If it's Tuesday, this much be Cleveland. I'd rather add two expansion teams and convert to four 8 team, geographically defined divisions with the winners to meet in the playoffs. You'd play everybody in your division 14 times and be paired up with one of the other divisions on a rotating basis so you'd play everyone withing 3 years, not every year. The playoffs would have the best teams and get right down to business after an old-fashioned pennant race that would dominate the headlines in August and September. There'd be no cold weather baseball. I'll file that under 'N' for "not happening". :( [/QUOTE]
