2021 will be a chaotic one for the league. That's the thing to be ready for. The new sim is going to change quite a few dynamics and in ways we can't necessarily predict right now. There will be teams who rise and fall immediately based entirely on changing the engine. No team will have a huge advantage in terms of information and hard facts either. It's going to create a lot of positive and negative response as people find out that things they hated and loved are gone and have been replaced by what we hope is better.
Beyond that, the E word is not far away. That's right. Expansion. The dreaded inevitability of being able to say "oh god these 60 person classes are so small". The league is overflowing with talent already and the move to 16 teams has been long worked towards by a great many people in the league. One of the most important aspects that will come from this is a wild change form our entire history. That's right....divisions. And with divisions, realignment. And with that...arguments, chaos, and 16 billion articles. Moving to 4 divisions of 4 teams each will have a profound effect on basically everything in the league's structure and will finally give us real 8 team playoffs!!!!I have no earthly idea how all that is going to shake out and what crazy ideas people are going to pull out, let alone which ideas will gain support or be hated. So much could happen. The world (of ISFL) will never be the same.
