The Pointless Realignment Outpost


Lee.

Recommended Posts

Big12 playoff chatter once again. Big10 & co. want them to have 12 teams for that.

I've said it before, might as well steal UCF & USF while they're out there, move into not only the southeast neighbourhood, yet Florida recruiting backyards also.

Of course they'd never do that... I read they'd like UConn & probably Cincinnati (since they want a bit of that region & didn't bite on Louisville when they were available).

I believe adding 2 teams to Major League Baseball is not enough, so why not add 10, and while we're at it, let's shorten the schedule to 150 games. There would be 8 divisions of 5 teams. There would be the NL/AL South, NL/AL North, NL/AL East, and the NL/AL West. The teams would go as following:

NL North

-Milwaukee

-Louisville (Expansion)

-Chicago

-Cincinnati

-St. Louis

NL South

-Miami

-Atlanta

-Nashville (Expansion)

-Tampa Bay (From AL)

-Memphis (Expansion)

NL East

-New York

-Philadelphia

-Washington

-Pittsburgh

-Montreal (Expansion)

NL West

-Los Angeles

-San Francisco

-Colorado

-Arizona

-Salt Lake City (Expansion)

AL North

-Cleveland

-Detroit

-Minnesota

-Chicago

-Indianapolis (Expansion)

AL South

-Texas

-Houston

-Kansas City

-New Orleans (Expansion)

-Oklahoma City (Expansion)

AL East

-New York

-Boston

-Baltimore

-Toronto

-Charlotte (Expansion)

AL West

-Oakland

-Anaheim/Los Angeles

-Seattle

-Portland (Expansion)

-San Diego (From NL)

Each team will play 150 games. 40 games will be vs division members, with 10 games vs each member (5 at home, 5 away), 90 vs same league members, with 6 games vs each team (3 at home, 3 away), and 20 games vs 1 inter-league division, with 4 games vs each team (2 at home, 2 away).

As for the playoffs, each league will now have 8 teams, with 4 division winners, and 4 wild card teams. There will be a best-of-5 game division series, followed by a best-of-5 quarterfinal series. Then there will be a best-of-7 championship series, leading up to the best-of-7 World Series.

Is this what you guys are discussing over there in the refuge?

"And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life... You have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sure. But don't worry... you will someday."

Fantasy realignment proposal threads aren't looked at very favorably here.

You should post your idea in this thread and discuss with the brain surgeons there:

Since some of you monkeys are bored as crap, and since no one likes pointless realignment posts crapping up real threads, I've created this thread specifically for you to post your pointless, unrealistic, and borderline asinine realignment ideas here.

Anyone from this point on who posts anything realignment-related in a real thread from hereon in deserves every amount of crap the rest of the community decides to heap upon them.

Go hog wild.

I'd probably put a team or three in London, one in Pyongyong, two or three on the moon, and one smack in the middle of the sun.

Expand the season to 200 games, but build in extra travel days so teams can travel to these new locations, so the season would probably take 400 days or so. Since it would span more than one earth year, it wouldn't be able to start and stop at the same time anymore, so it would always be staggered, so the first season under this format would start in April 2018 and the Worlds series would be in May 2019, then the next season would start September 2019 and end in October 2020, and so on.

They wouldn't be able to refer to seasons by year anymore, so each season would get a name. It could be named after world leaders, or former players, or they could even sell the naming rights. So season 1 under this format could be the Sanders Season, season two could be the Griffey Season, season three could be the JVC Kaboom Box Season, and so on and so forth.

Laughed so hard at this, tears came out of my eyes.

It is what it is.

I forgot to add that since the seasons would go through winters, every team would need to either build an indoor stadium, or play all of their winter games at the ultra-mega-super domed stadium complex that the league would construct in Des Moines. I'm thinking a huge structure that has enough fields in it that at least 15 games could be played at the same time. The seating would be all around, so if your team was playing on one of the inner fields, you wouldn't be able to see too well, but there would be an app so you could watch the action on your mobile device in the comfort of your stadium seat. I'm imaging this like 5x bigger than the biggest nascar track, and the individual baseball fields would be separated by walls on the inside. Each field would have a unique configuration, so one might have a "green monster", one might have bizarre angles, and a few would be elevated so if you fall over the divider wall making a play, you would fall right in to the field of another game that's going on.

One more thing - since most players would probably be not respond well to the intense heat while playing in the sun, there would be a series of special drafts throughout the season where teams can draft extra players from other teams rosters and "sacrifice" them so as to protect their stars from almost certain incineration.

Would all these games be broadcast on the same channel at the same time, too?

Um no, that would be silly.

They'd air sequentially, with all but the first game on tape delay. Since there's so many games and only 24 hours in an earth day, each day of games would take around 3 days to broadcast, so a full 200 game season spanning 400 days would take around 3 years to get through, so the further along you go, the more behind you are. So for example, the North Korean Motors season would air while part of the Creamer season (3 seasons post Korean Motors) was being played. Of course there could potentially be years of spoilers out there, so anyone who goes to Des Moines will have to use spoiler tags in their posts.

It's really the only way.

Makes sense, but would there be any problems with jerseys when teams travel to play at the Sun?
