2025 DFFL2 AOM
Feb 5, 2025
Attending
Owners: Garts, Shawn, Rowe, Brian, Rob, Carl, Susan,
Brendan
Non-Attending
Owners: Sabu
Commissioner
stated that there were no re-tabled issues from the 2024 AOM, but did point out
that he made a sudden rule change mid-season and that needed to be discussed.
1 – After a
supplemental draft, teams will now have until kickoff of the early Sunday
afternoon games to make any trades and to be at their roster limits. This rule
was implemented to give the teams more than just 1 day to make trades and moves
to improve their rosters.
Keep the
rule in place going forward: Garts, Shawn, Rowe,
Brian, Rob, Brendan, Carl, Susan
Kill the
rule:
Non-Voters: Sabu,
Brian
Rule
will stay in place for the foreseeable future
2 – The
Commissioner advised that we need to revisit the rule that was implemented last
year of a 1 point/first down.
Keep as is: Garts, Shawn, Rowe, Brian, Rob
Change to
.5/first down: Brendan, Carl, Susan
Non-Voters:
Sabu
The
Commissioner opened the floor for new business:
3 – Because
of the way the votes went in point #2 and the discussion that ensued, it was
agreed that we would vote for 1 pont or .5 again:
Keep at 1
point: Brian, Shawn, Rowe, Rob, Garts
Change to
.5: Brendan, Carl, Susan
Non- Voters:
Sabu
Rule
will stay implemented, but again, it is re-tabled for discussion at next AOM
The Commissioner
closed the floor for new business and presented his Commissioner’s Report:
1 –
Finances:
The
Commissioner advised that all prize money was paid out the morning after the
completion of the Championship game.
He also
advised that with the 1-year reduction in league fees, the extra money that had
been put aside for the wrestling belt (that we never got) has now been used up
and fees will return to $70 for next season and forward.
Commissioner
got $17.64 for running the league last year and the pot is now back to $0.00
2 – New
Announcements:
The
Commissioner announced that effective immediately the prize payouts will remain
the same but all supplemental fees will be removed. This means that there will
no longer be any extra charges for supp fees but that does greatly increase the
chances of the league fees needing to be increased if the dollar continues to
tank and/or the website fees increase at all.
Note: On March
22/24, I was informed that the cost of the website is going up this season and
beyond. That may have an impact on all future league fees. I plan on purchasing
the leagues early this season so that I can get a discount for this year, but
please be prepared for a fee increase for the 2026 season (we will discuss at
the AOM of course). I will be waiting until after the 2025 season concludes and
see where the league is sitting financially before suggesting that we increase
the fees.
