Bids have been retracted in the past.  It is not common, but it has happened in the past without warning or penalties.

I think in the past, the retracted bids were on prospects. I remember both Rob and I doing this. It was ok because there was no penalty in dropping th player, and hence a retracted bids = a dropped bid.

I agree with what the others have said in that it's probably fine for the Lackey bid, but it's something that should be patched up the rule book.

I just dont see how it can be legitimized.  If it were how long would the bid be re-opened for.  That could be bad for the person who was previously outbid; ie. they spend money other places or they may have to wait for a new 72 hour clock to start.  Or do they then auotmatically win the player because it may be 72 hours from their bid (excluding others from bidding).

There are way to many if's and buts for this to be a rule we accept.

im not arguing against you, although i dont feel it would be horrible to make the rule effective now and let the previous requests go through for the with drawl but as corey said this league is ran by the RC which i am not a part of so ill just wait for their decision

if it isnt allowed ill deal with it, if it is i would like to withdraw my offer. i think the only arguement is it isnt listed in the rules so cant hurt to try. expecially in the situation where corey would be fine with having lackey

I apologize if I came across insulting, didn't mean to.

Either way.  I think allowing this makes for a bad bad precedent.

wanted to point out Roy's being funny and trying to withdraw a bid on Willy Mo.  No way is this allowed right?

It made ltd go and start withdrawing all of his bids too...

Just cause it isn't in the Rules that you cannot do it doesn't mean you're right Roy...use common sense.

There is no reason to be insulting here. Most people would assume that if something is not in the rules, then it would be allowed. I am not saying that I would be in favor of allowing people to retract bids, but at the same time, me being someone who is affected by the withdraw of John Lackey, I would be in favor of still having him at 12m.

Roy you bring up something that was not thought of when the rules were made or that was merely skipped over. Obviously my opinion does not matter as the league is completely ran by the 5 or 6 guys on the rules committee, and our opinion is irrelevant. Just putting in my opinion, which is pretty much the above post could have been said in a much nicer way.
