I like an idea my friend has.
- Start August 1
- Abolish divisions and have every team play one series against every other team in their league. 14 series, 7 weeks to do one full league-wide round robin.
- Top 7 teams advance to playoffs
- Teams 2-7 play three-game series’ as a play-in round, giving the top team a bye.
- Rest of playoffs goes as usual.
