I agree in principle, but conferences don't play round robins anymore.

Sadly, with the playoff they will feel more entitled to

I recognize everyone signed off on it, I am just saying I think it would

Agree. But as ecp mentions below, it' s about money and power.

It's all about money and control.

P5 functions like a cartel. Cartels and monopolies are the bane of the free
