Association Football - It looks highly likely that Premier League team, West Ham, will be relegated to the second tier of the English pyramid system, called the Championship.
What does this mean for the club? Well, they'll receive a serious haircut in terms of revenue and they will need to sell off many of their most expensive players.
I like promotion/relegation, and this is what's wrong with the NBA and other leagues like it. At certain points in the season, teams know they cannot win the title and they stop playing hard, knowing they cannot go down. If there was even a chance the bottom team may drop, then watch the fur fly, they'd be scrambling for the wins. For the record, the team with the worst record in the latest season is the Washington Wizards with a regular season 17 wins and 65 losses. Why can't another team be given the chance of buying them out and potentially moving the team to another city? It'd keep the league on their toes.
