I disagree... as the draft position is based upon the regular season performance. Being promoted is an advantage in and of itself, it wouldn't be fair to have the loser of the finals get a crappy draft slot and the winner get promoted and get a better draft slot. I understand you are now in a harder league, but if you really belong there you should be able to avoid relegation, and if you don't do well you'll get a great draft pick next season.

I agree....you had to draft based on where you finished in your league before the "re-organization"....it was far more equitable that way, and if a team can't hack it in the higher division, it shouldn't take too long to find out!!! :)
