This isn't about punishing PcB. I would think of punishment as something to the effect of: you can't keep Gordon and because you did something underhanded, you are losing the #1 draft pick. PcB didn't do anything wrong, so there's nothing to "punish" him for.
This is purely closing a loophole. That's what we did when Ace started signing IR players. We changed the rule so that he couldn't do that without being stuck with their prior year's draft position. We didn't grandfather Ace when making that rule change. That wasn't punishment either. Like PcB, Ace had taken advantage (I don't mean that in a bad way) of an area where we didn't have a rule but needed one. So we implemented the rule and effectively made it retroactive to include what Ace had done. Ace wasn't "punished." We just closed the loophole. Ace was no worse off than if we had that rule all along. That's all I'm advocating for PcB.

This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena. ![[Image: ITgoyeg.png]](http://i.imgur.com/ITgoyeg.png)
