The idea of a minimum win requirement for GMs in the AFFL has been discussed in the past and seems to generally have pretty good support among the league, though I think Goodell has been reluctant to adopt it.
For what it's worth, and everyone please know I'm not trying to single anyone out, but I want to make sure that if this is discussed we have some of the details to how it would have worked out if adopted earlier. Only one GM in the AFFL does not currently meet the 12-wins in 3 years standard: Shawn B. His team has won 11 games in the last 3 years, and though he has never had a winning season in his 9 years in the league, this is the first time he hasn't met that standard.
After last season ended, two GMS didn't meet the standard: lucky7jc and TylerW. lucky7jc had won 10 wins over a 3 year period, and then his team proceeded to win 8 this year (by far his best season out of 9). TylerW had won 7 games in the 3 year period, and his team went on to win 5 this year.
Skimming through even earlier years, it seems that this standard would lead to 1 or 2 openings in the AFFL a year based on previous results. That said, I suspect that if a minimum win requirement were adopted, we would eventually see every team meeting the requirement every year.
