Rafiki is (understandably) upset that Hanster is currently starting Rob Gronkowksi in one of these meaningless games. If Hanster was in contention, he would be forced to drop Gronk (or another player) to pick up a TE. Since Hanster does not have a healthy TE on his roster, it is the equivalent of dropping a K/D/TE to stash a guy since he has nothing to play for.
Moreover, the bottom 6 already have their draft picks set. However, the playoff teams obtain their draft order by their playoff finishes. So not only is Hanster improperly "stashing", he is actually benefited (higher draft pick) from doing so. Rafiki (again understandably) thinks this should be disallowed. If it is not, he thinks he should have the right to do the same thing.
And the commish obviously cannot lock team rosters. If a guy has a career ending injury or a young player breaks out this Sunday, teams not in contention must be provided the opportunity to submit a waiver claim or drop a guy.
Jesus man, I'm really glad you're in this league to provide a $100 donation every year.
lol kuta. Have fun in two years when GOAT leaves and you're team is mediocre at best.
lol @ saying I suck at reading comprehension. Did you just skip half the posts on this? Here's how it began...

Rafiki thinks eliminated teams should have to field a full line-up.

I don't think the consolation bracket should be forced to, since it only hurts them (since winner get a free 2015 buy-in), but they should just in the interest of fair play.
I agree with rafiki, as long as that team is still playing for something that matter (like a 5th place game). So I'm not sure how you think this means I think hanster should be allowed to not field a full line-up.

This is where rakifi says "everybody or nobody".
All I said was that teams with nothing to play for (like teams in the 11th place game), don't really need to bother setting a line-up.
You and rafiki apparently took that as "Eliminated teams may stash people for next year at will without consequence." Good job, good effort.
You guys realizes it only Wednesday, right? That means it's another four days before game-day. Just because hanster hasn't picked up somebody in the ~12 hours since the waiver period ended, doesn't mean he isn't going to in the next four days.
JFC, it's getting obnoxious that the tiniest **** always becomes some long, drawn-out argument.
How about this; If hanster doesn't field a full-lineup, he wins his match-up by default. Giving him the worse pick of the two. Easy enough? Or do you need to make a bunch of other ******ed posts that just end up going off topic and talking about how I'm donating every year and blah blah blah?
