This happened in Elite League and Grandad made the claiming team give him back or face getting booted from the league.

Besides the Chargers, I saw like 4 waiver claim denied for this guy so I hope you've pm'd those teams if you know who they are.

Ok it appears that some folks are so fixated on winning at all costs that they do not want to play by the rules of 'fair play'.
I've categorically asked that owners did not put a waiver claim on RT Viveiros .

Cjfred68 - Washington. Claimed.

3 other owners also put a claim in.

PLEASE READ the forum from time to time, this was also on chat so no excuses that you didn't see it.

Any more B.S. like this will result in losing your team.

Look I just got the PM about the RT. The fact that I haven't checked the league forum or chat recently is simple:

My team went 1-15 this season so my season has been over for quite a while, the league is into the playoffs so I'm definately not involved in that, I play MFN exclusively on smart phone so unless I turn my phone sideways, for example to watch a sim of a game, league chat doesnt automatically pop up and I belong to other leagues which means, yes I've devoted more time to those teams that are either in the playoff hunt, in free agency or drafting.

Now dont get me wrong, I still very much have a desire to rebuild this team and get them back to there winning ways and yes I have amassed several draft picks in the upcoming seasons to address the holes in my roster so that's why I do log in and check the waiver wire after each sim.

In fact I saw that this RT was claimed and released again, and went so far as to check the team that claimed him and saw that he didnt have the cap space room to keep him so that's why I assumed he was cut again.

With that being said, I will cut the player, I have no problem fixing an issue, I just felt the need to explain myself since it felt like my ownership status was being threatened and in all fairness, I dont believe I've done anything wrong. If any of you other owners are in multiple leagues can understand, when one of your teams has a down year, besides setting your depth chart, loading a gameplan and checking the waiver wire, you just want the end of season to get here as fast as possible.

Sorry for the long reply, the RT is cut again and I'm sorry for the mixup.

That makes perfect sense , I hadn't thought about how you'd be viewing it. Totally understandable.

Thanks you for the cut.

Unfortunately I can't guarantee that another team won't pick up as there were 3 others who also put a claim in.

i think gm's including myself sometimes, check their rosters and make their moves before checking the league forum. So it would be easy and innocent (most times) for guys to claim whoever is on waivers. Especially if they have a lot of teams or are short on real life time.
