Okay, but there are ways to easily do that without extending the season.<BR/><BR/>Just one example: 2 games against each out of conference team, 3 games against in conference but out of division teams, 5 games against division rivals. 80 games.<BR/><BR/>Another simple solution is actually addressing the root cause of the problem and contracting the league. There are easily six teams in this league that unless they are winning Cups have no real support are not economiclly viable. Eliminate them, get the talent level back up a little, and return to the two conference and two division set-up.<BR/><BR/>2 games against out of conference, 4 games against out of division, and 7 games against division rivals makes for 83 games.<BR/><BR/>I honestly don't think you can be serious with suggesting going to 100 games. If you are, you are completely out of touch with the reality of what players want or can even physically handle.<BR/><BR/>I mean, I'm totally willing to say the suggestion of eliminating teams is unrealistic, even if it does actually address the real problem here. But I have to say, going to a 100 game season is even more unrealistic.<BR/><BR/>Being nuts is a bit entertaining to read, but you can't be serious and be in touch with reality on this one.dbushikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16489524808263104274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-3137324883157411992007-07-20T08:59:00.000-07:002007-07-20T08:59:00.000-07:00Hey, nobody gets diarrhea for two years!Knock your...Hey, nobody gets diarrhea for two years!<BR/><BR/>Knock yourself out, though. :)Earl Sleekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15843720035500316419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-44977468468466607282007-07-19T22:56:00.000-07:002007-07-19T22:56:00.000-07:00Earl, I want you to remember what you just said wh...Earl, I want you to remember what you just said when I'm comparing Scott Thornton's playing ability to diarrhea.RudyKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05935847996131016457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-91241882123803237482007-07-19T20:33:00.000-07:002007-07-19T20:33:00.000-07:00How about hockey double-headers?
