I would suggest loss of draft pick as a penalty that is more incentive to remain active.
Also, while it creates more work for me, I would also suggest the Commish has authority to adjust said teams lineup, if not submitted for the week by Saturday, 6pm EST, using MFL's projected points as a guide...simply set lineup based on highest projected points. The owner can still adjust before game time this way, and also allows for valid lineup.
Thoughts?

I don't mind either suggestion, and like that the Commish can try to adjust the lineup for competitive balance, however, if the Commish adjusts a lineup penalties should apply for each infraction IMO. Draft picks should start with a 4th for 1st infraction, a 3rd for 2nd infraction, a 2nd for 3rd infraction, and a 1st for a 4th infraction (or something along those lines). The only negative to draft pick penalties is if a owner drops out before the next season, don't think we'd want to handicap a new owner for a previous owner's lack of participation.
This would be good for Frenzy to adopt as well.
