Personally I prefer 72 hours - there's plenty of time in the offseason, and I'd rather let the clock run a little longer to ensure everyone has plenty of time to see players that have been bid on and decide if they want to bid or not.

In my opinion, this is a situation of "it 'aint broke"

Not being rude or crude but we may be finished by March  Just my opinion.

Wait till you get to 71 hrs and you think you will have that player and someone bids on him.72 hrs starts all over again,It's happened to a few of us.Very unpleasant.but it is what it is just hope it goes along well.

This is not a negative situation for me just it is very unpleasant to have this happen,48 hr clock id not so bad

But to some of us it is broke. The offseason is long enough that teams should have an idea of who they want. 48 hours is plenty of time for a league that preaches high activity. Just my opinion.  :thumbsup:

The 72-hr rule is one of the worst legacy rules lingering around older ProFSL leagues.  IMO, this rule needs to be removed from all leagues that still use it.  Yes, it is too late to remove it for CI, but starting with the next position it could easily be changed.

Regardless of whether it's a "minor" or a "major" rule change, I don't think we should be changing rules after an established practice has begun.  I cannot recall when this has ever been done in this particular league.  Just because it's done in some other league doesn't necessarily mean we should set aside what we do in FGM.

As for the "poaching effect", no matter what the time limit is, if someone swoops in an posts a bid close to the end of the time limit, someone is going to go ballistic.  I've seen a multitude of PROFSL members get upset when such a bid is made and what is always ignored is that no rule has been violated--although, judging by the anger I've seen when it happens, you would assume it has. With that, I hope we don't have someone post about the "infamous unwritten rules" associated with baseball.

Finally, although this is a friendly league and we're all entitled to an opinion, I find it interesting that a GM who has just entered the league would post an abrasive comment regarding membership in this league. 

Just saying....
