#1 above gets a bye.

The next 4 best teams by points are seeded 3-6 and play Week 14. Winners play 1-2 Week 15. Winners play for championship Week 16. i don't like this at all. the top two teams after 13 weeks (a long season) need to be rewarded as such. not with bye weeks, but with $$$$. having a number 5 or 6 seed win the league will build nothing but animosity amongst the top teams. the "pooper" teams get the consolation bowl (which i might be in)

This would help eliminate teams not trying a little bit more than currently.

More importantly, lasting success comes from great playoff races. LV2 has 4 teams in first at 8-4. More playoff teams means more participation, which means more owners, which means more prizes down the road. would you support opening the league playoffs to all 14 teams? it would keep everyone interested. make for great playoff races. silly, isn't it

TOW prize works. I had 32.5% of TOW winners last week with 5-6 record or worse. Another 15% were 6-5. I doubt Greg will ever use it due to lawyer stuff. ya, the lawyers will get in the way. BUT, it will have very little or no change in the % of deadbeat owners. take a look at the other event to see that.

In LV2, the top 6 teams are 8-4 and 7-5. #6 is only 25 points behind #2.

Most leagues are like this. Not all.

I see no animosity. Only a further test of skill to win the league. silly me.

#1 and #2 could earn part of the prize. That makes sense.

They also are the only ones going for the $100k.

What does the other event do in regards to TOW? I do not follow it any longer.

Being the best thru the regualr season doesn't give any team the right to claim a championship. It gives them an opportunity to compete among the best for it, and to prove that they are best at season's end.

I'm not judging how many teams that should be - whether 2,4 or 6, just that it should include a playoff which ends when the season ends (which for practical purposes is wk 16 in ff).
