kdog55 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 In ESPN leagues, is it even possible for a commissioner to go in and change his lineup after the players have locked for the week? I know on CBSportsline you can, but not sure on ESPN. Basically we have team A accusing team B, our commish, of changing his own lineups after the games are complete thinking no one notices. Commish says this is not even possible because ESPN will only let you go in and do a points "adjustment" if there are any issues to rectify, that even the commish cannot change out players once they are locked. So now Commish is highly ticked about being accused (and rightfully so), but Team A is still adamant he knows the wrongdoings were done. So in a nutshell, I am not familiar enough with ESPN to know if it is even possible to cheat the system this way. Is it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Select the team and then edit the team as LM or as a player. If it's as a player, it will appear as if the player makes the change and follows the same restrictions a non-LM would have (locked rosters for instance). Editing a roster as a LM bypasses the rules and allows you to retroactively change rosters.

Is it?? Check the league activity log. If the LM made the change as the LM, bypassing the locked rosters, I believe it should show up there.
