@ryan2one3@mstdn.ca maybe so. But, it would be better for these programs because they get a better chance to showcase and participate at the highest level of the sport to grow the interest in their own markets, which we all eventually can benefit from. As far as blowout games go, there will be a few more perhaps, but those teams will also play the other low tier teams in the group, which will likely be more competitive contests. As far as what I enjoy, watching, I might be a little different than others by all means, but the score isn’t necessarily my sole reason for watching a game. If it’s a close game between the US - Canada / Sweden - Finland, etc, the score is of course important, but I can also just sit and enjoy watching talent and teams that I normally don’t get to see, and in all honesty, blowout games tend to tell you a lot about the fabric of teams and players - attitudes, handling success/adversity, etc., which I find interesting in any given tournament.
