  1. So it's an 8 team league of friends which all know eachother.. Anyway.. things began to snowball when Team A decided to deal Dez Bryant.. trade was Dez Bryant for Garcon, Spiller, Crabtree Which doesn't sound too bad at all but still for the fact it happened 3 weeks into the season it was a bit premature of a trade and now it's looking pretty bad. I initially wanted to cancel the trade.. not because Team B was going to get much better.. but because everyone was going to use this trade as an example why their "rape trades" should be allowed. Anyway... I ended up letting it go thru because I didn't want to be a dictator. We also have two brothers in our league.. one of which who has picked up players for his brothers team. He tried a trade where he literally signed Big Ben and tried dealing him for Eli the same day(a few days after he lit up the Redskins.. as you can already see I'm in a league with a bunch of overreactors) and I denied that trade.. not because it would have made him better because it wouldn't.. but because I didn't want him to get comfortable with being able to try to use a smoke screen of doing a "trade" to get the player he wanted. After I declined he threatened to log onto his brothers account and release Eli to sign him to his team no matter what because he said both teams were actually his. (yesterday he actually dealt Antonio Gates to his brothers team for an injured player.. which I accepted because at this point I gave up) and then messaged me to reverse the trade so he gets Gates back because he said he'd rather use Gates for his team this week. (what type of crap is that?) Now.. I posted another thread where a team(the team who dealt away Dez) dealt (Team A)Demarco Murray/Frank Gore/Marques Colston for (Team B)Russell Wilson/Chris Ivory/Ahmad Bradshaw.. my problem with this trade is that the dude who dealt Murray to bring in Wilson has Aaron Rodgers.. so now he has 2 QB's. It's a 1 QB league. So we all expected that he had a deal in place to move Rodgers.. no he didn't and doesn't plan on moving Rodgers either. He plans on keeping both. This is where things get more annoying and head spinning. I messaged the kid and asked him if he had a plan for this move or why he did it.. which he said he doesn't need to explain anything to anyone. So I told the other team who received Murray that I will cancel this trade because the whole league is vetoing the deal and this is where he began to say that if anyone vetos the deal he demands his money back. This is where the Dez trade comes into play because he immediately mentioned that trade and how if that deal went thru this one should too. So he screen shots the convo between the two of them to show the two aren't colluding(I don't understand how that would prove anything but anyway)... in the convo it showed that Team A didn't even want Chris Ivory in the deal.. so the original deal was Murray/Gore/Colston for Wilson/Bradshaw. Like.. even if the dude wants to deal Rodgers for another player(which makes no sense because he's basically just trading a QB for a new RB and his RB for a new QB) everyone knows the trade deadline is November 6th in our league and will wait till he's desperate and offer him horrible/mediocre deals for Rodgers... especially in a 8 team league as is Rodgers isn't as valuable as a RB anyway. So what would you have done/what have you done in a situation where a team asked for their money back? because I honestly gave up/giving up on the league. I plan on returning everyone's money back because I'm a pretty stubborn and petty person and when someone threatens me with an action.. I will just mess things up even worse. I know I had a previous thread but what would you do about the Murray trade? Sorry for such a long post but just venting...
  2. Another part.. He didn't even want Ivory. Just Bradshaw and Wilson.
  3. But what depth? Ivory and Gore are similar in fantasy numbers and Bradshaw is a major step down from Murray.. Yea he got Wilson but he has Rodgers who he doesn't seem like intending on trading anyway. The guy who received Colston cut him for Big Ben.
  4. He may have a bye but is it really worth moving Murray for that? Especially in an 8 team league? Well pretty much the league disbanded. Now it's just a bunch of grown men lashing out at each other.
  5. Like I said. The other team said if the trade isn't allowed to go through they demand their money back. I'm honestly fed up with my league. I never knew such feminine tendencies would come out of men over fantasy sports. Even if it was a 3 for 1 I feel it still makes no sense because why have Russell Wilson placed on your bench? And then raises such a high asking price for Rodgers no one will deal for him.
  6. I can veto.. Team who got Murray said "this is bullsh** I want my money back" though.. So either I would have to let the trade continue or deal with him asking for his money back.
  7. I did ask... Told me he doesn't have to explain anything to me.
  8. Trade went down in my league... 8 teams.... ESPN standard scoring.. Russell Wilson Chris Ivory Ahmad Bradshaw for Demarco Murray Gore Colston The dude who traded Murray has Aaron Rodgers.. it's a 1 QB league.. his two running backs now are Ivory and Bradshaw(before it was Murray and McFadden).. thought maybe he had something up his sleeve to deal Rodgers and bring in more players.. nothing.. he's keeping both. It's a money league but I think he's just tanking and handing out players.. trade makes absolutely no sense at all. I asked what he wants for Rodgers and he told me Jordy Nelson and Matt Forte. I think he's purposely screwing everyone else because other trades that were offered were more than that trade and he declined. Why else would anyone deal Murray to bring in a QB that they will bench? what do you guys think?
  9. Pretty much Sankey and SJax but I think McKinnon puts up numbers this week and don't wanna miss out on him.
  10. So should I grab McKinnon in an 8 team league?
  11. Espn standard scoring Is Holmes worth keeping around? I want to cut sone one for McKinnon Can choose from Andre Johnson Cordarrelle Vjax Djax Holmes Andre Williams
  12. And what about Sankey over Holmes? Sankey or Andre Williams?
