FedExCup: PGA Playoffs, NONSENSE !!

I love golf and I suck at it, but the FedEx cup is nonsense. Yes there has been excitement within the playoffs. Phil going head to head with Tiger. Stricker in a fairy tale end of season, and Tiger playing some impressive golf…

Admittedly we can’t have a true playoff … we all love match play, but that would take too long for an individual sport …

The beauty of playoffs in other sports is the person on top has some advantage for doing well, whether it be home court advantage, or playing lower seeds, or ???

The problem I see with this FedEx cup is that in the final cumulation of the season … only 5 guys can win??? So why should anyone else play? Why?

If Adam Scott wins, and Tiger comes last (and no one else in the top 5 do anything worthwhile) then Tiger wins?

If Phil wins the event and Tiger comes second then Tiger wins?

It hurts my brain to think of the other configurations … but how can you have a playoff of 30 players when only 5 can win??

WTF … they need to change something …
