It seems intuitive to me that if you're the 5 or 6 seed, you expect to cross over. If you're 4th or higher, you feel you deserve to stay home. I think the crossovers do serve a useful purpose since on a given year one region may be stronger than the other. Besides, it was fun to see Wally, the rock star goalie, among other strange faces.
