Rules say Playoffs are 7 games but they are really only 5

The example also shows 7 games. I assume this needs to be fixed for 12 game rules as it is misleading and I got trapped in setting my playoff pitchers up as the season wound down. Hal, please help correct this so others don't get misled. Thanks

In the 70's and 80's games it is a best of 5 followed by a best of 7 in the 90's its best of 7 for both series
what the postseason is set for in any league can be seen on the League Standings page it changes for 12 or 24 team leagues

Maybe it is asking too much to expect that the playoff rules are stated correctly wherever they are mentioned (especially in the FAQ/Rules section. ;)

I too was fooled by this. I pitched Roger Moret instead of Steve Carlton in a game 5 because of it. Luckily, my offense bailed me out, and then I had Carlton set to pitch game 1 of the finals.
