Division Names and Schedule have been set.  I have not figured them out yet. Ask your League Champion...... B-) I have chosen a 13 Week regular season - Play all 3 teams in your division three times and 4 teams outside your division once.

how about not limiting our waivers during the week and if you pick up and drop the same player in the same week theres no week waiting period

Don't have a problem with Waiver Limits - Everyone currently gets two per week.

The reason for the waiting period is to provide everyone in the league a chance to see who has been dropped.  This is a very standard Fantasy Football set-up. 

An addition or alternate option, would be to enable the "Free Agent" feature.  The player would still be locked until Tuesday, but anyone interested in that player could submit a free agent request (Different than "Weekly Waivers" or "FCFS".)  The player would be awarded Tuesday morning based on whatever criteria was set-up.

Another option would be to shorten the Lock Period to something like Two days.  That would provide the league a chance to view any dropped players and know when they would become available.  Any player dropped before Noon on Friday could be picked up and played that week.

Definately some options here...Need some more input from other Owners please.

you missed my point if you pick up a player on thursday morning and drop him on thursday night or anytime the same week he would be available immediatly get what i mean? i agree with the week waiting period ... but it would prevent someone from picking up players and dropping them just to prevent someone else from getting them for a week that could happen if we had unlimited waivers (which we should have)

I understand, I just wasn't aware it was a problem.  The only real fix is by changing the number of days a player is "Locked".  Currently it is Tuesday 1 AM.  If it was changed to x number of days (i.e. 2 days) that would allow the player to be picked up again the same week in most cases.  It could be 1 day or 4 days.  We are not able to differentiate between players that were just picked up and dropped vs players that were just dropped via a normal waiver. 

Once again I have no objection to unlimited waivers, but I know at the time we originally voted, it was tough just to get agreement on two a week.

I will put it up for a poll, but only if we get some addtional feedback from Owners on this topic. Otherwise we can address it for next year. 

If anyone has comments for or against - please post them. 
Thanks

I'm all for more waivers. This week for example I made a strange pick somehow. Correcting it was 1 of my waiver choices. I had 2 more pickes I wanted to do, but I was denied. The NFL has unlimited waivers, we could as well.

No it hasn't ever been a problem but i just think it would be a good handcuff rule for unlimited waivers ... then it would prevent it from ever becoming a problem

this waiver system isn't a good one besides having a 2 waiver a week limit I can't make a waiver move after a thursday game either????

Was the player on a team that played Thursday?  Otherwise you should have been able to.  Players are supposed to be available up to game time of their game.  If they played Thursday, you need to wait until the following week.  That is the way it is set-up right now....
