File has been flipped. Free agency sim #1 - Wednesday night Free agency sim #2 - Friday night Free agency sim #3 - Saturday night Free agency sim #4 - Sunday night Free agency sim #5 - Monday night Spring Training - Tuesday night Opening Day - Wednesday night Free agency might go a little quicker because of the smaller pool of players, but I'll update everyone as we go. also clearly says i will update everyone as it goes, as far as if it will move quicker. Nowhere does he post in this thread to update saying he will sim early to give notice.,...

thats a bigger sign that you need to be in though. takes five minutes to look at salaries, figure out your bid and send. I agree, Erbes fucked this up, but in the end we cant take Ichiro back from Chicago now, so its a matter of what compensation.

i did not have time to do it until tonight. and by the schedule he posted it should have been no issue to send it tonight....
if the schedule would have been sunday night, i would have had to find time somewhere.
but since it wasnt, this is fucking stupid.

this is not right.... he needs to do soemthing about this... you cannot as the commish state a end of season schedule in a post. and then change it and the things it affects at will without notice. THAT IS NOT HOW A LEAGUE RUNS! people have commitments, i did not have the time to think about and send my bid until tonight,.

pretty small contract to offer after ponying up 37m for the fee I had tons of money to spend now, and didn't want him that badly. I figured if I could get him on a cheap contract while using up some of the cash on hand I had now, it would be worth it. If he wanted $10 mill/year or more for that long, plus a posting fee, I didn't think he was really worth it. I only wanted him if I could have him on a bargain contract.

There was nobody left in FA and I had 5-6 guys telling me to go ahead and sim. I'm sorry you missed out on him, but you had 4 days to make a bid.

ABSOLUTELY REDICULOUS. I WAS PLANNING ON TOSSING HIM 14.6MIL PER YEAR AND MY BID WOULD HAVE CLEARED THE 21MIL MINIMUM TO. THATS FUCKING STUPID.... Of course you can say that now... But.....If you knew what you were going to bid...why not take 2 minutes and send it? It absolutely makes no sense to wait until the last minute. I agree with you about him simming early though...I was planning to send my bid last minute but I figured he would pull some shit like this.

there should be compensation. You did say you'd let people know and people work. He was obviously waiting on a trade offer to change whether he offered or not. That's not his fault.

I don't agree with the name calling shit though. Pretty much uncalled for.

I don't need one because I wasn't planning to bid on Ichiro---I thought about it, but decided not to. I would like one though, lol.
Toronto should get it only.

I let my emotions get the best of me and I made a poor decision. I'm calling Oprah at the moment to schedule my apology.

While I do understand we should have known he would sim early, it still isn't cool to make a big decision like this ahead of schedule. I had debated an offer for Ichiro, knowing I had until the last FA sim scheduled for today. I get home last night after a meeting I had to attend to find out that FA is done and Ichiro is already signed. FA and ST are the two parts of the season you can't speed through because 5-6 people in the league get in a hurry. It's the one way to run guys off.
