We shut it down as well and roll the FAs into the rookie draft the following year.
is there a story behind this?
We do the same as it makes the draft more viable.
He didn't really go into details but said it was for personal reasons and he just didn't have the time to do it anymore. One league member took over as commish and another took over as treasurer and the old commish mailed him a check for the league fees.
Part of the reason this came up is the guy who took over commish is also in a new dynasty league that I started this year. He thinks it should end after week 16 but I set it up to end after week 17 in the new league. His logic is we have a three round free agent draft right before the season starts and people can pick up players then. I think ending in week 16 gives an advantage to players who are out of the playoffs in picking up free agents. For example, at the end of the year I like to drop my kicker, and sometimes my defense if it's nothing special, for some prospects. Well this year I just happened to be in the toilet bowl championship so if waivers closed after week 16 I wouldnt be able to do that. Personally, I might just drop a kicker and not have one if it's just the toilet bowl and there's someone out there I really want. I know it kind of sounds like I'm doing this for my own personal benefit, but I felt this way before that's why it's set up the way it is. Anyway, I can see an argument for either side, so we'll probably vote on this during the offseason.
