Papa Deuce Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 We are kicking off year 2 of a keeper league I started. First draft with keepers this season. Anyways....we decided that you can keep players a maximum of 2 times. Essentially 3 seasons of use before a player goes back to the pool. I would be all for that if I was in a new league. But this guy wants to change a rule we have had for 20+ years, it seems, just because he drafts poorly. Actually, I am incorrect..... about 10 years ago we upped the keepers to 4 from 3 keepers, but the "keep the guy as long as you want" rule has always been in play. I can't recall anybody else ever looking to change that rule. Hell, for the longest time, I had really bad drafts, and I didn't complain.

flemingd Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 What do the other 10 owners think? Just because "it's always been so" doesn't mean it must remain so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 What do the other 10 owners think? Just because "it's always been so" doesn't mean it must remain so. I was just coming to say this same thing. In fact, I recently read an article that was something like the 10 worst things to say in business, and the "it's the way we've always done it" line was right there - cited examples were Polaroid/kodak, AOL, etc. So long as this owner is proposing the rule change in the manner outlined by the league rules (if a process is outlined), than his request should be heard, pros/cons cited and a league vote conducted.
