Every season i find my team is the direct rival of two of my conference teams. Asuming this teams will try to win teir rival to mantain fans enthusiasm and get the stadium full, this is a disadvantage for my team and many others in the same situation.
Is it that dificult to make some chages so one team just have another as his rival? If there is an important reason not to do it please explain it.
Thank you very much and sorry for my english, i am not sure to have explained myself correcly.

It isn't very realistic for each team to have a seperate rival. The rivals are calculated based on complicated coding that takes in to account your previous seasons records and how you went against each team and point difference etc. It would simply be unrealistic to say that you cannot have more than 1 rival.

I don´t mind if my rival is superior than my team. My problem is that two teams have ME as their rival. They will try to spend their enthusiasm an alineate their beter players to beat me as i do with my rival, but two teams doing that with me is more than i can afford. Last two seasons i ended 5th of my conference, i am not good enought to have two teams of eight in my conference doing special effords to beat me. With yust one it is enought.

At least you know which teams will try and beat you, and that way you can concentrate on winning those games.

but those teams will sacrifice more to win the games, maybe even their other game in the week or the following. And i don't think that my and his "non" rivals don't want to win against him but they don't have a extra motivation to sacrifice anything for the win.
