Greg and Tom are the only ones who should be making these decisions.

A committee would be a good idea moving forward to discuss ways to make this process better next year. I agree 100%

What I mean is Greg and Tom would pick guys who they felt had the NFFC in their best interest (not themselves).

My feeling on having more people involved is like what I tell kids in school about grades. When kids complain about too many things being graded, I tell them it is because it is a better indicator of what kind of student they are.

The more data (years, people, etc.) you can take on something the more accurate it will be.

This truly was VERY good in allowing/not allowing trades go through in my other league.

Again, I don't have a problem with Greg or Tom solely doing this either, but it is quite obvious that some do, and I was just bringing up a suggestion.

It's a good idea. Greg and Tom can act as the Executive branch, the Council of 13 would be the Legislative branch...and SNAKE could be the Judicial branch.
...as King of IQ has brilliantly suggested here, SNAKE would like to officially throw his name in the ring here for Head of the Judicial Committee...hmmm, will it be the guillotine or the noose?...SNAKE

Actually this is already in place on the MB.

This week as an example:

Greg or Tom posted the McNabb thing saying they would make a decision in a day or two.

We all had the chance to air our thoughts for consideration but no one did.

They then ruled.

If the mob had addressed this issue prior to the ruling, then maybe McNabb might have been pulled.

Absent any comments from the peanut gallery, they made their decision.

Next!
