I like ties in the regular season, because as a result of the ties, there are fewer tied teams at the end of the season, resulting in fewer tie breaking scenarios to determine seeding in the playoffs, some of which are tied to concepts that are not intuitive. Inevitably, without ties, there are a bunch of 10-6 teams that end up tied that require a series of tie breaking rules to untie the knot so to speak.
If two teams are tied after 70 minutes, let them be tied. Is kicking a field goal or flipping a coin any justification for giving them a full game advantage in the standings. Of course not.
If you don’t like ties, then advocate for “sudden death” (as in the playoffs) and determine the winner by actually playing the game.
Giving both teams a chance to score and re-tie the game in OT is a good thing. If they remain tied after 10 minutes, so be it.
Would you advocate in tied basketball games for determining winners by a free throw shooting contest or perhaps a game of HORSE? Of course not.
In baseball would you advocate for a post game homerun derby instead of a tenth inning? Of course not.
And just to be consistent I find settling soccer ties with penalty kicks less than satisfactory.
If you disagree, just tie me up.
