Funny that.

You don't have to take my word for anything.
Make a night of it. Get a few friends together, ask someone to show you 5+5 minute clips from out-of-town games you haven't seen (preferably with some good stuff in them so it's not totally boring), sometimes with a fight removed from between those two clips, sometimes just some other stuff. Try to guess whether there was a fight, and who won. Keep score. See how often people were right.
For the record btw, I'm not saying it's
impossible that a fight sometime matters.
But why is it that people can't say "that fight mattered" without extrapolating it to "therefore all fights matter and fights are totally awesome"?
(If I'm really bored I'll also sometimes go through the GT's and PGT's and see how often even a single person has claimed a fight mattered. Seems pretty rare to me. I was actually surprised there were 20 fights.)
