Reds release Stephen 6-King

a general "integrity" clause added to the charter would seem to solve the issue. this can be a blanket clause to cover a lot of things.. but setup a rule/penalty for those who tank. as has been stated, its easy to tell if someone is tanking it vs. rebuilding. trading away talent is fine. b...

Just to be clear, I am not necessarily in favor of changing the extra 10 man spot, but I certainly think it could use a thread(as there is already one going.. meh) - I can see both sides of the coin, and certainly remember how/what/when/where/why this rule was implemented. It was originally to mirro...

Gabe, you can't get a vote yet. We're giving you your chance to discuss, so discuss. I don't know where you and Nate were when it was decided to form the ExCo, I was under the impression that we had no need to involve the whole league in discussions and votes, in fact wasn't that the point. Everybo...

haha.. actually that was my bad.. I had a misstep while composing the original post.. had copied some of the original text earlier in my composition.. started composing a 2nd reply since I fucked up the first.. pasted what I had copied.. continued from there.. posted before I had to run an errand wi...

I really don't think locking the first round is going to do anything. If guys aren't trading their picks before the draft, they'll trade the players they take afterwards (maybe not the best example but JB just traded for Chamberlain). Stopping trading of the pick is not going to stop the players th...

We discussed and debated scenarios around several of those suggestions and unfortunately they start getting way too complicated as far as enforcement. I agree that draft pick trading has been largely a mode for the strong to get stronger in the past. largely though this involves new GM's being take...

I'm so freakin glad this was discussed amongst all members of the IBC before a final decision was made by the ExCO :roll: If there was any question about the result of a full league vote on this issue, it would have been put to a full league vote. Pretty much the only thing stopping pick trading be...

Reds release Hainley 0-Statia

No reason to not take aaron's word? Isn't the fact that he's still to this day tryin to rally the southern troups to rise up against the north sketchy enough? It is for me.. shady mfer..

Dont take what I said the wrong way. I meant to say even if the 1 month rule of no Freel was imposed, it would have no consequence because he's already DL'ed for the year.

I'm not aware of it carrying over.

Does it really fuckin matter? Freel is out the year anyway.. a 1 month penalty imposed wouldn't do any damage... so its for that reason, I respectfully ask the league to impose Freel's 1 month penalty on the Cardinal's Roy Oswalt or John Lackey so I can bury Aaron in the standings and win the NL Cen...

I had another twist to throw on this idea.. Now, let me state ahead of time.. I don't know how much work this would be, how difficult it would be, etc. Or if its even possible using this code. But when you go to ibcleague.com the very top window is the "welcome" window, and all it says bel...

Shawn,

Should you have the time, and desire.. how about considering the implementation of a window on the front page that shows the latest approved trades. We show pretty much any other transaction on the front page, why not trades?

I've certainly tried to make some moves since July.. but time constraints has also hampered my efforts. That & most every deal I try to accomplish has had the other party asking for players essential to my chances this year. The few deals that did materialize and were given a lot of consideratio...

to those complaining they don't have time to send in a daily MP.. your argument is simply invalid. the beauty of this system is that often you don't have to send in a new MP everyday. only when u want to. so Z, you could still do it every sunday if your schedule doesn't allow. If a guy is DLd he is ...
