SaintsFanUnfortunately Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 If the owner who has LT is dumb enough to let him go, let him hang himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claymation Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 i agree, if he wants to move LT, so be it, but he'll be sorry later. Let him burn himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butkus Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 (edited) I'm not sure why so many leagues are so quick to veto trades. Unless your dealing with obvious collusion, it is up to the two parties making a trade to determine fair worth for their "property" vs. what someone else is offering. Not all trades are fair, but commissioners and other league members need to take some of the opinion out of the veto process. IMO, most trades should be approved...(agian unless it's horribly one-sided) In this case I agree that the guy getting LT is psyched. I'd rather be on that end of the trade. But the other guy is getting two starting RB's and obviously feels he needs them... so different strategies that may or may not work.

pzarvell Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 no to the veto... people do odd things in this game all the time. 2 years ago a 12 year veteran in our league got so sick of his starting QB he cut him in week 5 (no trade - just waived him and we do our "drop and pick-ups in person so he did this in front of 15 other owners)...

sportfreak Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Yeah, it's a dumb trade, but not an unfair trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LT is the stud of all studs, but Steven Jackson has the ability to produce similar numbers. JJ is a solid #2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
