Does your league reshuffle divisions? (1 Viewer)

last years divisions winners have a division draft.Fun way to make fun of the crappy teams, shakes things up, and keeps divisions fresh
That sounds like fun
We just passed a rule this year to reshuffle our divisions (dynasty) every 3 years. This year was the first, but we let the bottom teams in each division draft the divisions. One of them drafted the toughest he could get. It will make for some good banter over the next few years.

We tried that once....only once. Letting worse team pick divisions that is.That didn't turn out so good. Let's just say there is a reason some teams a very bad.
 
If super competitive balance is your goal then you shouldn't be using divisions (or head-to-head) in the first place anyway.

Obviously, the divisions were put there for fun and in a $100 league, they should be. There is a lot of luck and a lot of good/bad breaks involved in fantasy football and if you hadn't been on the wrong end of them for a couple of years running then I question whether you'd be bringing this topic up at all. It just comes off as being a sore loser.

We're in the 8th year of our 12-team league and we have a division that is clearly the strongest (4 of the 6 best teams for at least four years running). I brought up the idea of re-shuffling divisions last year because I was worried about them being bitter over it but they were the first to shoot it down. Everyone enjoys the rivalries and trash-talking amongst their division rivals that have built up over the years. You brought up college football as an analogy. How many Bama/Florida/LSU/Georgia/Arkansas/Auburn fans do you think want their team to move to the Big East?

Enjoy the competition, rivalries, and good/bad breaks. That's why you joined a h2h league with divisions in the first place.

As an added rant, this is why straight "keep every player you can fit within the roster size" dynasty leagues are far inferior to contract/salary leagues that add more to the mix. It's way to easy for the good teams to stay good.
