Instead of thinking of this randomization (or lack thereof) as a flaw in the system, maybe, just maybe, it was intended to prep us for the 2008 game? If it is going to be needed that we know our alliance teams in and out, why not give us a taste of this collaboration in 2007 (even though it would've been nice knowing it far in advance..
)? Maybe in 2008 we'll have solid alliance teams (I doubt it, but its possible).....?
I know, I know: it's a long shot. (And probably not the reason at all.) But 'tis a funny thought!
