Sports seeding
In North America's NFL, CFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, etc. they always try to
have teams in the playoffs seeded so as to give the best teams
preference, more or less. I suppose the same is true in other sports
on other continents. What if in practice it worked out always bass
ackwards?:) How often would the best most likely have won it all? The
Pittsburg Steelers won the last Super Bowl despite having the worst
seed, and they might not have even been
the best:)
And IYO does the best always win the championship by definition and if
not why is the champion not by definition the best?
