mobb_deep 918 Posted September 13, 2012 So, a guy in my league dropped Ray Rice. He claims his 3 year old did it and wants me to reverse the transaction. I told him that If he wants to have a 3 year old co-manage his team, he has to live with his managerial decisions. That being said, it wouldn't be fair to let someone just pick him up on waivers. So... I came up with a solution that would be fair for everyone (except the guy who dropped Ray Rice). I decided I'd place Ray Rice on the roster of each team he faced, for the remainder of the regular season. Once the playoff's start, I will lock Ray Rice, so nobody will be able to use him against either other team. He says that's BS, and is all ticked off... but the rest of the league thinks it's a great idea. What do you guys think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grendel 0 Posted September 13, 2012 It's and obvious mistake in fantasy football, keyword being fantasy. Put him back on his team or risk your league folding, as it should Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bruce Benedict 0 Posted September 13, 2012 You put him back, or you let him go through waivers like any other player. This cloning procedure is dumb. Why not just let anybody draft and start as many of whatever player as you want, so you get 12 teams with Foster and Rice and McCoy starting in flex against each other every week?

Serpent 51 Posted September 13, 2012 Haha I think that's a great decision. Tell him you are willing to give him (and only him) a can't cut list. Also put it up to a vote for the rest of the league, I bet 5 people will abstain though. If everyone wants your idea though I would just do that, since that's the entire league against one guy. Otherwise you do have to punish him somehow or it makes it a bit of a joke. Giving him Ray Rice back and then enforcing a can't cut list on him alone would sufficiently punish him probably. Then when somebody gets injured he's stuck with them, and loses waiver claims that he would have had by cutting that player, since he can't manage properly without the list.

mobb_deep 918 Posted September 13, 2012 Is this a joke? Huh? Why would it be a joke? The problem with this country is nobody wants to take responsibility for their own actions. Just ask MaddFutherMucker. I'm sure he will agree with me. Haha I think that's a great decision. Tell him you are willing to give him (and only him) a can't cut list.

That's a pretty good idea. But I'm playing him this week, so I want to atleast get RR for just this one week. I'm sure the league won't mind. They pretty much go with whatever I decide. Like edjr mentioned, I run a pretty tight ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Squintz82 45 Posted September 13, 2012 This is the dumbest idea I've ever heard. Being commissioner doesn't mean you have to be an ###### when people make mistakes. Just put him back on his roster because one day you'll make a mistake and hope a commissioner helps you out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Desk 0 Posted September 13, 2012 Wish I had a schmuck like you running one of my leagues. If I was the guy with Rice I would jack you in the face and call it an "accident". Power trip commissioners are one of the few things that take away the fun of fantasy football. P.S. You must run a shitty league if you allow top 10 draft picks to be dropped.

RicemanX 20 Posted September 13, 2012 dude. give him his player back. If he did it on purpose and wants to get his player back because he realized it was a retarded move...it means you're playing against a retarded person, cut that retard some slack. If his kid did it, save the kid a beating, because I would punt the sh1t out of my kid if he dropped my #1 pick. Do the right thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If his kid did it, save the kid a beating, because I would punt the sh1t out of my kid if he dropped my #1 pick. Do the right thing. But doing the wrong thing feels so good! Like one time, when I was 10 or 11, I stole a bunch of change from my dad and spent it all on pizza and video games for me and my friends. It was one of the best times I remember having as a kid! I'm sure you can agree that free food is your favorite food, right? It's fantasy football. It has nothing to so with this country. Taking responsibility for his actions would be loosing the player, not getting punished above and beyond for it. A tight ship? Sounds to me like your team blows, and you're using this opportunity to steal Ray Rice for a week so you can hopefully squeak out a win. WTF kind of BS league are you running that wouldn't mind the commissioner taking a top 3 player for his own roster for a week? It's time you join a real league instead of rounding up all your teddy bears and tea party dolls on draft day. It's only a 100$ buy-in, with a bunch of friends I've known for the better part of 30 years. It's mostly guys who collect baseball cards and comic books, but we do have a few girls who still collect bears. So if a guy gets drunk, crashes his car and kills his family, losing his family would be enough punishment? He shouldn't have to go to jail, to learn from his actions? you guys aren't being very consistent. I'm starting to think I should have posted this at FBG's. I'd probably get a more balanced response over there. They have much looser posting restrictions and moderation. As a result, the member base is much more conservative and knowledgeable about fantasy football. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

golfreak 0 Posted September 13, 2012 This is retarded. Its an obvious mistake, put the guy back on his roster. Its similar to ESPN not letting you drop player in the top 30(or whatever). One time we were drafting in a bid league and a guy mistakingly click the "all in" button and used all his money on 1 player. Obviously he didn't mean to do it and I didn't want him to start the season with mostly all $1 player so I put the money back but penalized him. I made him pay an extra $50 for what the player was worth. Put Rice back on his team and penalize the guy. Something like no FA pickup for 1 or 2 weeks.

cavern 70 Posted September 13, 2012 honestly, ray rice is such a fantasy giant that such irresponsibility MUST be met with quick and harsh punishment, lest the very integrity of your league be compromised. i would say that every team that plays this fellow should get not only rice but also houston team runningback each week. hth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Desk only has 11 posts which means he's smarter than the rest of us. Mobb has him beat up in hours logged as a fake football commish though, and hours logged on a fake football forum board. Desk seems to fall for Mobb's baiting though so maybe Desk doesn't have a ton of common sense. Mobb wins the Keep it in the closet award though. This is really close and I don't know who to root for.
