Unfortunately in a private league there doesn't have to be a good reason.  I was in a league where the comissioner dropped the top three teams in the satandings by releasing all their players.  He did this one month in.  Then with a month to go one of the other teams was well in front so first the comissioner locked him from doing anything to his team, and when that didn't work he benched all his players.  Needless to say the comissioner and his buddy were in the finals with the commisioner's team winning.  Just hope you get in with an honest commisioner.  Best way is start the league yourself or get in a friend's.  Failing that you can stick with a public league.  Most private league commisioners are good ones though.

I'm pretty sure you can't do this once the season starts. As commish, you can control the dead team, but nobody else can. You don't have many options short of killing the league and starting a new one. At least you won't have to re-draft.

I believe sportsline.com will allow divisions (which then takes care of matching up games.) If you are doing it by hand, it's really hard unless you've done it before. I'm sure there is fantasy scheduling software out there.

Kristjan,  \n\nYou will not be seeing and injured list at Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball this season or likely any season in the future until the NBA goes through another rule change. \n\nPrior to the 2005-2006 season the NBA got rid of the Injured List in real life. Previously there were a number of conditions on injured list moves and restrictions on how long they had to be out etc. The NBA did away with all of that and instead increased the roster size of the teams. The theory being that if you had a couple of injured players you would still be able to put a competitive team out there due to the added men on the team. \n\nThe Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball structure is designed to mirror NBA rules in this manner, so before the last season Yahoo! also did away with the Injured List. Your league commissioner had the ability to adjust the number of bench spots available before the season started. I believe the default is three bench spots but your league commissioner could have set it higher to make up for the lack of an injured list. \n\nI appreciate the added level of difficulty this brings to the game, it is unfortunate to have to think about dropping a top player because he is injured, but take solace in the fact that all of your competitors have the same challenges.\n\nBest of luck.

Possibly you are already eliminated from playoff contention. Thats how it works in my league. When you are mathmatically eliminated. You are locked from picking up or dropping players.Sorry.

Position eligibility in basketball is always a little stranger than it is in other sports. Part of it might be that the position designations are a little iffy at times. Teams don't always have two guards, two forwards and a center on the floor. Besides, I don't think Yahoo has any set minimums for position eligiblity for hoops. It just is whatever they say it is. You might petition their fantasy sports people to see about getting this player's eligibility changed. If it's the player that I'm thinking of, I imagine quite a few other people have had the same complaint.

Whenever you can trade 2 good players for 1 superstar player, it is a steal!  Because now it will open up another slot on your active roster and now you can play your other good player that's always in your bench.  But if you don't have depth, I wouldn't pull the trade trigger.

you start a trade by like gathering up and make a choice of who your going to drop out and ofcourse you can drop someone out if you want without any penlty.yea you can pick up someone no one picked before as long as it's not in the middle of a game and you have to trade someone on your team to do that

depending on the site, yes.\n\nit sounds like you are having a trust issue with your commissioner, since you asked about him changing HIS players and not someone else's.  you should come right out and ask him.  if doing that is against the rules you agreed upon, i'd bring it to the attention of the other managers as well.  \n\nsome folks will stop at nothing to win.

Less than 10% chance.  Not even enough chance for Ordonez.\n\n2-for-1 trade is hard.  Usually, the other team still has to drop one player.  Two mediocre players for a good one?  Not a chance.

I think you may need steals on this team.  Your pretty much set at 3 pt FG's.  Also, if there is any player that you may trade at this point in the season, I would look at Hill and Eddy Curry.  Hill has a propensity for getting injured (I know because he has burned me in my fantasy teams in the past) and Curry who is capable to getting 10 rebounds one night and 2 rebounds the next.

No. They remain on that team until they get dropped by the owner. Due to the can't cut list, the best players remain on the team. Then you better hope you have the highest waiver on week 15 :-) so you can get the best player available.

Sure If the NBA likes you calls go for you. ITS FIXED. Don't let anyone else say otherwise.

Maybe you broke some rule.  Email the person in charge of the league or in charge of fantasy baseball to see if you can resolve things.

the player you're dropping is in a pending transaction. either cancel the pending trade you have proposed or drop a different player.\n-nny
