I have an idea...care to share yours? SE Lar Rio CC NE Miss Bugs Allen Tex NW Ra City Whit MO Tulsa SW Ariz Col AMA ODE Judging by the map and what would make the most geographical sense is ito keep Bucks/Bees/Rayz, Bugs/Americans/Brahmas and Thunder/Mavs/Oilers together since all are within a few hours of each. Since the Kings are out there solo they would need to stay where the Bugs or Oilers go, personally I say stay with the Bugs. I define being the best as competeing against the best and the Brahmas/Kings are 2 in the tops of that catagory. Granted the Rush is way up there too and one would think Col would be the most obvious choice but now Ariz has to connect and I could def see them with Col/AMA b4 heading south to Rio and MO seems alot closer to SD than AZ. Now that i've really confused everyone let's throw ODE in there. They could go either way now (west or south) since the NM link to AZ is no longer there. One division will end up with only 3 teams. Who oh who will it be????

I do think Colorado will move to the south. Texas will stay in the South. I went to a fight the other night and a hockey game broke out. ~Rodney Dangerfield

Makes the most sense for a three team division, which of course means Texas stays. Rapid City and Colorado need to stay together. I would put those two in with Wichita and Independence. AZ is the fly in the ointment. No natural fit for them, but maybe an Amarillo, Arizona, Odessa three team division would work. Move Allen in to OKC's slot in the NorthEast.

So where does TX go? Where they were last year made no sense at all with so many other clubs much closer by and imo will make less sense now with the gap closed even more with Allen right next door. + still say Tul should be right there with Whi & MO. Just thinking of the economics of geography.

With only 15 teams scheduling and who makews the playoffs is a whole lot easier with a two conference setup (7 & 8 teams respectively). Top four in each conference go to the playoffs. Lots more games that are "4-point" games. Keeps all natural rivalries intact (except Bulls-Bugs for a "North-South lineup) Or an "East-West lineup that has 8 teams in the West (RC, COL, ARI, ODE, AMA, LAR, RGV, CC) and 7 in the East (TUL, WIC, IMO, TEX, MEM, BOS, ATX).

I like the E/W format better than the N/S. 4 div would work with 3 in one, it did in 05. It's just who'll be way out in left field with the line-up?

I've found the "idea" I had for the line-up not only on 2 other boards + in Rajan's Blog as well with both stating the League is considering the same.too funny
