I’ve got a buddy who is from Leicester so I started cheering for them. Then they won the league and things were great. Now we are in a relegation fight and I get to experience a different emotion. But Tete looks great!

Everton is my team in that football, relegation fights can be a little too interesting. ;)

While that's about the business model rather than the sport itself, it does make late season games for poorly performing teams still relevant instead of "we aren't making the playoffs so F it". While a draft is good for parity, tanking is perverse.

The other football could use a salary cap though, another parity measure, that avoids Man City type financial shenanigans.
