Fantasy pool rule dilemma

hey all
looking forward to another great yer of fantasy

here is the issue arisen in this pool Im in

the commish wants to abolish all pickups once the first game of the week begins so if there is a game on Thursday, and there is weekly, he is saying no pickups allowed after that!!

obviously pickups for players who have not played yet that week

so we want pickups to be allowed up until 1pm on Sunday

whats everyones take on this

I personally think its idiotic but hes saying it makes people think more and use their roster

I dont particularly fancy the commissioners rule. I think having the ability to maneuver until kickoff Sunday and into the 4pm games as we'll is more player friendly. However, this would surely make your league more challenging. Theoretically, how often are you making pickup so deep into the week anyway? 

but this scenario, should Dez bryant be questionable on the injury report with a concussion and a GTD, lets say your backup wr is playing Thursday night
all of a sudden Dez gets ruled out at game time??

many scenarios this way to not allow for optimal lineup as I would be faced with using a scrub, taking a zero depending on depth.....injuries are huge in fantasy and I think the only way to offset is to allow pickups

my league uses a waiver bidding system where you blindly bid on FA and the highest bidder is awarded the FA.  The key is that waviers are processed twice a week, thurs morn and sunday morning.  After years of fantasy i found this to be best and fairest system should solve most problems lots of leagues face

I've rethought this through and this rule is stupid. Nothing's broke don't screw the game up.
