Do all the major N American sports use a divisional and conference structure?
Teams play the other teams in their division most often, and other teams in their conference occasionally? Will a team have scheduled games against all other teams in the competition?
How did this system develop? Who decides what a balanced schedule is? Is it the same every year? For example will a baseball team always play X games against their divisional rivals?
Obviously answers are going to vary based on sport but my limited knowledge makes it all look very similar from here.
