Due to the overwhelming response in pretty much agreeing to the Playoff Format change it is a go.
Also instead of Two six team Divisions that we had in the past myself and Steve went ahead due to the change and have gone to a total of 6 Division with 4 teams in each division. So we now have 3 Division in each league with 4 teams each. This will give each team a better shot at winning their division and getting some money.
So now it is like this, each league will have 3 Division Champions with the two with the best record getting automatic byes and the 3rd Division Champion will play on Wildcard weekend in a home game against the worst Wildcard team in their particular league-(This is the old NFL Playoff Format before they went to 4 Divisions of 4 teams each in their particular conference). It is still a total of 6 teams making the playoffs in each league for a total of 12 in both league.
You will now play each member of your Division twice for a total of 6 games and you will play the other 6 against members of your league. Again no inter league play until the Super Bowl.
The league payouts are now like this:
Division Champions-($50.00s each, a total of $300.00s), Individual Regular Season Power Ranking Highest Team-($50.00s each, a total of $100.00s), AFL and NFL Champions-($200.00s each, a total of $400.00s) and Super Bowl Champion $300.00s. Grand total in pot is $1200.00s with $100.00s taken out for league maintainance-(ie Web Sites, trophies ect.) leaving Money Pot at $1100.00s.
