jono -> Trading deadline problem (8/2/2006 12:06:55 AM)
|
I'm playing a fictional League starting in 1948 and a couple of teams made a trade on Aug 1, I went to the association menu and saw that the trading deadline for my league was 7 Aug. Thinking that the trade deadline might have been different back then I did some research. Before 1921 there was no trading deadline. In 1921 it was changed to 1 Aug. From 1922 until 1985 it was 15 June. In 1986 it changed to 31 July. I'm thinking that the reason my trading deadline went to 7 Aug is that I'm playing a 154 game season, 8 games shorter than a 162 game season, which somehow added 8 days to the trading deadline. I also noticed that the All Star issue came out on June 26 and the 5 day all star break didn't come until 3 July.
