Waiver Wire

Post by Jonathan S. »

I'm for it. But I'm not for waiting around until Thursday; I don't want to wait all week to make roster moves. Even though other leagues and websites customarily have denoted Thursday as an end-date, why do we have to denote Thursday?

Does everyone really want to wait until Thursday? As I said, I like the idea of a waiver wire, but WHY can't it incorporate Tuesday rather than Thursday?

why do we have to have a date? if someone is dropped, we have to wait 3 days from whenever that is....

as for the people that have cleared waivers, they should be fair game.

And waivers are three days, or Thursday?

Explain it to me.

If the player is a free agent, then the player is fair game or no?

fair game....

i think if a player is dropped he has to go through a waiting period before he can be picked up by someone...

Well, when this was initially discussed, I thought the intent of this rule would be to keep those fantasy owners who like to harvest F.A. players on Sundays from doing so while other owners were at the game. How exactly does this system address in that regard?

Looks like a dead issue in League II. Winning in League I. Let's get some clarification on this impending possibility.
