Well assuming home winning percentage should be .525 and all other things being equal, the odds on this being random luck and winning only 4 of 24 at home are 6 in 100,000 leagues or 1 in 16,667 leagues. So if it is random you should not see another stretch of 24 playoff finals like this for another eight or nine hundred years.

Glad to hear I'm not crazy and that this is way out of the norm. Which is nice ...

I feel your pain, my record with home field advantage in the playoffs is .500 at best. But I've resigned myself to the fact that my misery is someone else's joy, and I am being a good guy by contributing to their happiness and free credits.
