(don't know what happened)But, to those of you who are in healthy leagues, I am 100 % with you. A 24 team league is far better. I am in two leagues that ar healthy ( 1 with 1 unmanaged team, 1 wiht 2); they are great. But in the league I would like to see contracted there are presently 6 unmanaged teams ( there were 7). that is effectively like playing in a 17 or 18 team league with NO access via FA to players like Nomar, and Tejada ( they are on unmanaged rosters) If you say those teams should be easy to fill. I say, they've been un managed and un filled for three years. The team I am managing was unmanaged. If something isn't done, I eventually see myself abandoning that team, making it a league where 33% of the teams are unmanaged.

I wouold like Mike to look at the RT leagues and determine the ones that are candidates for contraction. Nominate those leagues, and have the managers in those leagues decide. Input from people who are not going through the same experience clouds the issue.
