It was like 95.78 to 95.78. Both benches had equal number of points too it like 42.1 each (first tie-breaker). Crazy crazy game, man the arguments over that one were heated. We took out homefield advantage as a tie breaker the following year.
Whats wrong with just having a tie

If the game gets through the list of tiebreakers than it is a tie. At some point in the season, you need tiebreakers to figure out who makes the playoffs and who doesn't, why not have individual game tiebreakers?
I have a tie in each of my yahoo leagues. They go down in the records as ties... It's pretty easy to see who's ranked where.

I think you completely missed his point.
He's not saying that they can't figure out the records when there's a tie, he's saying if there are tiebreakers in one aspect, why not have tiebreakers in others?

I think you missed his point. There's no need for tiebreakers in games when over the course of the season the win-loss records will probably work themselves out. Especially when the unneccesary tiebreakers lead to hurt feelings between league mates.
