2020 Rule Changes Vote
Re: 2020 Rule Changes Vote
So.... I might be over complicating this, but I have difficulty voting on Prop 3 within the context of the entire ballot.
Essentially, my issue is this...
If Prop 2 passes (meaning we go to a 3-game series for the wildcard), I'd like to vote NO on Prop 3...
but if Prop 2 does not pass (meaning we stick w the 1 game wildcard), I'd like to vote YES on Prop 3.
If I'm the only one thinking this way, I'll just makeup something, it's fine, but I wanted to throw it out there in case anyone else had similar thoughts and see if there was a way to maybe postpone the vote on Prop 3 until after Prop 1 and Prop 2 are decided.

Let's just all agree to pass Prop 1, and then it won't be an issue.
Re: 2020 Rule Changes Vote
Well, just one more clarification on Prop #3 ....
For the 2020 free agent draft, will all 4 wildcard teams be considered "playoff teams" regardless of how this vote goes?

Yes.
Re: 2020 Rule Changes Vote
To be clear, I will not be voting on this ballot. Chuck can/should/will vote on my behalf, if he hasn't already.

PLEASE vote the 1 game playoff nonsense the hell out of this league.
I hear the silent majority loves it. Sickening.

Re: 2020 Rule Changes Vote
Please keep the 1 game wildcard playoff:
Winning a divisional title should mean more than winning the wildcard.
It is very exciting.
It help neutralizes the bonus/penalty rules.

We've already lost 1 great owner who hated the rule, then lost interest in the league, more will be on the way.
This is lightweight shit, and the worst part about a nearly perfect league. Fucking incredible.

So, if I vote twenty times to get rid of the second wild card, they all will count, right?

Bump.
Only 18 votes so far.

As a guy who this rule wont effect for probably 4 to 5 years. I will say those two MLB wildcard games were exciting
ps full disclosure I voted to get rid of it.

Re: 2020 Rule Changes Vote
However the vote goes, I'll live with it. I understand why someone would be for it. It is exciting, and potentially gets more managers interested. I just think playoffs should be a series not a game.
Re: 2020 Rule Changes Vote
I agree with you regarding the playoff series, but I look at this as a play in game. Which is why I believe the loser should have a higher draft position and not be lumped in with the playoff teams.
Ideally, you want an equal series to go 7 games - which in a way, ultimately is decided in the last game.
