Fed Ex Cup Playoffs - Intriguing or Boring?

Fed Ex Cup Playoffs - Intriguing or Boring?
So far, the Fed Ex Cup Playoffs have gotten mixed reviews. Many people don't think they should even have the playoffs. Many people think the rules need to be changed. I agree that it's a little ridiculous that Heath Slocum was 124th entering The Barclays, and after his win he's in third. That is definitely too much of a jump.

I still think we need to give the playoffs time to evolve. Of course it's not a perfect system yet, but it's only the third year. Many of the top pros wouldn't even be playing during this stretch if not for the playoffs. Its not nearly as exciting as one of the majors, but at least it provides the players with extra incentive to accumulate points throughout the season, and then bring their "A" games to the final playoff events.

Most likely, it will be just another way for Tiger to add 10 million per year to his account for the next 8-10 years. When it comes down to it, the Fed Ex Cup Champion has to play well during the year to get to the playoffs, and then play great during crunch time to win it all. Overall, for golf fans, it provides another reason to pay attention to the tour throughout the season, and especially during the four playoff events.

I'm not sure what Jim Mora (video below) thinks of the golf playoffs.
