Aaron - I think the concept of everyone who gets to the playoffs getting money back is good but if you're giving more and more to the Superbowl winner and less and less to the wildcard winners what's the point in getting to the wildcard spot. If my team as a wildcard winner is only getting back $33 (or whatever amount we agree on) and I already paid $50 plus whatever I paid out in free agencies, I'm really not getting anything back and believe me, I worked as hard as Jason or Derek to get to the playoffs. And I agree, we all worked our butts off to get where we are today and should the other playoff teams get compensated, yes, I think so, but where do you draw the line as to how much everyone gets back! Should you keep taking from us losers who finally get somewhere? I don't think so. And I really don't think getting $650 back as the superbowl winner is pultry especially if I only paid out $60something to get there! I think I'd be way ahead of the game! I'm not trying to be difficult, I guess I just don't understand. I know knowing that I can get at least part of my entrance fee back by winning 4th place is a big plus for me, starting taking that away and I'm not so sure how much fun this league will be! - Dana

Good enough, we're just seeing it from different viewpoints. By the way, my last post wasn't directed towards you guys, I just posted it wrong. I can see where you're coming from, too. And my post was meant to inspire ideas and opinions like yours. I see things my way while having no idea what other people are thinking, so it's good to see what you guys think. Unlike you and me and a few others, most owners don't speak their mind. And they won't question a rule even if they have an opinion on it. Anyway...

Personally I'd rather have a t-shirt or a pin or a bobble head or something stupid like that rather than the money. So you can see I'm coming from an odd place. I was just fishing for what other people thought. Hopefully (though doubtful) more people will respond.
