FA Bidding Group 2 update - final bids due MONDAY 10p Eastern

Top 3 bidders (or more in case of tie) get to bid one more time.

First team(s) listed is the leader. The next two (or more) in caps can bid again one more time. THEY ARE IN ORDER OF BID AMOUNT. Leader can bid again too and can't outbid themselves. I'll use their lower bid if it still wins. The remaining teams in lowercase bid, but didn't make top 3. They are also in bid amount order. If you see any issues let me know, especially if you bid on a player but don't see your team listed.
