I wholeheartedly agree - to get people's interest, you kinda have to turn the year's game into an elevator speech. AA does not work terribly well for that while still keeping the depth of the game (like the scoring and penalties) intact.

Now that I think about it, perhaps that's why there was no endgame - the referees were too busy monitoring scoring and penalties for another aspect to be added to the game in a manageable way.
