In the NFL, it's damn near impossible for Atlanta to beat Green Bay. Y'all overrate parity. The NFL is QB supremacy

Who is ya'll? You sure to talking to the right person?

Aaron Rodgers has lost to an inferior QB in the playoffs each of the last 5 years. Peyton got bombed on after having the GOAT season. He just won a ring last year while playing the worst football of his life. Did he reign supreme over Thomas or Cam last year :usure:? If anything is overrated it's the "It's a QB league" stuff.

That's also because there is WAY less scoring in baseball and hockey than in basketball.

You score one lucky goal, hit one home run at the right time, you can win a game even if you were outplayed. In hockey there's only 2-5 goals most games. In baseball, no more than 15 runs usually and often just 1-4.

But in basketball, both teams are making 40 shots a game. One lucky shot doesn't mean anything. Over the course of the game, the team that plays better will almost always win. But hockey/baseball have a lot more randomness. That's why the best basketball teams ever won 85-90% of their games, while the best hockey/baseball teams only won 70-75%.
Baseball it's lower than that. If an NFL team wins 10 games, that's a 62.5% winning percentage. Projected over a baseball season that's 100-101 wins. Most teams don't win that many. No baseball team has at least under a 162 game season won 75% of its games. That'd mean they'd have to win 122 games on a season.

"Parity" is the new sports-buzzword for the entitled, millennial generation.
WTF does it even mean? It seems to be the go-to excuse for the fan bases of every team that LeBron doesn't play for. Or in the NFL, every team that doesn't have Brady.
What is this glorious parity in the NFL you speak of?
I'm a life long Bills fan. When do we get our parity?

If you go on a deep run yet you have a record that wouldn't get you in the playoffs and/or wouldn't get you HFA if you were in any other grouping then yeah...you got lucky.
But some teams play down to their opponents. Just because the Seahawks win their division with 7-9 doesn't mean they wouldn't have won another division with 12-4. Don't assume shyt, nikka. It wasn't luck.
And plenty of teams that make deep runs get exposed by missing the playoffs the next year..
:mjlol: That isn't being exposed, fakkit, it's a whole new season, new rosters and everything. A grip of SB champs missed the playoffs the next season, does that mean they wasn't shyt :dahell: FOH, it still means they were the best when they won it all.
One day breh :mjcry:.........one day. It will be ours and it will be sweet.
It will never happen, b.
