I'm having trouble with the bolded portion of this rule and think it's a bit outdated for our league now. I believe this was written and intended for when we used email for waivers initially in this league, not for MFL. Now with the commish lockout being turned on there is no way a commish can gain any advantage by submitting waivers on the same deadline as the rest of the league. And trutfully, submitting waivers by Tuesday night is a pretty tough to do at times. Basically you get 1 day to determine if you need to pick someone up, a day when the NFL is typically off and not much news breaks.
I'd like to say that going forward commissioners can submit bids by the normal deadline. To keep balance in the league, we'll not be unlocking commish abilities unless needed when waivers are processed on Thursdays; or on an as needed basis for promotions.
Does anyone disagree with this?
