[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 887705, member: 7261"] While I get the point you are trying to make, saying that "only one of those teams wins a SB" is assuming or concluding quite a few things: [LIST] [*]a team that made a trade wins the SB [*]a team that made a trade doesn't win a SB this year, but how about next year? [*]a trade gives you a 1/32 chance of getting you a SB win [*]a team that didn't make a trade will win a SB next year, because they didn't waste a draft pick on a trade this year. [/LIST] Taking that further, saying those teams that make a trade, don't win a SB but have nothing to show for it? So winning more games, getting further into the playoffs, playing in the SB mean nothing, if you don't win a SB? In a normal year, more games played (playoffs) makes teams more money. Not to mention that in many cases, you have that player in the next season or possibly a compensatory pick if wasn't under contract beyond this year. If the Packers found trades that improved their team this year, next and beyond, I'm not going to worry about whether that trade won us a SB or not. Because I can say the exact same thing in a reverse argument: "That draft pick that we didn't trade, did that win us a SB? I get it, the ultimate prize is winning the SB, but if success is strictly measured by that, 31 teams are losers every season. [/QUOTE]
