I'm trying to see if we are the only league that has a messed up penalty for waiver wire transactions. In our league we charge $5.00 and then deduct 5 points from the weekly score for each waiver wire transaction. I really hate the 5 point penalty, it really makes it tough to change D or K on a weekly basis. I also have a problem with trying to make my bench better if it's going to cost 5 points. I've been trying to change the rule for 5 years, but only a few other owners want to make the change. They like it because it keeps the FA pool pretty deep (some of them are lazy and don't want to mine the waiver wire unless they need immediate help). What kind of penalies does your leage enforce for picking up a player? Thanks for the feedback!
