Commissioner and Fantasy Team Etiquette
Posted on 12/12/13 at 2:03 pm

I play in a yahoo league and the way it's set up is the top 4 teams make the playoffs.
Well one of the non-playoff teams dumps his entire roster onto the waivers. Anquan Boldin, Alshon Jeffrey, Torrey Smith, Reggie Bush, Eric Decker, AJ Green, Seattle Defense, to name the prominent players. Don't ask me how this guy didn't make the playoffs.
Should the commissioner block these players? I say they should because it doesn't work that way in real football.
It's the reason why the league makes a deadline for trading players for a reason.
Anyway the commissioner says he can't block it. (Is that bullshite?) Especially since he picked up Boldin and Torrey Smith.
I was last on the waivers so I didn't get shite.

Out of all those players...he picked up Boldin and Smith?....
But yes, that definitely should not be allowed.

Yes the commish should block it, no question. I don't know about Yahoo (why does anyone use that service?), but commish has the authority to assign players to certain teams in ESPN. Commish should be able to assign the players to the team and assign the team ownership to another player (himself).

Yes/ There are a few different ways he could not allow the players to be added.

It was only because of waiver priorities I'm sure.

Well I'm not going to lose my mind over it because there is no money involved but he's being a defensive prick about it though.

I know that the commissioner could have re-added the players to the owner's roster and locked that team from making further add or drops.
It stinks and I would be quite upset with his actions.

#1: that Team Manager should be banned next year
#2: Your commish is full of shite. I am the commish of a Yahoo league and if that would have happened, I would have put all of those players back on the team they came from and then locked that team for editing.
#3: Anyone who thinks it's OK to compete in the playoffs with players that were dumped from an eliminated team is a bad sport. It is close to cheating, IMO. You have to compete in the playoffs with the team you assembled that got you there. Not a bunch of ringers you pick up at the last minute. Your commish is a douchebag.

You should send this thread to your commish so he knows what an a-hole he's being.
It's a weak FF manager who resorts to using plundered players in the playoffs.

Yes. Just delete the owner and take over control.

Just don't pay any attention to this league then.
