Yea the fan survey is the only reason I'm going after the playoffs. #5 seed is better financially, short term (which needs to get fixed by the way), but I haven't been able to sell out my arena all season. I'd love to add on to my arena, but if I can't sell it out right now, there isn't much reason too.
Next season will be interesting. This league has gotten MUCH stronger this season. There's probably 3 or 4 teams better than Schrodas was last year (he's fighting relegation this season by the way).
