The PTI guys were all in favor of David Stern's apparent plan to attempt to create a 5-team division consisting of teams in Europe.
I don't get it. That would give the league 7 divisions of 5 teams. Last time I checked, 7 is a prime number. What does that mean? Well, it's only divisible by 1 and itself. Do any of the major sports leagues have 3 divisions? 5 divisions? Nope. We've seen 4, 6 and 8. Why? They aren't prime, they are divisible by 2, allowing an even split between the AL/NL, AFC/NFC, East/West, etc. So, what - Mr. Stern - are you proposing as a system to determine playoff teams? Maybe we could add an NBA Far East (which would go in the Western Conference, of course) too!

Only Evan would talk about prime numbers & divisibility when discussing a sports topic.
