[Canadian Seahawk]

with whats in front of me,,,,,,,,,it looks fine to me. you have a kicker (whatever),,,,,,and a wr who would rot on anyones bench for a guy who may or may not get the start this week,,,but when he does start he is a top 10 rb,,,I say its a go.

What you do is start some rumors about one brother saying stuff about another brother...and so on...then you shouldn't have to worry about them trying to help one another.

I don't see anything wrong with that trade. It's basically a waiver pickup and an underachieving kicker on his BYE week for Anderson. Anderson is probably a top-5 RB on weeks Portis doesn't go. He will probably be insignificant, but he has the potential to win a fantasy championship for you (if Portis were to get seriously hurt). You cant say that about Ferguson or Gramatica.

If people have a problem with 4 brothers playing in a money league, they should have been addressed before the season.

The problem though is, he probably invited this type of reaction by contesting a trade that wasn't the least bit unfair, and probably wouldn't even be closely scrutinized if the same trade was made between two different teams. I think trades should be contested only in extreme cases, where it's blatantly clear one team is taking advantage, because if you contest every trade you just open a huge can of worms that can result in it being impossible to get any trade done in the league, and will eventually end up ruining the fun of the league.

I also do not let a new manager that joins (who knew someone already in the league and "nrought them in) to be allowed ANY trades to take place until after 1 season. It has never been a problem in my league 7+ years going strong. Gotta nip that collusion in the "hiney" asap or it will fester until it destroys your league.

I don't like the idea of not letting new managers that join a league make trades for at least a year. All that does is it eliminates some of the fun that they have, and it also puts them at a severe competitive disadvantage. What if their starting QB goes down, and they need to pull off a trade to replace him? Is it fair that he can't do that yet other teams in the league in the same situation can?
