if your player gets injured, dump him... ir him or trade him.
the keeper league is about not knowing what will happen long term, and attempting to plan for it anyway. The reason for doign the draft early in the keeper is i want to see a lot of trades early, trades will only be valid fromt he day yahoo openes until the final match up so the only off season trades allowed are between opening day of fantasy hockey and opening day of the season.
those trades will be important in the keeper, especialy next year when teams will have 6-10 open spots to fill.
Just realized how busy with net games im goign to be this december/january:
Fantasy Football (2 leagues)
Fantasy Hockey (2 leagues, if nto more)
closing out XOC Dead Pool 2005
Opening public(friands and family), Cash prize, XXX Dead Pool 2006
I agree with your thinking here. I'd like to see the non-keeper league have an early draft as well to foster some trades. I like to think in a non-keeper, you have to be able to think and react when someone gets hurt, and make a decision, you can hold him on IR or take a chance and drop him.
Anyway, if those interested in the non-keeper have other ideas, let me know. Far as I'm concerned, majority rules.
