Meeks and Gooden getting no playing time screwed over my late round drafting. I need Dirk and Stats back asap.
More than anything else, injuries screw you in this league. The scoring system means that even a scrub who plays four games a week can clobber a team that has zero minutes from that roster spot. I learned that the hard way last year.
I think most teams are trying to squeak by with one injured player. Two or three just means you plan on losing for the week.
Actually an unintentional side effect of adding the 14th roster spot IS it's easier to carry an injured player without getting blown out every week. I know it doesn't seem like much, but 13/14 is better than 12/13. More than that though...you do the math.
But yeah, we always wish for the DL and it never happens. Seems like a better project for David Silver than slapping players on the wrist for flopping.
ps I'm looking to free up some roster spots to play the waiver wire, so anyone looking to trade... talk to me.
I just survived a bad week with dramatic underperformances, still looking like a top three team. Double or nothing CCF?
