How to KEEP your keeper league stocked with Owners

I would like to start this thread and hopefully get some creative ideas from all over in regards to being able to supplement a Keeper or Dynasty league when owners all of a sudden up & quit.
I'll start it off with this idea.
Go to other web sites, get to know the commish and/or other owners in other Keeper leagues and make pacts/deals with them.
Make a 2-way agreement with various owners from other leagues in that you & he/she will act as temorary subs for any members of both keeper leagues in that a replacement can't be found in due time.
Now many of you all who already play in alot of leagues will have to obviously cut back ONE league in order for this to work.
But the advantages of this deal are numerous.
First, you get a guaranteed owner to start in a vacant and abandoned spot in which you will be frantically trying to fill - no worrys, you now have insurance!
Second, the owner you do get (albeit temporary for a season) will be more than likely a good one, and therefore keep the competitive edge going with the team he inherits so that, when you do actually find your repalcement, the team inherited, isn't a mess that the previous sbandoned owner left it in (which is probably 90% of the reason that owner quit in the first place because of how poorly his/her team was doing).
Obviously the downside of this is that you have to provide the same availibility in case the "other" keepr league is or does come up with a vacant spot.
But all in all , its the buddy system amongst respectable Keeper league groupies and you guys/girls, take care of your own so to speak.
Don't forget, this isn't a "forever" type of deal. The league you are providing a replacement will have to find a suitable owner for the next season or even before the next season. But at least, it doesn't leave you high and dry trying to replace an owner who left his team in shambles, which just might be , near to impossible to acheieve on a limited time basis.
Lets hear  some other ideas out there!

I know this is just a bit off-topic, but I did not want to start a new thread just to make this comment/plea of sorts and this thread seemed appropriate enough.
To hell with the discussion about how to keep guys... We gots three great leagues formin' here on "the Gridiron", the GBRFL2, KKS's neat IDP-only league, and KJ 76's FAGLY ( ), ALL one member short and, hence, stuck.  Perhaps, a little mission out into the netherworlds of FF boards might be necessary.
