Eliminating E-Bay style FA close

The Immortal Ramirez · September 1st, 2005, 10:59 AM

I recommend we vote on the Rule for the 2006 year and onward the portion of the rule stating that FA ends at midnight and is 'last bidder wins' thing.

I agree. I think we should just adjust the clock from the 48-hour off-season to the 24-hour in-season.

Shouldn't we put this up for vote before the season begins ina few weeks?

FTR, I can back Patrick's idea here.

Why wait to vote. Make all the rule change votes stickys at the top of the forum, and as people come on board, they vote yea, nea, etc.

yeah lets get the voting done now.

You guys are missing the fact that this was brought up LAST season, and has been bumped by me to be addressed NOW.

Since this was already decided I figured I would throw a little red into the bar chart!

I guess I am behind the times...not really sure what we are eliminating?

preds was evil last year and took advantage of a loophole in the rule that basically ended all off season free agency actions at midnight.

preds went and placed a bunch of bids a 1 min before midnight and got a bunch of players on the cheap because the rest of us didnt realize the implication of the ebay style end of auctions at the end of off season free agency.
