I liked the idea bjl had about injuries part year. That you can only use the slot to stash a player who is out for the year. Or once you put them in an injury slot, you can play them again in your lineup. Forget the exact way he had it

my idea was that if you used the injury slot on a player, he was pencilled in as one of your keepers the next year.
i think just having normal injury slots completely changes the complexion of this league. and there are so many decision that would've been made differently, with big name players going down. i don't think the change/ability should come without a price.

can you list any negatives to an IR slot as specified by ESPNs rules?
I agree it changes how decisions would have been made in the past, but it's not right to think that way with trying to improve this league going forward.

it comes with a price, as you still compete without a valuable player.
With the amount of streaming that occurs in TDBBL, i also like the idea an IR taking away possibly 12 more guys out of the FA pool.

i don't know if it's a negative, but i do like the times when people have to trade/drop a player to try and stay competitive when the player is out for 2 weeks or a month. i think it encourages movement of players and trading.
i think the biggest thing is this league is one of my fave leagues. and there's really not a whole lot of problem with it. and short term injuries aren't that big a problem. you roll with it.
i think the real problem is catastrophe insurance IR spot. if your best player gets hurt, i don't think you should be forced to choose between giving him up or just giving up on the season. it's a keeper league.

are we going to have a cap on games played this year?
Posted on 9/24/12 at 1:23 pm to TigerPhan27
Good call. We need to vote on that. 48 - 50 games seems like a good number for a regular 82 game. NBA season.
Posted on 9/24/12 at 1:25 pm to Toula
There's no IR in the Nba. I think that is the biggest thing
We've had lineup problems is baseball and they actually designate DL time. I can only imagine done of the problems that could happen here.

I approve of this.
Posted on 9/24/12 at 1:32 pm to Lester Earl
that's kind of why i think it's a good deal to adopt my strategy. IR but with a price. You'll really need to make sure you want to use it carefully.

port you on gchat?

Most guys are ruled OUT and they do file official injury reports.
there won't be problems, b/c ESPN isn't a retarded site like CBS and doesn't allow you to have an illegal roster. If you have a guy on IR and he comes off, you will not be able to make any move whatsoever until you take him off. But will not be penalized in the process.

I proposed something last year in which if you had an injured player you could designate him as injured and put him on the IR and pick up a replacement. But if you put someone on your IR you can't use them for X amount of games even if they come back and play. And if they do come back and play the replacement player you picked up is not eligible to be used anymore and must be dropped

That is still not a disabled list.

Im more talking about someone having a player on IR when he is playing in games.
because there is no set designation on games you have to miss, like a DL, i have a hard time believing that this is fully accurate.
There is a potential advantage there... It may not be a big deal in the regular season, but when the playoffs come and every little game matters, it could be a problem.

There is no DL or IR in the NBA so we shouldn't have one...if you have a big name player that's hurt you can trade him to a non-contender for like value or just hold on to him.

i'm still unsatisfied with this. there are too many advantages given that do not compel teams in this league to compete towards the end, instead of playing for next season.
i still like my catastrophe ir spot. but i think i've said my piece, i'll be happy to vote on whichever issue y'all wanna.
i'm against traditional IR spot.
For my resolution that you can put a guy on IR, but you have to keep him the next year.
