and which Final Four is more exciting..College Football Playoff or Final Four.
The Mike on the left said he passed on making a decision since each year with different teams involved made it difficult to pick either sport as being The Best (is Standard).
I concur..but feel that last year's final FOUR of FB was pretty exciting and that the Final Game was unreal exciting for ONE group of fans (CLEMSON).

I grew up playing both sports competitively Bill , and while Basketball is the only one I can still partly participate in ( so long as my oxygen bottle holds out ) I am much more enthralled by football .
It just means more .

when there was a 400% difference in FT's and one guy shot 3 times more FT's then the entire Clemson squad
There is nothing about a game that is influenced by judges that appeals to me. There is no comparison to football and sports in shorts

Never seen a team have more assists, more FG's, more 3 pt FG's, more blocks and the other stats basically even and get the standard tobacco road treatment.
I didnt even bring up finishing the game with 4 players on floor debacle. I chose this one
Was that your only question for me ?

University Place. It is that game in particular that has me believing they'll never let us win in Chapel Hill. It was one of the most egregious games I've ever watched. We committed 31 fouls to their 14 (over a 50 minutes game, mind you), and they shot 36 free throws to our 7. I'll never forget any of those numbers.

That's certainly a convoluted statement ...

I find myself totally agreeing with the part where you say that the outcomes of some of our games against the Tar Heels seemed to be dictated by obvious officiating bias.
But I don't agree that basketball is any less of a legitimate sport than football. While I prefer football, I still enjoy basketball.
And certainly the outcomes of games in both sports are frequently influenced by officials (judges) who make judgement calls that can be biased.

Throw in rampant purchasing of players through the AAU market. If I'm going to watch pro basketball I woukd rather watch better basketball - the NBA

Basketball final four is really only good when a Cinderella

team like Winthrop or some school in BFE gets hot and starts beating these big teams. Like the valparaiso's or george masons, etc. But when that doesn't happen its just okay. I like it but its not close to football. What would you rather watch the Super Bowl or the NBA finals? Theres just no contest. I think you could have a better comparison with Baseball and BAsketball though.

Bill, who is the Mike on the left? The big guy, or the little guy? Asking for a friend.
