As an owner my obligation is to manage my team as best I can within the league rules. I am not required to manage my team to the benefit of others.
If gaining a potential league winning player costs the risk of being short handed one week, mind, you I don’t have the player without meeting the conditions anyway, then I’ll do the deal for me. If sitting a player I have current doubts about seals the deal that is a no brainer for my team to win down the road.
And after last week, I may not start MT this week even if it is “obvious” to do so. My motives are mine and not the leagues.
Im not playing for other players. If you need points for a tie breaker that’s on you. I’m under no obligation to do what YOU feel I need to do to help you get into the playoffs.
