Are we going to address this too? Or are we not allowed to use the NTC? I just bid on 2 players (Bishop & Ward) that had winning bids using the NTC, but maybe we should restart the bidding on them also (like I mentioned about Bradshaw in the poll thread). Thoughts?

I think the NTC should be re-done as I believe that they are actually illegal 8-o

As for the backload - it is currently under the rules as not illegal, so I think it is OK

So are you saying we should restart the bidding on Bishop & Ward? I think we should only because the bidding might not have gotten this high without owners using the NTC on some bids.

But what if the poll passes? Then the current bid on Bradshaw would be illegal (plus I bid it up using NTC bids).

Is that what is going on in the Ward and Bishop thread? People using NTC? Because bids that aren't correct seem to be occurring in both threads

I would imagine if the rule takes immediate effect then any outstanding bid would still be valid as the rule cannot negate any current backloaded contracts, therefore wouldn't it be logical that it cannot negate a proposed bid?

And what about all my "illegal" NTC bids in that thread? Just because something is within the rules doesn't make it right. I'm done. :-t

I don't care if it is reset, but NTC in FA is illegal, and right now Backloaded contracts are legal.

I just got done updating everything on MFL. All cuts and cap hits are updated through J.Peterson. All FA auction adds are updated through Q.Mikell. I also added the contract/salary for SW re-signing MJD. ;-D

Chipping in my agreement for the NTC being made "illegal" for anything other than re-signings and rookie contracts. Thus, I think Bishop, Ward and Bradshaw should all be restarted for sure - whether this happens now or soon, or once we have an understanding about the back-loading remains to be seen as we're pretty short on time as it is, but I say they should restart no matter what ...

Also, I am all for limiting the back-loading of contracts and leaving any/all front-loading alone (I voted accordingly in the thread). ;-)
