There are 12 teams, all experts. Surprisingly, most experts tend to do the same things. I am not sure if it is psychological in that they do not want to look foolish, or that if they do something wacky they will no longer be considered experts.
Note especially for someone like me this is no trivial factor, given that my "reputation" in the industry is still being defined. It is one thing for Ron Shandler to come up with a new plan it is quite another for me to do so in my first expert league....
