Don't bother with the world series.  Just take the club that has won the most
games.  Don't bother with the super bowl.  Just take the team with the best
record.  In the event of a tie, we can use something like the Elo system.

It's another kind of championship.

As Bruce once put it, why not have "The World Championship of Dann Corbit's
Basement'?
