Taking a look at MY NFL!! 36 TEAMS!!!!

36 Teams (Four new expansion teams: Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Honolulu, (East Coast Team, England? Canada?))...some type of global expansion
18 Regular Season Games
2 Bye Weeks
10 Playoff Teams/Conference
AFC (East Coast)/NFC (West Coast) (i.e. team relocation to correct conference, San Diego now NFC, etc)
Season Length: Aug 26-Jan 9
Bye Weeks: Week 4-16 (some teams get Thanksgiving byes to be with family, rotate every year)
4 teams get off Christmas week, rotate every year  (teams play pre-xmas whether that is M, T, W, R, F, S)
Addition of game on Christmas
Rivalries remain intact....rivalry week teams must play rival (Xmas time every year) CLE vs PIT, CHI vs GB, SF vs DAL, PHI vs NYG...
5 team divisions will play each year to match up (AFC East #1 vs AFC North #1...etc)
Bottom five teams gets easiest schedule the next year

-that is the way the divisions should be broken down b/c it is GEOGRAPHICALLY SAVVY.
-the way these conferences are as of today we are relying on the big city teams in the NFC (LA, CHI, DAL, HOU, SD, NO) to pull their weight b/c with the addition of 3 expansion teams in one conference that conference will suffer (i.e. be weaker) for at least a few years

-please note this is subject to change b/c I don't know if JAX and/or BUF will be relocating
