tjohnson0108 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 So we decided to use message boards to determine trades in our league this year. We need a handful of opinions on trades and then we will make the decision to uphold the trade or veto it. Please let me know your thoughts on this trade: Latavius Murray and Terrance Williams for Lamar Miller and Calvin Johnson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ted Goings Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 My opinion is that you guys need to play your own teams and leagues, and forget about vetoing trades that aren't proven collusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett5821 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I'd say that trade is very even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colkurtz Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Team 1 got much better end of that deal. Latavius is top 5 and doesn't have competition for touches. Gray has been more impressive than Miller thus far so a healthy timeshare is in Miami's future, while Williams could conceivably bounce back from last week to put up numbers similar to Megatron's underwhelming stats. Calvin is an upgrade over Williams, but not nearly as much as Latavius is over Miller. Absolutely no reason at all to veto, but team 1 won... especially since this was RB/WR for RB/WR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REZ Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Nothing wrong with it at all. Not sure why you thought it was worth posting here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anismith Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Yeah, team 1 is getting a much better deal, but not collusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k_23 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Trade determination is crazy!!! Two people agree and make deal, with no crazy cheating at playoff time it is a deal.... League manager should not determine trades. " he may beat my team if that deal goes threw..." No that wrong.. If you wanted a traded player should have offered something....

RiseUp Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Trade isn't so unbalanced that it makes you shake your head in disapproval. Fair enough trade and one you can determine without having to look at rosters and coming up with some bs excuse how it benefits both teams.

Judge Smales Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 So we decided to use message boards to determine trades in our league this year. We need a handful of opinions on trades and then we will make the decision to uphold the trade or veto it. Please let me know your thoughts on this trade: Latavius Murray and Terrance Williams for Lamar Miller and Calvin Johnson Really?? This has to be one of the weirdest rules I have seen in a FF league. The trade looks fine in my opinion, however this rule needs to go before next year or I would find another league. NO ONE outside of your league even has an opinion that is informed since none of us are in your league and don't know everyone's roster, scoring rules, relationship / trade history between the two teams trading, etc. Even the other teams in the league opinion on the trade really doesn't matter. In the leagues I commish we have two co-commish who have the authority to over-ride any trade if teams are cheating. Going on our 17th year and have never veto'd a trade in any of the leagues I have commished. I have seen a lot of trades I personally would not have made but it's not my team and no collusion means no need to step in. You always have the opportunity to not invite teams back for the next season if the owners don't keep lineups submitted, make too many lopsided trades, etc. but let the owners manage their own teams in my opinion. They paid their league dues for that right, let them see how they do, you never know how the season will play out and who this years ODB or CJ Anderson will be. Remember those guys were both likely on your leagues WW at this time last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcat Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 you don't veto trades just because they may be a bit unbalanced. That's between the trade partners period. Only if there is evidence of collusion (one team tanking to help out another) do you even bother. Any league that thrives on vetoing unbalanced trades is just a bunch of azzholes wasting everyone's time. Glad my leagues aren't like yours. What a clusterfk it must be to play in that mess.

Dtsiotos24 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 a top 5 RB (Murray) for a bum in miller and Megatron.... Can I please play in your guys league next year. That has got to be one of the most retarded trades I've seen yet this year. If your on the recieving end of Murray... JUST DO IT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
