DFFL2 AOM 2018

February 1, 2018

Non-involved owners: Sabu

Fred

Proposes that all missed FG’s & converts = -1 point:

Yes: Carl, Fred, Brian, Cam, Susan, Rob, Brendan

No: Chad

Proposal passes for immediate implementation

Proposes that QB kneel downs should not be considered a sack.

After a lengthy discussion, there was not enough evidence that shows that this is actually happening.

Retable to 2019 AOM

Brian

Proposes that roster size change from 21 to 22:

Yes: Carl, Rob, Cam, Fred, Brian, Susan, Chad

No:

Abstain: Brendan

Proposal passes for immediate implementation

(from here on, the AOM sort of went back and forth to several points and back again, so I will be putting all the votes for a topic together and not including irrelevant discussions that were put forth, I will only be keeping relevant information with the proposal)

Proposes that IR players get replaced with a sort of WW format instead of waiting until the next Supplemental draft:

Yes: Brian

No: Cam, Brendan, Rob, Fred, Carl, Susan

Abstain: Chad

Amendment: Fred

Proposes to include a one-time use IR spot that can only be used once and then is gone:

Yes: Fred, Chad, Cam, Rob, Susan, Carl, Brendan

No:

Amendment: Through conversation

Proposal that the IR spot be a multi-use roster spot that never disappears and not just a one time use spot, as long as the player meets the NFL criteria for an IR player:

Yes: Rob, Susan, Brian, Carl, Brendan

No: Fred

Proposal passes for immediate implementation

Through the course of a conversation the subject of scrapping the Supplemental drafts completely in favor of a WW was brought forward and discussed:

WW:

Supp Drafts: Cam, Fred, Brendan, Rob, Chad, Carl, Susan

Continuing with Brian’s proposals:

Proposes that a lottery ball for the bottom 4 non-playoff teams be implemented and be binding for the entire draft, not just the 1st round:

Yes: Chad, Fred, Rob, Susan, Brendan, Brian, Cam

No: Carl

Proposal passes for implementation at the conclusion of the 2018 season. Brian argued to have implementation immediately but it was unable to be finalized as there were 2 votes for immediate implementation and 4 votes to wait until the end of the next season. So the Commissioner made the ruling to wait until the end of the next season.

Proposes incorporating a Kick Return Specialist (KR) position into the starting lineup who would only get points for kick returns:

Yes: Brian

No: Cam, Fred, Brendan, Rob, Chad, Susan, Carl

Amendment: Susan

Proposes that the KR position be a team position regardless of who is the actual kick returner:

Yes: Susan, Carl

No: Cam, Brendan, Rob, Fred, Chad

Proposal and amendment are rejected

No one else had any other proposals.

Commissioner proposals:

Advised that draft positions are determined as Champion drafts #10, Runner Up drafts #9, all other positions are determined by current season record with head to head then PF used to break ties. Wanted to ensure that this was still okay with everyone:

Yes: Fred, Rob, Brendan, Carl, Susan

No: Brian

Determination of draft positions will not change

Proposed that any owner who has not paid their league fees or at least made an arrangement with the Commissioner by the start of the Supplemental Draft #1 will have all trading & Supp Draft privileges revoked and the Commissioner shall advise on the message board to the league which team cannot be traded with:

Yes: Brendan, Carl, Susan, Fred, Brian, Rob

No:

Proposal passes for immediate implementation

 

Asked if there is a need for a written rule for teams who are unable to field a legal starting lineup. There is currently no penalty for an illegal lineup:

Yes:

No: Carl, Brendan, Susan, Fred, Brian, Rob

Proposal rejected

Proposed that the TB loser should have some form of public humiliation (ie: Standing on Sask Dr. & Albert with a sign that says I suck at fantasy football or something similar) instead of the Loser buying a round:

Yes: Fred, Carl, Susan, Brian (but suggests pictures instead)

No: Rob, Brendan

Retable to 2019 AOM if necessary

Proposal that both owners involved in the Toilet Bowl share the cost of the round that is to be purchased at the draft:

Yes: Rob

No: Brendan

Not enough votes to determine. Retable to 2019 AOM if necessary

No Change:
