Yes we are well over the 24 hour period, but I don't think anyone intentionally tried to cheat the system. Like I said... losing a draft pick is punishment enough.
OK, I don't really see anything in the rules specific to what I did...it was myself and Mike putting our heads together. I have no problem with allowing the team in cahoots cutting their own player. Although with an FA putting you over the cap, you lose the player and are hit with a cap penalty. Being a rookie, you don't have the penalty. So you are comparing apple to oranges.

Also, your situation was exactly the same as 36 Chambers...he added 3 players to the PS, and you are only allowed 2, so he lost a player. So he mis-managed his team, just like you did.

But you are correct, it was not done intentionally, so losing a rookie is penalty enough for me.

What does the rest of the league think (or at least those who give an opinion..I think Clowns is the only other one who does and hasn't yet here)
