BCS Breathes Sigh: FedEx Cup To Retain Goofy Point System

Love this quote from Doug Ferguson's story on the PGA Tour retaining the FedEx Cup points system:

"We think the FedEx Cup did a lot of positive things and met the objectives we set for it," George said Tuesday. "We don't anticipate it changing."

Translation: we got Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson playing on Sunday of the Tour Championship. Objectives met!

I will never care about the FedEx cup.
I wish they spent the money on promoting the Master's.

They sure have wasted a lot of money.
By wasted I mean advertising dollars on the FedEx, that huge clubhouse, golf in the olympics.

Well...

I hope we get as lucky as we did last year regarding the "Playoffs"

I'm really glad to see that the event at Turning Stone is now a FedUp event as per the new schedule.

I'm still fed up with the FedUp Cup.

Refresh me. What is the FedEx Cup?

I think it's a good idea. You can't continually make changes to something like this. It needs at least a couple of years to let things settle in to see if it really works.
