BCS Should be Abolished
A playoff system is best suited for the NCAA football championship. There is almost always a surprise team in one of the BCS games, and there are frequently upsets. There can be a team who does not make it to the championship game who is truly the best team. If the BCS took the polls out of its formula, it would be more likely to get it right. Writers have biases and those biases show strongly in the polls. If we are to leave something held so high in society to the BCS, we should get rid of it....
Resolved: The Woman's National Basketball Association should rescend their dress code.
The dress code should be abolished so that the WNBA can be able to more successfully market their 'product' by allowing their women to wear more comfortable and attractive clothing during their contests. Revenues, including TV contracts, marketing, and ticket sales would drastically increase with the new outlook of the WNBA. The league would become much like what Women's Beach Volleyball is in the Olympics: The Conerstone of Entertainment. In this tough economic climate, the WNBA needs a boost....

Cricket is a better sport than cricket v2.0
I thank PetIn_the_Box in advance for accepting this debate. In my opinion, cricket is better than baseball as far as sports go. Here is why: 1) Cricket bats are more fun to play with than baseball bats. The flat surface allows for more variety in shot selection. With baseball bats, all anyone can do is hit it straight on, and that is not fun. 2) Bowling is better than pitching. Though there are plenty of different pitches (i.e. curveball, sinker, etc), there is not much else you can do...
When Running a Seeded Tournament, the Best Players Should be Playing the Worst Players
In most sports, a tournament is held at the end of the season where the top 16, 32, or 64 teams are arranged into a tournament. These players are already ranked by their season games. My arguments is that to have the fairest tournament, the Best Plays Worst method should be used. Here's a list of the different methods: 1. Pairing In this method, the #1 team plays the #2 team, the #3 team plays the #4 team, etc. In the second round, the winners of the top two games play each other. The pattern...

I think that the Giants will win the superbowl
My argument is simple. I think that the giants will win the superbowl. This debate is not about whether or not they will actually win the superbowl, just about what I think. Because i have never met my opponent, nor is he reading my mind, you should vote affirmative because i am telling you what i think. Good luck to whoever wants to take this debate....

RESOLVED: Wrestling (High School), as a sport, best prepares one for spontaneous combat

It is because I agree with this quote by Socrates that I urge you to affirm the following resolution: Wrestling, as a sport, best prepares one for spontaneous combat. Definitions: (do not accept this debate if you disagree with definitions; I do not want to debate a semantics argument regarding wrestling as the WWE for example) Wrestling: a sport in which two opponents struggle hand to hand in order...
