A four years ago, the mfl had one team get home field advantage from a coin flip. That next year we installed a tie breaker based on point allowed hoping to not get to a coin flip again. The next year we had a team forfeit because they were going to play a game and loose big, and drop a playoff spot, so they decided to take a forfeit and only only lost by two points keeping their seating.
To prevent this from happening we voted to make forfeit count against a team on points allowed more then 2 to 0. We voted on 28 - 0 , an td and xp each quarter.
hence, the history behind 28-0.
Perfect, no. But an attempt to improve the league one step at a time.
