We're basically fiends and they're the dealers, we'll whine and about quality, then get our parlay in, pick our fantasy team, and they'll count the money.

I tend to agree, but since 2000 only 7 teams have played more than 20 playoff games, and 7 teams have played less than 10 games. There are many usual suspects at the top and bottom. Could be explained by management.
