Postseasons in which damn near every team in the league gets to compete for a championship, even if some of them lost or tied more games than they won.

Oh yeah, that's my favourite too. In fact, I'd like to see our leagues organized the same way that futbol leagues abroad are organized. The leageas are tiered. There is the top tier league with say a dozen teams and then a second tier league with two divisions of a dozen teams each and a third tier league with maybe four divisions. At the end of each season the top teams in each tier below the top one graduate to the higher tier while the bottom teams in each tier drop down to the tier below. That learns 'em I tell ya! Needless to say, this is an impossible dream here where we have kindergarten arrangements - everyone wins a prize of some sort as noted above. .

You can keep that barely-much-of-an-improvement to football, or futbol, or foosball, but I'll still take a legitimately-earned, legitimately-contested World Series. (For that matter, baseball, away with regular-season interleague play! The proper place for interleague play is the World Series...)
