If I understood the tv guys correctly then the NFL doesn't use the draft lottery like the NHL does. Many people don't like that here in the great warming north but I think it should be mandatory for these leagues... It just seems such a bad idea to definitively reward finishing last, although I am also sceptical if there is anyone who does actually try to lose, all these playing staff gits are playing or coaching for their careers but still.. I'm all for the draft lottery, it can also lead to hilarious situations like Buffalo tanking and then Edmonton getting macdavid...

Brady's great and all and good for him I certainly wouldn't mind him winning again but I'm hoping someone else wins it this time, Brady has had his time but if he does win, we'll all we can do is say hats off Brady... And maybe take off any hats we have..

You know... that is not such a bad idea. One thing that totally rubs me the wrong way is how the TV commentators harp on the Jets trying to win a game. Really?? So now making sure you finish last is part of the game? Yeah... I don't know what the right answer is. Maybe a draft lottery wouldn't be such a bad idea after all. Only problem with that is imagine if the Chiefs were to get the 1st pick of the draft... LOL. It would be like what you said about Buffalo and Edmonton.

In fact, I admire the Jets for trying to win. How bad would it look for the game if they didn't... all because of a draft pick? Usually this isn't such a big deal, because winless teams are not all that common in the NFL. But geez... even the commentators are cheering for the Jets to throw games. Something definitely wrong with that.
