It's impossible to make everyone happy. I mean, not a peep about the 10-5 until you had one. Everyone else just dealt with it because it happens. It's the same with injuries (see Tony) or anything else really. If you want this to have zero variables, then I really don't know what to tell you.
Everyone is out for themselves and over 35ish seasons the different commishes has tried to sort it out. We just had a giant debate about the doh rule. We made modifications if I recall. It's a league of 18 owners. It can't be ran 18 different ways. Maybe we are all more like those historical players than we think.
