That's a great trade......if you're the one getting Manning, Jones & Boldin.

Never understood the veto thing. I only worry about what is going on with my team.

I think it is weighted way towards the side getting Manning/Jones and Boldin. What Idiot is giving up that much for a crappy QB, a tweener WR and Portis? Let me know I want to laugh at him

You should worry about it. The veto is put into place so a team does not "Rape" a friends team while making his team almost impossible to beat.

It does seem one sided... If you feel it's wrong, veto it, and wait to see how the rest of your league feels... I mean, I don't think 1 vote would cancel the trade, so voice your opinion and let the chips fall as they may.

I'm all for letting borderline stupid trades go through, especially if it's a veteran making the borderline stupid trade... But this trade isn't borderline at all... It drives all the way in, stops at every scenic marker, drinks the water, and takes a dump at every rest stop through a tour of stupid land.

I have to believe the person giving up Manning and Boldin simply don't know what they're doing and needs to be saved from themselves.

Unless there is evidence of collusion then I don't think trades should be nixed. Is this a dynasty or redraft league?

That's always been my stance: fantasy football presupposes competency. If you are dumb enough to honestly trade McNabb for a #3 WR, so be it. Now if you are out of the playoffs and dumping players to a buddy, that's a different story.

Of course, I just had a commish reverse the following trade on me in the name of "protecting the integrity of the league" (whatever that means):

Giving up: Colston, TJ Housh and Leftwich. Receiving: Palmer, Ward, and the Bears.

Needless to say, I'm bitter.
