    So did team BFT.

    Narrowly escaped this week as I couldnt remove Beanie from the starting lineup in time for another player who actually didnt have a hammy issue.

    Get these ****ing scrubs out of the league dude. Dropping Jamal Charles and Kenny Britt? Completely ****ing up the balance of the league. I vote either the morons who dropped them be kicked out of the league or they be removed from the teams that picked them up. This is just ridiculous.

    Charles and Britt alone won't affect the league balance, though they definitely help the teams who picked them up and harmed the teams who cut them.

    This becomes a problem only if people strategically cut players to intentionally harm or help other teams. And I will revert those cuts and adds if I suspect foul play. But Britt and Charles are legit cuts and legit claims. If people didn't want to use the IR slots, they didn't want to use the IR slots.

    Can people stop dropping great players just because they are injured. People do realize there are no redrafts.

    I'm setting a record for most QBs carried. They're all available for trade, too.

    Too bad you didn't get Palmer. I tried to grab him but once 2k5 picked him up I had to take Cassel. I held onto McNabb too long and he was losing value fast. Once I get Andre Johnson back I'm poised to take the division. I really like my team for this year and the forseeable future.

    I put in a waiver claim for Palmer but didn't have high enough priority. I needed DeMarco Murray badly and had to burn waiver position on him. But I did manage to pick up Palmer in GISH's league, where I also have an abundance of QBs who no one will accept trades for. :lol:

    I thought about putting in a claim for him...

    But the next mofo that drops someone on that was placed on IR that they shouldn't have... I will be getting!

    I think the league has generally gotten its act together with IR use. Of course, a superstar hasn't been injured in a while…

    Also, if someone does drop a superstar on IR, I'm going to put them back on the person's roster in an IR slot, so don't get your hopes up. :lol:

    I agree. If you're going to start giving "superstars" backs to people who released them and didn't place them on IR... you may as well give back Charles and Britt.

    Or start doing so next year... I don't agree with making a midseason rule.

    I agree, don't make a midseason rule. People should know by now I would think. If you take Charles away from me I will be very sad. Do you want that on your conscience?

    I think there's some misinterpretation going on here. Refer to post #131, as my post #139 is just a reiteration.

    I'm not reverting the Charles/Britt claims. Those were legitimate cuts and legitimate claims. What I WILL do in the future is revert superstar cuts, especially after all this discussion about a. how it's a problem and b. the existence of two IR slots you can drag-and-drop IR'd players to. If you have no idea how that works, just look at my roster (Polk High Panthers). I have LeShoure and Amendola on IR. When Yahoo! designates a player as being IR (red IR text by the person's name), you can click and drag as if you were going to move the person to or from your starting lineup, and an IR slot will appear at the bottom of your bench.

    It's not a midseason rule change, because there's no rule against cutting players. I set up the league without using Yahoo!'s Can't Cut List to give owners max flexibility. I can only imagine what the response would have been if someone cut Randy Moss when the Patriots traded him to the Vikings. Look how that turned out.

    Edit: If cutting Charles and Britt still rubs people raw, and if there some other "oh crap I didn't use IR" incident or some other imbalance that affects the league, then at the end of the year I'll hold a vote on whether or not to reset rosters and re-draft teams for 2012. Big if, though.

    Thanks for all the work you've done on the league. Even though I'm a middle of the pack owner right now, I'm havign a great time. I for one would vote against resetting rosters.

    No reset, I've worked hard to keep guys intact, and have made many decisions on free agency/trades based on keeping my core roster. (except for that jamal charles guy) lmao

    I would vote no reset.

    There is no way of knowing if Charles or Britt will come back and be the player they were or even have the same role as they did.
