:rofl: You answer your mail dude. That's the main thing!

yes I do and I do trades when I can. one problem with trading draft picks is we only have limited roster spots. I have 5 picks plus there the 3 keepers thats 8 spots I need. I would trade multiple picks to move up in the draft but I suspect most teams are going to be the same as mine.

I would be in favour of a deeper minor roster.

Says the guy with pretty much his entire roster eligible for the minors, haha.

Slack, we had to hold Rob down and pluck a few of his teeth out in order to get him to change the minors rosters from 10 to 15.

Good luck convincing him to increase them further!

For what it's worth, there was 11 trades made in the month prior to the deadline.  With 12 different teams involved in those deals. I think I clear out transactions so fast sometimes that it makes it look like nothing's going on.

Hahaha that is really true. Your just a great commissioner and our transactions are processed so fast that its easy to forget about them! In Backyard and FNHL, I see transactions on the board for days and days. Here its Amazon Prime on steroids  :rofl:

Whats the point in increasing trades at the deadline just to increase them? I feel like we are all competent GMs who can weigh the pros and cons of making a trade and make that decision. I do agree that some GMs could be more active and at least respond to messages but those owners may have already decided they intent to stand pat this year with what they have.
