Schedule Question
« on: July 28, 2012, 10:35:56 AM »
In looking at the schedule we had/have this year, a couple of questions have come to mind:

1.  In the rules it states we will have a 20 game schedule, yet in Fantrax it shows a 22 game regular season schedule.  Here is the info from the rules: Regular Season
There will be twenty regular season head to head matchups, each lasting for one week, with the exception of extended weeks for Opening Week and All Star Week. The week will begin on Monday and end on Sunday. Which is correct?

2.  I haven't reviewed any other teams schedule, but the Giants.  Some interesting info:  the Giants schedule includes 2 games with 6 teams not in the West Division, but only 1 game with West Division foes.  Additionally, the Giants didn't see two of it's division rivals (Ariz and LA) until weeks 14 and 15, perhaps too late for some teams.  That doesn't make sense to me. 

     Would we as a league not want each team to play it's own division foes at least 2-3 times during the regular season?  Now I know the schedule won't and shouldn't be changed for this season, but in the future, wouldn't it be better to have a schedule where each team plays it's own division foes two to three times, and all other teams once?  If Houston moves to the AL next year (?), then each league would have 15 teams, with 3 divisions of 5 each.  Each team could play it's own division rival three times (say early, middle,  and late in the season), and the other teams once, for a total of  a 22 game schedule (12 vs division + 10). 

I would think/hope we all agree that the scheduling needs to be looked at more closely for future years, and to create more emphasis on winning your division.  Playing each division rival 3 times would help ensure the true division winner, IMO.

Feedback would be appreciated.

We will be working off of what is shown in Fantrax. 22 weeks plus 2 weeks playoffs.  World Series to be scored by hand.

There are 3 options with Fantrax scheudling:
1. Evenly divided matchups, regardless of division
2. Only matchups within division
3. Manual scheduling

We can definitely do manual scheduling if we brainstorm for ideas/ guidelines together. I'd be more than happy to do the leg-work once we have a roadmap. This is definitely a good start.

We will not be moving Houston to the AL in AFB as long as we are on Fantrax. Because we are in two different leagues, this is will result in bye weeks. If we move to ProFSL scoring, then we can do that, but let's not plan on that for now.

Thanks for the quick response Kenny.

I'd be more than willing to help if we go the manual work.  Personally, I believe since the divisions send the winner to the playoffs, the schedule should be heavier with the division play. 
Good to know re: Houston.
