Two 6 Division teams wouldn't work any better???? I have finished 2nd in my division many times with 95+ wins while another division winner could have 84 wins. You would still have mismatches so it does nothing to solve the problem. Scrapping divisions completely is the only way to solve the problem. Everyone plays a balanced schedule then 1 plays 4 and 2 plays 3 if you want the real top 4, or go top 3 with 2 playing 3 and #1 gets first round bye. Divisions were only made for travel purposes and supposedly rivalries. We don't have either here in fantasy camp!

The problem is that 12-team leagues would have to play either 154 game schedules or 176 in order for everyone to have a completely balanced schedule. Two 6 team divisions work better, 18 against each team in your division and 12 against each of the others.

My first 100 win team faced a wild card that I had beaten 10 of 12. Needless to say, I lost.
