Runner up has always gotten paid since we started a payout. The team the champ beat in their conference final might be better than the team they beat in the final but we don't arbitrarily reassign the cash then.

You beat who's in front of you. Happens one conference was stronger this year. Hell, the reigning champ is from the OTHER conference so it's not like anything is a given.

You don't want the 'what if' scenario of Shawn winning then don't hold injured players on your roster too long and stay pressed until the end...and you do it yourself.

Otherwise, we've got to have a provision. A refund is just like saying "we all played for free this year"...and we didn't.

Also rook...FYI, all 4 rounds of our playoffs are best of 5.
