A guy in another high stakes league picked Steve Smith (NYG) in round 2 and it wasn't reversed.

In reading more, I see both sides, but I still am assuming it was a computer error.

All I know is if Dunn wins LV2, and god forbid the 100K something will HAVE TO be addresed in nexr year's rules.

While some suggestions are logical (4 game suspension, off team and out of free agent pool), you can't just implement this in a high stakes contest 'on the fly'. I'm assuming it WAS a computer error.

No way. Never happen. Human error and lets move on.

[/QUOTE]Agree thats why I posted about, I really meant to start S.Smith. If it's not a human error, which I know it is. Than we have problems folks. Hope it's a human error. If Stats messed this up, it's time to move away from Stats.
But I will say it one more time. Human error! :rolleyes:

Agreed. Once this decision is made, it should be more definitive on how it will be handled.

I honestly think it's a human error. Not computer error. I've never had a mistake before, and I always check the pickups before I leave the waiver wire page to make sure it is what it is...

My opinion is to give him the player back. Not because we're being lenient, but because we have to keep the integrity of the game. That asterisk in that league, if Steve Smith were frozen, is going to pi$$ off a LOT of people when prizes are given out, and people notice the standings, and if THIS DECISION affected their wallet.

I think the rules a pretty clear. Is Steve Smith a Star player? Was he dropped for a valid reason? Has Greg made a final ruling?


All drops are also subject to review by the commissioner of the NFFC and can be revoked if the dropped player is deemed too valuable to be offered to that league's free agent pool, thus damaging the credibility of the overall contest. In the case of a "star" player being dropped in a league for a valid reason, the NFFC commissioner does reserve the right to allow the cut but keep the player out of that league's free agent listing for any length of time, possibly the entire season. All decisions by the NFFC commissioner will be final.

How have any of you been negatively impacted by this turn of events? Are you already setting up your line of excuses?

My sleep was negatively impacted since I was on the forums late last night playing with Mystery the Cat.

There's no way Smith should be allowed back on Rich's team, regardless of the reason. Sure mistakes happen, but we have to live with them, not have them corrected for us.

I think he should get S Smith back on his roster but not allowed to start him this week as a slap on the wrist just like Bill Bellichik got!
