Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Unless you've been in antartica you have some idea on this.

We'll sort out this issue first.

When it will take effect will be voted on afterwards.

BTW, I want to add that we can restrict the rule (on good faith) that no negotiations will be allowed until AFTER a player sells (to ease Joe's concerns). I know we can't police it, but I trust the honesty of the guys in this league in that regard.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Are we excluding the "yes as part of a larger deal, but no straight up" option? The way it is asked is all inclusive.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

I think that is what it is meant to be.

SHould we add a third option, yes part of larger, no straight up?

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

The fact that we were unclear with the rule to begin with lead to this mess. Let's be clear now.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Modified the poll with a 3rd option. If either of the yes's win without a majority we'll hold a revote between the 2.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

What if no wins without a majority?

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

then we revote the top 2

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

can we eliminate "bigger" from the 2nd Yes option?

edit: or define "bigger".<script src="chrome://greasemonkey/content/scripts/1102161148673"></script><script src="chrome://greasemonkey/content/scripts/1102237157909"></script>

OK, just wanted to be clear. ;)

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Agreed!

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

yes, I'll reword it

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

I added a 4th option, these votes will be added to either or yes options if needed. And I change my vote to be that way.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

how do you define "alone" in a "trade"?

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

I think Joe is being parnoid.

B/C that means the tendering team and bidding team have to find some way to make 10 other people not up the bid. B/C thebididng team would still have to win the bids.

We can't even make a poll right the first time, how are they going to do that?

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Nothing else going from the tendering team to the other team involved, except for the decline of the RFA. That's how I would define it.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Alone as in I decline, you gt the player and send me copensation some sort with nothng but me declining in return.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

You're far too trusting.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Gotcha....can you change my vote to the general "YES" vote then?

Edit: I just see that being part of a package

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

sure thing

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Just to clarify....

This is still a yes vs. no....

if the total yes is more than no, than we just decide between which yes.

If that's not how the poll will be tallied then I will change my vote to either yes.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

correct, if the yes's outweigh the no's we just then clarify which yes

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

You guys are paranoid.

How do you stop 10 other people from bididng on a player w/o setting the price higher than their value (meaning bididng a high enough cb)?

PLease someone tell me how to do this, so I can use it.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

I agree that it's a moot point, I just don't "trust" anyone at this point. So yes, I believe that also makes me paranoid.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Am I the only sane one here?

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

scary thought eh? ;)

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Very much so...

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

voted... guess it won't be too hard to guess where I voted! ;)

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

Guys, what is going on? I thought we decided to drop this issue until next off-season?! Where did this come from? If people want to argue the issue, that's one thing - but I really, really don't think we should be voting on anything right now.

Re: Should teams be allowed to trade declining a RFA to the winning bidder?
 

I think the voting is going to help us stop arguing. We don't have to decide on WHICH sesaon this will or won't go in effect right now... we can hammer that out later. But obviously we weren't getting anywhere with 8 pages of passion...
