I've had my roster figured out for a long time now...it's got nothing to do with those issues. To me, those are stupid and petty things that are easily fixed,...
I am agreeable to a team cap but not a system whereby you are forcing owners to commit to a lengthy contract. Say if Barry Bond or Randy Johnson becomes a free...
It was just my proposal...it HAS to be longer than 2 years though. Without that in place, you get what we have now...chaos where guys are going for absolutely...
I am prettty dumb as far as computer technology is concerned. I would prefer you sending me a sample file. Don't need to show the whole team of players. Just 2...
Instead of that, what about a team cap? or even better, a luxury tax like what MLB has in place. That would be interesting. The Yankees have to spread their...
I think a luxury tax is ridiculous, no offence. Everyone has more than enough money to make the FA bidding ridiculous. We need a salary cap - an individual...
... I second that...A luxury tax? Come on...when you don't actually PAY the tax, it doesn't have any effect. Think about it. Rob's right - if there's a hard...

If you really thing Bonds and Johnson are worth having, then you have to evaluate how much you are willing to spend on them. Since the concept is a keeper...
I already posted this as well. If I had a cap for the maximum a players contract could be (say it was $30), what would prevent me from nominating Pierre for...

... ** not necessarily true, as Rob pointed out - if you think he's worth $30 - then bid $30 .... or put another clause in that the team to nominate a player,...
... it ... and ... team ... offer ... (sorry - I thought Rob had pointed out something similar - strike the "as Rob pointed out" part - my reply stays the...
I don't like the max contract thing...a team cap is what it's all about. If you have that, and an owner wants to pay $30 for a so-so player, then so be...
You're "NAIVE". Note the spelling...LOL. Your comment about "Rob pointed out" was a good one...so I'll take the credit. I agree with that idea about the...
I heard comment ranging from "ridiculous" to "it's a joke" to "if you don't pay.. bla bla bla". Basically no soild reason to reject this. What is wrong with...
All the luxury tax would do is spread the money to other teams, and they can pay the ridiculous salaries to players in Free Agent Bidding. It solves nothing. ...
So what is the advantage of being successful last year and hence with large revenue to spend this year? We may as well abolish the revenue system!!! Sonny ... ...
Come on... this is all relative. if you have $1,920 to spend, $50 is nothing. It is only when you are given $192 that spending $50 has a meaning. So by getting...
I don't know which database is supposed to be accurate, but in the searchable one, where you have the bidding listed, my roster does not include Marte, the...
I decided to bid on a player and now I need a password? If I had a dollar for every time I posted the word "simplify" in this league I'd take you all out to...
You ever heard of free market economy? Where have you been the last 50 years? If I want Pierre for $50 it is my choice... Sonny for Braves ... not ... Lets ......
Too bad buster. I have posted a thousand times what the passwords are, and if you can't figure it out, you won't get Michaels. I'm tired of non-active members...
I don't think it matters, if they are on your roster, do they? The unprotected (28 man roster) will be determined after the season, right? rob ... From:...
