wjag Posted December 20, 2015 Report Posted December 20, 2015 This place is quiet. So a bit of a two-prong rant. IR stashing. I can't count the times this season I have seen a player sit on IR multiple days to a week after he is no longer listed as such. It is disingenuous and poor sportsmanship to leave a player more than one day on IR after he is cleared to played, I give the one day allowance as it might be that you miss the day for whatever reason. Yahoo poorly handles the re-integration of said IR player. The way the system should work is you drop a player from the active roster (which it does do) and then immediately move the IR player into that slot (which it doesn't do). You have to wait 24 hours to actually complete that move. If you try it before 24 hours, it gives you a roster over limit warning, which is wrong and dumb. Quote

I haven't this year, but I used the IR stash to great advantage last year. Might feel slimy, but it's in the rules. Quote
wjag Posted December 21, 2015 Report Posted December 21, 2015 Just noticed that Yahoo is waiving the minimum 2 goalie starts for this week due to the paucity of games for some NHL teams Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted December 26, 2015 Report Posted December 26, 2015 Letang is coming back tonight so I drop Soderberg in order to make a spot. The transaction won't go through until tomorrow? How am I supposed to activate somebody off of IR when I don't find out until that day that he's going to play? This is why people keep players on IR even when they're healthy. It's not just to keep them but when they find out they can't activate them on a game day it just doesn't make any sense to drop somebody who's playing that night knowing their IR player won't be active until the next day when they won't be playing. It makes more sense to just hold on to an IR player until somebody else gets hurt. I don't think people are abusing the system, I think people are working around what doesn't make sense to begin with. So not only am I stuck with Soderberg who doesn't play tonight, I'm stuck with a healthy player still being on IR. Quote

JJFIVEOH Posted December 26, 2015 Report Posted December 26, 2015 That's exactly what I was complaining about upthread. Sorry, I read it as you were upset that the fantasy players themselves were taking advantage of the system by purposely holding on to good players. My bad, so we're on the same page. Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted January 5, 2016 Report Posted January 5, 2016 Derrico, I hope you're not too sore today. :D Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted January 21, 2016 Report Posted January 21, 2016 It's really aggravating when I can't activate somebody off of IR because the person I want to drop won't get dropped until tomorrow. Quote
Derrico Posted January 22, 2016 Report Posted January 22, 2016 Derrico, I hope you're not too sore today. :D Totally missed this post. Well played good sir! Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Isn't it a little bit early for people to stop keeping up on their teams? Why do people even play if they have no intentions of finishing? Quote
wjag Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Isn't it a little bit early for people to stop keeping up on their teams? Why do people even play if they have no intentions of finishing? It happens every season. Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted March 10, 2016 Report Posted March 10, 2016 Hard to believe playoffs start next week. Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 Good luck in the playoffs! I'll be in the stands watching this week. Just call me El Presidente. Quote
darksabre Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 Good luck everyone! Just missed out this year. Between Lehner getting hurt day one and a bunch of guys underperforming this just wasn't my year. Quote
dudacek Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 JJ had a very nice run. Pretty convincing regular season victory. Let's hope the playoffs are another story. :nana: Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 You got that right. Playoffs are a whole new ball game. I'm thinking I should sit my players so they're healthy for next week. Quote
deluca67 Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 Great year everyone. After losing in both Finals last year, maybe this is the year I break through. It's going to be a battle, a lot of well built teams stand in the way. Good Luck to all the playoff teams. Quote
deluca67 Posted March 21, 2016 Report Posted March 21, 2016 Going for the repeat!! Going head to head in Blue. Hoping the mild regular season success I had carry's into the playoffs. Good Luck. Quote
