I think it gives teams too much of an advantage especially over higher ranked teams who have to play other higher ranked teams first, and that takes a big toll on them physically. I really don't think it's fair. I know they are trying to be like the NFL where they emphasize winning their division or conference but I think at least the NFL has more parody as far as strength of schedule and talent so people don't have to try and guess as much who is better and who deserves what.
