See Prince, if you don't like the sport (nor aren't enamoured with it, anyhow) because of that, it's fine, I just would hate to see overt changes made to entice ignorant Americans with no attention span
(and obviously the reasons you have don't relate to attention span)
However, I think an important thing to note is that in football, the random element is taken out more than most sports in the domestic leagues because in most countries there is not a 'Final' to determine the champion, simply the team with the most points wins the title which means the aberrations that happen through a season are evened out, almost.
Obviously it doesn't apply to the WC, the Champions League etc, and that's why you will see a Porto win the Champions League and a Greece win the European Championships. But for all the whining about the monopolisation of the English league, the fact is it's invariably won by the best side.
The only country I can think of who don't crown their champions in this way are America and Australia (enough said
), there are probably others but
