Hello all,

Aha! One of my favorite points that I think most of us would sort of  
agree on.

But, some leagues play too many league games to allow much of this,  
like 28 out of the max of 34(36). Some leagues play a better balance,  
say 22 out of 34 or somesuch.  It would take some creative thinking  
but it could be done, but much like getting rid of the BCS in  
football, it probably wont happen because of traditions and  
rivalries.... 4 games head to head in league would have to go, I guess.

In basketball, the conferences typically play 15-18 games out of about  
30 allowing for much more interconference play and some nationally  
exciting games on prime tv like UCLA-Duke, etc, etc.  In hockey these  
premier matchup in mid and late season would be great for the game and  
get it national exposure.... just my 2 cents (or maybe 4 cents  
allowing for rising gas prices).

Regards to all from the CA central coast,
