Am I wrong thinking this trade should be veto'd? - The Orange Mane

Jerry Curl · 09-27-2006, 02:51 PM

P. Manning
T. Jones
A. Boldin

for

D. Culpepper
C. Portis
T. Williamson

I think it's way to much for just portis....

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

Jerry Curl · 09-27-2006, 06:28 PM

I'm getting neither, two other teams in my division are trying to make this trade, veto i say.

Northman · 09-27-2006, 07:01 PM

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

CBF1 · 09-27-2006, 07:04 PM

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.

Northman · 09-27-2006, 07:10 PM

meh, its all in fun. If two teams want to do a trade than so be it. Im not going to stop them. I dont take FF all that seriously.

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.

OrangeShadow · 09-28-2006, 08:23 AM

i worry about my team and my team only if someone else wants to make a dumb trade thats there perogative. It just means i know who to trade with

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.
