Re: The Divisions...
I really like this idea, however the implication may get complicated... let's just see how this plays out.
Some suggestions:
1) What if teams attending could submit a form that had one(or any amount really) team they wanted to be in the same division with and why. This would be the basis for division formation. Then some sort of rule would make up who stays and who moves divisions for the following year. This would guarantee teams the ability to play against teams they don't normally see, but still have partnerships with. (ex. 2791 and 1726, etc.)
2) At the beginning of the first year, all veteran teams would be assigned a division based on some random algorithm that accounted for frequency of attendance of teams (to prevent imbalances). At the end of Week 5 once all teams have qualified, any imbalances would be accounted for with the non-permanent placement of the rookie qualifiers in the divisions. Each year afterwards, the teams that attended championships the previous year would remain in that division and teams that did not attend would be redistributed throughout the divisions, with rookie teams once again providing the balancing of the numbers.
Thoughts? (P.S. Great idea Joe.)
