I just remember some a-hole last year in the playoffs making FA acquisitions on players that weren't keepable, while having no competing interest in the playoffs.

this league is the only league that encourages and gives people rewards for losing.

in all sports there is a window where the competing teams are allowed to continue making roster decisions, and the eliminated teams are not. There are FA signing periods.

this happens in the NBA, the NFL, and MLB.

I don't know why you guys are in favor of this.

Can't really dictate who sees value in certain players, but for the most part, people stay away from that kind of action in the playoffs.

As for the other rules, I think we just need to decide

1. Use ESPN's IR spot or not?

2. Put a cap on games played per week?

3. Draft date and type

6 add/drops was implemented to reduce streaming and I don't think it needs to be tweaked. I think the cap on games is dumb too, but if the majority wants that then whatever.

Adding a bunch of new rules to league that runs pretty well seems dumb.

I added players. My team was weak and I was exploring all my options.

Funny that this is a big deal yet everyone wants to do away with the idea of streaming.

God forbid someone add a player that you want to stream
