Looking For Feedback On NFBC 2009
Originally posted by SlackerDan: I might be in the minority (or even the only one interested in this) ... but I would love to have the DH changed to FLEX.

Originally posted by Navel Lint: First, I didn’t write the poll, I’m just referencing it. Second, the topic of the DL rule had been talked about for days thru several threads before Greg posted the survey.

Given that, how can a twice a week change league possibly have more strategy than a weekly change league?

no, the Sept rule isn't in effect. it was HORRIBLE. it turned every participant into an attorney looking for just one snipet of info saying the guy is out for the year.
