Good morning to you sir.

Don't all teams in the division the same teams except for in 2 games? We lost our division last year because we lost to KC and/or Oakland and the Giants beat them. Seems fair to me.

Sorry Grillz, that reference is old unfortunately. If there's a hilarious name to call the other teams, we've all thought of it.

I always liked the OBGYants.

The ones I like for the division teams are:
Gay-Ain'ts
Dall-Asses
E-Girls

But you still came up with it on your own without seeing it anywhere, right? You didn't know it was already around, so you can feel good about that.

I agree with the above poster, pretty much everyone in our division plays the same teams, I like how it's setup now.

It's fine as it is now... imagine having a division winner with less overall wins than the 2nd place team?? That would be a real head scratcher. With only 6 division games, it would place way too much emphasis on those games.

But the way it is now, a team can go 10-6, losing all of their divisional games, and they could still win the division based on overall record. That makes no sense either, IMO.

Of course that could happen, but chances are pretty slim.

Even if that did happen, I wouldn't have a problem with that vs. a team going 6-10 and winning the division.

It would be a head scratcher no doubt, but I also believe that's based on the precedent that we KNOW that the divisional winner is also the one with the best record regardless. Hell, I'd be all for a tournament at the end of the season with the first seed playing the fourth. It would give us some more football at the end of the year.

I never advocated basing the championship soley on divisional record... rather wanted to see if others thought there was merit in giving some weight to divisional record as a separate entity.

Divisional rivalries might become overemphasized, however. Some good thoughts being thrown out.

BigSKINBauer · 05-10-2006, 12:42 PM

no, i like the fact that we play the same teams as our competition outside of 2 games and it makes more than just 6 games important but those six are still extremely important because you can serve up a loss to someone.

I do think the season could be extended though. Add 1 more bye take away 2 pre season games and play 2 more games every year agaist 2 teams of the 6 that are not played in the conference. If 4 games could be added I would say play 1 full division in each conference and 1 game in the other 5 conferences plus 6 inside the division games being 8+6+6=20 games. ehhh, 20 might be to much but I would like 2 more games a year. The off season is just to long.
