I'm not even in Robert's division. My team stunk last year too but I made some good trades and collected a lot of players/picks and am very competitive now. I was just saying that because of uneven scheduling and therefore some people getting to beat up on weaker teams it seems that it would be more fair to have wildcards come from any division. But that's just my 2 cents. This league doesn't seem to like change as long as I've been here. Hence the injuries. I really wish other teams would speak up about those because I know other people hate the injuries.
