I dont understand why sports like the NBA, NHL and MLB have divisions at all? Get rid of the East/West format all together. Play everybody in the league, take the top 8 teams and they make the playoffs. The fans win in that regard because you get to see more variety of teams. For instance, i'm an Indians fan, does MLB reallly think i want to see Cleveland play (no disrespect) the Royals and the Twins 50 times a year? Let me see them play the Dodgers and the Cardinals! The NFL is the only league that needs divisions because of the 16 game schedule. They dont play everybody so there kind of has to be a divisional format. Every other league should just be strait up 1-32 or however many teams are in that said league.

That would be a ton of travel if you did away with divisions. The way the NHL is now, you play everyone not in your conference twice (once at home, one away). That's enough.
