Mark,
 
Given that clarification, there are only 4 votes in favor of the  
Klein/Blocker proposal and it cannot secure the necessary six votes for  passage.  There 
are 5 solid votes against and Rick has wisely chosen to  abstain.  
 
Since each USML member now is apparently authorized to put rule  changes to 
the league for a vote, I hereby submit the following rule  change for a league 
wide vote:
 
The Constitution will be changed to reflect a prohibition on any trades  
prior to June 1 of any players who's USML contract has not yet begun to  run.  
 
To make this easy, I am going to exclude Jim's exception that would allow  
teams to trade rookie eligible players prior to June 1st as long as the  
acquiring team activates the player immediately upon receipt.  I think  its easier to 
just have a blanket prohibition prior to June.
 
Please cast your votes.
 
Jeff



Just to beat Brad Lee to the punch, I wanted to correct a typographical  
error in my message - it should read "whose" rather than "who's".
 
More importantly, I withdraw my request and instead defer to Rich's  approach.
