I would say remove that phrasing so 1 and 2 have bye. 3 vs 6, and 4 vs 5 in wild card round.

Or maybe we look at seeding the wild card teams (4, 5, 6) differently? For example, keep qualifications as they are - 2 non-division winners with the best remaining records and top remaining team with the most All Play wins - and seed 4, 5 and 6 based on All Play wins or something.



Don't think we need to over think this. We have divisions so the division winners should be rewarded. Else why do we have divisions?

We'll never make things perfectly fair. Yep sometimes as the top seed will get stuck playing a really good 6 seed and a mediocre 3 seed will sneak by. It's fantasy - the randomness in the week to week is part of the joy....

I'm game for 3 division winners and 3 best remaining all play as wildcards.

The choose your own opponent leaves way to many options open for collusion/alliances that could be detrimental to future trades and general league morale.
