For years, we had 3 divisions, and 7 teams made the playoffs. Twelve teams are in the league. Only the 1 seed gets a bye. The issue my league is having, one of the division winners usually has a crappy team and gets the 3 seed because of the division title while usually the 4 or 5 seed usually has the better overall record. The 3 seed always seems to get the advantage.
Just asking for advice, do any of you do anything different in your leagues to prevent this or chait up. When I brought up the issue the commissioner said then get rid of the divisions if we dont want this to happen. I think thats silly but just asking around.
