Dave and Buzz I was just throwing out a feeler and I am glad you both responded. I dont know who added who for players nor do I really care. If you need to add players for injuries fine, but the point I want to make is that we roster 14 players and Im sure that we wouldnt be able to add players, especially to a team that had not suffered a loss nor would I ask to. We have had two injuries this season, one of our starters is lost for the rest of the season and another has played injured throughout the season. Another player on our roster hopefully can fulfill his six game minimum requirement ,as was stated in an email sent to all of us following the second game of the season, from andy bohannon (Im sure any post week 4 additions will not meet this requirement.). This player also has had work responsibilities that have kept him from participating each week. Im sure other leagues and teams share this issue and I just want to make sure we all play on an even playing feild. Once the door is opened for one player or team the door is opened to all teams and players reguardless of any situations that created the need to add players. We need to allow every player on every roster to play reguardless of game status to nip any pissing and moaning in the butt before it starts. Andy told me he didn't want this to become like the Mens softball league where rules are made and interpreted as we go. Oh by the way how are forfeits handled ? as I understand the the games played rule, you must participate in the game not just attend it . Players on Janos and Timken needed to have this game to possibly meet the 6 game requirement. I hope no new rule is added to allow this as a game played .
