So reducing everyone's roster size will allieviate that? Whatever. I'm sure we would all release our best players, or maybe you will since you want what is best for everyone else. Maybe some of the owners should draft, or manage, or wheel and deal to become better teams. Ever think of that? Releasing the worst two players on my team will not help anyone.

i partially agree with you in fact that owners should manage their teams better, but by allowing the more knowledgable owners to "stash" away a couple extra potential players doesn't help the less awareds' cause...
i am fine with it at 25, but would definitely insist on the use of a waiver wire!

I think doing away with IR and maybe one less player wouldnt be so bad, while it is true that top players are not going to be out there it would still put anywhere from 18 to 24 extra players out there.
The best teams will probably always be the best teams not matter how you shape the rules, but it is difficult for a newer owner to go against an established owner because the teams that are taken over usually are not that good.
The biggest thing in my opinion that should be changed is the tournment or toilet bowl stuff.
The Punishers have been the fifth worst team for about two years in a row ( I think) and they have had to pick eighth because they couldnt beat teams in the year end tournament.
This tournamont favors the owner(s) who underacheives outside of the playoffs.
