Re: "Home Field Advantage" - ?!?!?
As an outsider, my opinion doesn't mean anything, but if I were a part of this league, I would be opposed to this homefield rule as well.
One point that Skippy failed to mention is 12D, the "Tie game goes to the higher seed" rule. In essence, the "road" team could overcome the -7 point home field advantage and STILL LOSE the game. And not just any game, a PLAYOFF game that the owner worked hard all year just for the right to compete in.
It is possible that what would have been a 7 point LOSS in regular season action becomes a win for the higher seed. This would be rare, sure, but the possiblity is there.
To quote Skippy: :lame
