Whose roster is locked tomorrow? (1 Viewer)

I still cannot understand why some joker commish would arrange the settings this way. First week of playoffs and I'm scramblin'. Just found out about Slaton today....don't what what the satus is on Turner and probably won't know untilFriday or Staurday when it's too late. Anyone else dealing with this crap?

 
Nope, went through the settings of the league I joined with a fine tooth comb before joining.

Yes, it would suck to have rosters locked on Thursday [esp now with the playoffs]

 
With as many Thursday night games as there are now (and for a long while now), it makes absolutely no sense at all to be locking roosters Thursday.

 
I would think rosters shouldn't be locket at 12:59 PM Sunday either.

What with 4pm game time decisions let alone Monday Night Football.

 
wouldn't play in that league... no point in it
Yeah, nothing like having someone win a championship with a guy that wasn't on his rooster between weeks 1-14.
Did you play with the same players all year? I seriously doubt it. In one of my leagues, rosters are locked after Week 12. Regardless of the precautions you take prior to the rosters being locked, i.e. rostering 2+ QB's, TE's, PK's, whatever, there is still the potential for injuries, releases or benchings (see Hauschka, Carney, Elam, Suisham, Slaton, Ryan, Delhomme, Schaub, Stafford, Brady, and any number of other players that had to leave games last week) to leave you without a starter. So what's worse, having to play with an empty starting roster position in the playoffs due to something out of your control or having to plug in a player that wasn't on your roster prior to the playoffs. You don't play with the same players all year anyway. We are constantly picking up and releasing players during the season. To me it is ludicrous to all of a sudden leave it all up to luck, regarding health, after manipulating players on and off your roster all year.

wait... rosters or lineup?

I've played in leagues where there are no waivers past this week but we changed that silly rule.

I've also played in leagues where your lineup is locked after kickoff of the first game, hate it and won't do it again.

But... read the rules bro. No complaints afterwards for rules that are clearly written.
