2 rule changes I think we should make for next year:
1. To try and avoid ties, I think we should use fractional points (e.g., each yard for a RB/WR is worth 0.1 rather than needing 10 yards to get a full point).
2. The primary playoff tiebreaker should be playoff seed. The 2 options are seed and head-to-head record. Yahoo's default and the one we use is head-to-head record (seed is the second tiebreaker). In the unlikely event of a tie in the playoffs, I think the winner should be the team with the better overall regular season, not based on the outcome of one or two regular season games.
Thoughts?

This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena.
