Nice idea in a way, but too problematic (I think). For example, what if a super-team refuses promotion? It would seem boring to many of us to keep winning easily, but what if some people don't find this boring (or just want to frustrate others)?

Nevertheless, I can relate to what you're saying. What if my team wins its division with a barely .500 record and then goes on to win the WS and then are promoted? We probably don't yet belong at the higher level, but there we'll go since we won it all.

I doubt there's an ideal solution to this (is there ever?) so I can accept the current system until someone can think of something better.
