Home-field advantage used to mean something, and I suspect that it still does. I do though wonder if it still matters as much as it once did. In the case of our Miami Dolphins, there is an advantage to having all the players practice and then play in the heat that exists in South Florida at any given time during the season. The hottest I have ever been at a live game was a playoff game that took place at the Orange Bowl on January 3rd. At that point in the year, it can either be super nice out in Miami or so damn hot you think that there is zero chance that it can be January.
How important is home-Field advantage?
