almost meaningless. St. Louis made the playoffs, what, like a ton of times in a row? They never had any business being there ever. Same thing with the Caps before Ovechkin. Just the fact that teams like those can make it, and have a chance, are ridiculous. The amount of games are negligible because of how many shit teams can make it. If your argument is "hockey is tougher than all the other sports" then that really isn't an argument.

    Basketball is the easiest, followed by hockey, then football, then baseball.

    baseball???? bwaaaaaah..you can't be serious

    it doesn't matter the teams who make the playoffs
    after the 1st game the teams hate each other
    unlike any other sport..they can and do show just how much
    way more grueling

    Dude, your whole argument is based around what you think is the best/toughest sports - personal bias. I'm giving you numbers, facts.

    16 teams - more than 50% of the teams in both the NBA and NHL make it.
    NFL - 12 teams, 38%
    MLB - 8 teams, 27%

    Those are facts.

    yea but aside from the amount of teams ..hockey is the toughest playoff season to win it all

    football is 4 games at most..usually 3 for the eventual champion..hockey 16 with a potential 28

    i think that says it all
    but this back is forth is stupid

    you have your beliefs and vice versa

    I actually think football only having to win 3-4 games makes it tougher. one loss and you're done.

    My rankings would be same as JPs...hoops, hockey, football, baseball. too much crazy shit can happen in a baseball series. like cody fucking ross going crazy...or juan uribe hitting a GW homer.

    ugh, I just puked on myself

    I have no interest in hockey.

    most islander and ranger fans say that these days. I don't blame you
    In general, I have no interest in hockey. Never a hockey person.

    I think Neily's point is that hockey is the most grueling sport to win a title in. And I agree. It's a vicious battle of attrition.
