Chester,
I would like to drop Dennis Northcutt and pick up AJ Feeley (PHI/QB), the site will not let me do it.
Thanks,
Jerry

Probably because there was a game Thursday, and no moves are allowed after the 1st game has started...
From our bylaws (bolded part, 5.2):
QUOTE
5. ACQUISITIONS
5.1. The waiver wire signing period begins after the first week of NFL games are played. The deadline for the first round of weekly acquisition requests is Wednesday at 11:59 P.M. The waiver wires will be awarded based on reverse playoff order.
5.2. The free agent signing period is opened (6:01 A.M. Thursday) after the waiver wire period ends and players may be signed on a first come first serve basis up to 5 minutes before kickoff of that player’s game.
5.3. Any player dropped will not be available for pick-up until after the following weeks games.
5.4. There are no transaction fees for waiver wire/free agent pick-ups.
5.5. Player acquisitions may continue through week 13. No acquisitions once the regular season ends.
5.6. A player must be dropped for every player added (meaning a fixed roster of 16 players at all times).
5.7 If a drafted player is injured before week one and out a minimum of 8 games, the team owner may choose to drop that player and select another player.

Also, I see that waivers are scheduled to run for Week 14 on the league calendar and they should not be.
I guess that according to the way the rules are written, you can have him.
I hope you didn't want to start him.
I generally am not near the computer very much on the weekend other than to change my lineup, so if anybody has pressing needs, call me or be specefic (like Gunther) on the message board for changes.
I definitely think that adding somebody after the week has started is not in the spirit of the rules and we need to clarify it for next year because I think it's ludicrius that you can add/drop after the weeks games have started.

I've got it toggled for 'no waiver moves after kickoff of week 13'.
Where do you see differently?
Either way, if somebody does something, I'll just reverse it.
Though, anybody can still pick up players from tonites game.

Thank you Commish. I did not want to start him since I already started a QB (Brett "non-positive" Favre) Thursday night.
Obviously, we can discuss add/drops next season. I do feel that if there is a Thursday game, we should be allowed to do add/drops until the start of Sunday's games as long as it does not impact players that have already started. But that is for next year.

We'll discuss it in the padding season.

I guess it's not 'toggled' correctly.
Sorry, tonorator, I'll have to reverse your pickups.

yup.
We could vote to change it for next year, but it's in the rules right now.
