I have to agree with Applespider on this one. Keeping the conferences how they are gives meaning to the Super Bowl.
Besides they already realigned the two conferences just 5 years ago.

On another note eliminating the second game against a divisional rival, gets rid of the redemption game.
Case in point the KC/Chargers series. After the KC beat the Chargers in the first game Chiefs defensive end Tamba Hali called the Chargers "a finesse team". This gave the Chargers extra motivation in their 20-9 victory over KC in December.
If the second game is removed when they play again next year, comments like Hali's have no meaning since the teams are different from year to year.
