I changed my vote. I see the merit of both ideas. However, I feel like the competitive nature of having roster limits forces owners to make better decisions on scouting instead of trying to cast a wide net and see what ends up working out. That approach sounds a bit too easy and if I’m being honest, a tiny bit player greedy. Look, I have a scout list of under 21 players that is over 80 players deep. I really want over 10 new prospects this window, but I’ll probably only have spots for 5-6. Making these tough decisions and choosing the right players and not as many players is what being a good owner is about. Also, increasing the player roster will just make more work for the administrators of the league, and I think they do an amazing job putting in their personal time for this league. I would hate to ask them to work more hours as is. I wouldn’t do it to my students, or my employees when I know their plates are already full.
Please understand this is just my opinion. I’m not taking anything personally or against anyone. I love the idea that we’re having this discussion and making the league evolve and being more competitive and exciting. Besides, I’m just one vote and I wouldn’t even be pissed if it passes.
Cheers!
