Just tossing this out there...
|
|
|
|
... what about the idea of having two free agency signings on Sundays?
The first would be the normal 9am signing (Minnesota time), and then have a second signing period two hours later at 11am? This second signing period would be one hour before kickoff and would ensure that teams can react to last minute injury news as well as if they were outbid for their first choice(s) at 9am.
I'm not really seeing a downside here, as it ensures competitive rosters and it provides more opportunities to spend that Hack Silver. |

"defeats the purpose"... really?
|
|
|
|
did you read my post and the reasons for it, or did you just puke out your usual negativity?
you should counter the actual points made. it would at least give you some credibility. |

| I think if it is that big of an issue for a couple of people in our league, we could just take away the 9 a.m. one and make one at 11 am. The part about defeating the purpose is that it defeats the purpose to have at 9 a.m. when injury reports are not yet given out. |

the only one with the issue
|

|

| is the one who has already been kicked out of the league. Brad's opinion doesn't matter anymore. he earned that the hard way, too. |

the point
|
|
|
|
| part of this leagues uniqueness is the free agency system, i agree to back it up to 11 in case of injury makes sense. But if your outbid thats shit your luck shouldve bid more. And Dave, i missed reading your article, always enjoyed it! |

too deep?
|
|
|
|
Two sessions make sense for anyone who understands that there are sometimes competing bids and that by definition one bid will lose, but in many circumstances that does not mean that someone necessarily needed to bid more.
The main intention of all rules should be to provide a fair structure that results in the most competitive league possible.
But that's obviously too nuanced for some people. Tsk. |

okay
|

so then why have that system at all? Why not just open free agency, first come first serve

|
uh, cuz of all the reasons that are obvious
|
|
|
|
| if you think simply addressing an injury window and the scenario where one loses on a bid equals questioning the entire free agency system, then you are the one conflating things and causing an issue. i would encourage you to stop discrediting yourself before it's even more embarrassing. |

A little out of hand...
|
|
|
|
| I had no intention of trying to cause a ruckus with the F.A, moving it back to 11 makes perfect sense, but adding another window seems unnecessary, this league has ran fine without it, it’s one of the fun parts of this league, it’s a gamble!! Sunday is the second chance day. Didn’t mean to ruffle feathers, that was Shaun’s job! |

actually, you did mean to cause a ruckus
|
|
|
|
All you did is complain from the get go, without even addressing the points being made. At least own your behavior instead of pretending like you are being reasonable or even nice. "haha"
The fact that you reluctantly, eventually admitted that a later window would have some advantages only reveals how unproductive your earlier behavior and comments were. You don't even try to get along or respect anyone else. Eric and I created this free agent approach in 1997, so clearly I am a fan of it but you couldn't stop conflating and misrepresenting the discussion by implying that I am questioning the entire system.
Maybe everyone else is going to be bullied by you, Brad, but I am not. The reason why you were kicked out of the league is because of your relentless negativity. I'm not going to tolerate it and I'm going to shove it back in your face.
You aren't even in the league anymore, so your opinions don't mean anything. Get used to it. |

IR
|
|
|
|
What if my player gets hurt?: Each team will be given one injured reserve slot. Any player hurt can be put in this slot. He can’t be started by your team or picked up by any other team. In addition, you may pick up another player.
The way I interpret this rule: Brees is eligible to go onto the IR and then I can just pick -up another QB WITHOUT going through the free agency process...If I am correct with this assumption I will pick up Brisset and put Brees on the IR....Punky

IR and free agency.
|
|
|
|
| IR is a one way street. Once on, he is not available until next year. If you do this, you can pick up a player during regular free agency. Just read free ageny. It clearly says this is thr only way. |

2nd free agency and a possible 3rd free agency.
|
|
|
|
| About 4 years ago I put to vote 2 additional free agency sessions. They were voted down. Then people who voted against them complained about not having them. The next year I added the Sunday free agency. The time was supposed to be chosen to get ahead of over seas games. I may have split hairs, here. I always wanted one at 11:30, too. |

Then, what does the statement (in the rules book); 'in addition to?' actually mean?

Huh?
|
|
|
|
| If I put Brees on the IR he is unvailable to me for the rest of the year, I put him on the IR and he plays, I lose him to free agency... how is IR any benefit to the team that drafts any said player? |

IR is for franchise players
|
|
|
|
My understanding is that it's sole intention is to allow a team to keep a seriously injured franchise-potential player for the next season. That is the benefit it provides.
The IR slot is not designed for temporarily shelving a player during part of a season. |
