Just something i wanted to ask. When 2 teams are either going at this in a game or the final weeks of season, and one team that is trailing the other team comes back to win either the game or the right to go to the playoffs (in some cases) Do you see this as a team collapsing allowing the other team to catch up with them, or a comeback from the other team.

It depends.  If one team suddenly figures out the other team's defense, then it's a comeback.  If one team starts playing "prevent" and loses the game, it's a collapse.

Depends.  Are we talking baseball?  Is this head to head?  Tampa leads Boston by three games and they play four times to end the season...Boston sweeps to win the division?  That's just baseball.  But if Boston leads the division by seven and Toronto overtakes the divison while only facing Boston three times in that span...that is a combo of Toronto kicking ass while Boston folds.

Wouldn't you think?

QFT.  It can be looked at as both.
