Re: Wednesday/Friday Waivers

The NFFC had a record-breaking season in 2012 and we currently have over 4,000 teams competing, including over 3,200 teams using FAAB each week. The entire HSFF space grew this year and just between the two major contests there are likely over 9,000 teams setting FAAB each week. That's a lot of work for you folks early in the week and something we understand.
Last year we did survey our customers and the end result was that a full Wednesday FAAB was the top choice. Going to a Wednesday FAAB that involved only the two Thursday teams with a full FAAB on Friday was the second best option when you look at all of the votes. It's actually something I had asked our IT department to be ready for last year and we were ready to work on it if that had received the most votes. We did talk about this yesterday in a meeting and technically this is something we absolutely could do if it was a direction we chose to go.
We'll definitely get through much of the regular season before sending out a survey of possible rules changes to all NFFC owners and getting their opinions while the season is still fresh in their minds. This one change is something we'll consider depending on the feedback and the votes. Everyone will have a say in this and a few other items on the survey. Again, I'm glad the discussion is on all of us doing what is best to improve the game, as all discussions should be. A change might make it better or staying as is may be the best option. We'll ask you and act quickly after receiving your input. Thanks all.
