goal is to win one game in playoffs so you aren't the worst team. Worst team will be the only team that didn't win a playoff game
I agree with this (aside from your spelling error/misuse of the word). Never understood the logic of a consolation bracket. If you win, you should be done. In two of my other leagues, if you dont make the playoffs, your season is over. In my fourth (and final) league, it operates the same way you just described, where if you lose you move on. We do this because the loser of that league pays a penalty.
But yeah, having a consolation bracket doesnt exactly make sense to me.
