Play each team in group once (2 home / 2 away), the 6 group winners plus the best 2nd place team in each conference all advance to the QF's. Knockout games from there.

Format will work a lot better once there are 32 teams. You can do 8 groups of 4 like the worldcup, with the 2 top teams in each group advancing to the knockout round of 16.

Of the 8 group stage games we’ve played I think we’re 1-7 so far. I think we win 2 this year!
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….
