Stu, if you want to debate the "goodness" of DP/FLEX, you could, you know, start a thread for that.
While I see what you are proposing, what I mentioned was with the rule written as is, (requiring a player/number in the DP slot on the line-up card, and a player/number in the FLEX slot) it wouldn't work. The rule would have to be reworded to allow one player to fulfill the dual role.
