Al you know as well as I do these teams take on a personality of their own.
Some are winners season after season but sometimes when a team isn't getting it done you have to evaluate the team from player to base.Sometimes benching a player or picking up a player and base in trade can help....and sad to say sometimes its the coaching staff Al,maybe they just are not connecting with the team anymore...the team needs a new offensive or defensive personality or scheme...sometimes changes have to be made...coaches need to be fired(they can always get hired for another team or an expansion team later!!!)I try to keep 3 coaches per team.Head coach is the personality like Mike Ditka or a Sean Payton,the leader but the off/def coordinators carry responsibility too.Each coach has his reputation,his stamp whether its a June Jones run n shoot offense to a 3-4 Dom Capers defense.If its a particular theme for losing(defense cant stop anyone or offense cant score)again maybe change is needed!
I too have a draft and also a waiver system where players that are not on a team anymore they can be picked up and maybe make an impact.The worst teams get the 1st picks just like the pros...it keeps things fair
.....the only other choice is if you like all your teams is to get some nfl teams or other coaches solitaire teams you dont like,
incorporate them into your league(or into a rival league)then you wont feel bad for kicking their behinds(you hope
) week after week
(I'm just teasing on that one Al)
In all honesty I agree with the others....we are the commissioners of our leagues......keeping it fair and fun is what its all about!The teams seem to take care of things on the field(good or not so good)!!!!!!
