The Blacklist -- Season V Topic

Each owner who signs up for this league will blacklist one player. All versions (seasons) of that player will be blacklisted not only from the current season but, also, all future seasons of this league. Blacklisted players will be removed from the Draft Center, so building a team will be easy despite the long blacklist.

This league will have no salary cap, ever (we will use the max, 255M). While it may be possible to spend the full 255M, it is not guaranteed to be the best strategy.

You do not need to commit to more than one season, but I will track historical stats (just for fun).

League Rules
  • NO salary cap (we will use 255M)
  • NO DH
  • NO AAA
  • NO WW (it won't be enforceable when the blacklist gets large enough)
  • NO clones
  • YES injuries
  • ANY stadium

To give some context on how evenly matched this league has been so far, last season we had:
  • 0 teams win more than 96 games
  • 0 teams lose more than 93 games
  • Only 5 teams win 90+ games
  • Only 5 teams lose 90+ games
We've also only had a single 100 win team in the history of the league. This blacklist really levels the playing field and lets anyone have a chance to win.
