On a different thought pattern... Why even have the bottom teams be allowed to get sent back down? Bottom teams in the league have the edge over middle of the pack because, they get sent back down, destroy the competition again, get called back up, and gained more PP than the middle of the pack did. those bottom teams drop to lower level and wreck havoc?
I know that there are soccer leagues that do the drop and rise strategy.
MLB doesn't send the Oakland A's down to Triple A, if they did the A's would likely wreck havoc on the league.

There’s a huge difference between a team being really strong at one level, but not quite strong enough to stay at the next level and a team that is clearly too strong for a level, but when it comes time for the playoffs suddenly runs a pitching staff of all 40 OVR cards so that they get eliminated and stay in their current level.
