Week 8 - Transactions

From the Commissioner . . .

I know many of you are fairly new to the league and are still learning the nuances of the rules. That is perfectly reasonable, as it can get complicated. Processing all of the weekly transactions and checking their accuracy is a lot of work, and sometimes I miss things or make mistakes. I do the best I can to be accurate. That said, if I feel like an owner is intentionally trying to slip a move by me that in my opinion knowingly breaks the rules, as commissioner I will take league action. In this specific case, I think it was just an honest mistake... I know we are all friends, but at times people can get competitive over very small stuff. So, if you have any question in your mind about the rules on a move, please don't hesitate to ask me. And if I am not certain, I will check our league rules and the roto book to make sure.
