While I think settling the matter on the field is nice, we have a potentially huge series of single game playoffs in the very unlikely event of 6+ teams having identical records. With the ability to have 10+ divisions of 10+ teams in a league, there is the possibility that just determining which teams go to the playoffs could take 1-2 weeks. That's why I suggested a single game with supplemental tie breakers.
Again, any system ... as long as it's consistent ... would be better than two random teams being selected. But, then, isn't random selection a system in its own right? (POOF! He disappears in a puff of logic.)
