I say yes to both, but I still think something needs to be said about how many times an owner can switch.

Since I voted against internal transfers when previously presented, I think it's only appropriate for me to vote against both Option #1 and #2 in this second go round. All of us have witnessed the bad feelings that have been generated by the approval and denial of past transfers, and I think our league is better served by by putting an end to them. The subjective nature of Option #1 has yet to be clearly defined by any of its proponents. There are yes votes with stipulations, yet nothing concrete is really presented.

Is "for the bettement of the league" like MLB's "In the best interests of baseball", and therefore simply left to the interpretation of whomever is the Commissioner? Or the reigning members of the Rules Committee? Just seems too ambiguous for me.

First and foremost I need to withdraw my vote for Option #1 " Allow Transfers in Special Cases". I can't, with a clear conscience, have an opinion on something I don't agree with.
I got back into this league at the expense of an owner that essentially was told that no internal transfers would be allowed. A few months later we trying to find reasons to allow them?
Sorry, can't do it. I really need to abstain

Yes from me for #1. Don't feel strongly on #2, but I'll vote no.

I vote YES on Options #1 and #2. I'll use papps' reasoning behind #2 as my commentary.

The current vote is:

Option #1 - 7 Yes Votes (:TEX: Rcankosy, :BAL: Shooter47, :TB: Volsraysbucs, :PHI: Papps, :KC: Kungfuwig, :MIL: BrewersGM, :PIT: Profsl)
2 No Votes (:LAD: Bhows, :SF: Flash)

Option #2 - 4 Yes Votes (:TB: Volsraysbucs, :PHI: Papps, :PIT: Profsl, :KC: Kungfuwig)
5 No Votes (:TEX: Rcankosy, :BAL: Shooter47, :LAD: Bhows, :SF: Flash, :MIL: BrewersGM)

Option #1 has received the 5 votes needed to pass. Internal transfers will be allowed for the betterment of the league. The RC will now vote on requirements/qualifications of this special case. Option #2 received 4 Yes votes and 5 no Votes. Internal transfers will not be allowed for the special case of someone wanting to move to their favorite team.
