That's true. Also for lower leagues transactions under 100k can be important, and after the draft it's not impossible to land a great trainee for under 100k.

I only bring it up because the filter is there for league teams. So there's a reason why it was implemented, and at least there should be an option.

Now an interesting topic of discussion is whether it should be financially feasible to buy and fire "scrimmage scrubs" in the first place. Unfortunately not enough end-of-bench guys are willing to take minimum salaries and, as a result, the TL market for those who are is inflated. Is there a rival league siphoning off the Sasha Vujacics of BB? ;)

Haha, sure. I need them too! Really though I'm not in favor of anything that penalizes buying scrimmage scrubs. I'm just wondering if maybe there should be more low-salary players in the player pool. For example maybe around 1/3 of each draft class should consist of players with less than 1k salary. Many would still be fired but this would be good for the market and for us.

Not a big issue though, it's purely navel-gazing. I don't think I care too much at all.

Maybe you can have options as to what shows up on your news feed kind of like Facebook does? This would allow owners to set their own parameters for what they want to see. Maybe one person can't stand it when his news is flooded with arena construction/completion posts and another loves them. A filter that allows you to select whether or not you want to see them would be great IMO. I don't necessarily mind seeing the purchases under 100k show up, but obviously some do so give us the option and a check box....and bam! It's personalized....and everyone can sleep easier at night...
