Longer regular season

I see the League has proposed extending the regular season by 2 games and shortening the preseason startign in 2011.  I like this idea.  The wins/losses in the preseason are meaningless plus you have the added risk of losing starters to injuries.  There is always the risk of injury in any sport, but it makes more sense to risk that on a game that means something.  What do you think?
