Is this collusion? PLEASE HELP

Postby Kanos » Sat Oct 20, 2012 1:49 pm

Person A is going to give Germaine Gresham to Person B. In return he gets Ahmad Bradshaw (who is currently on person B's bench because he has great running back depth). After a week they will trade back. Keep in mind, person B already has Scott Chandler, ranked number 7 in tight ends on ESPN this week.

I find this to be collusion an feel I should veto it.

The trade is one-sided, and aren't one week bye trades frowned upon? It's a ten-man league so everyone has a good player or two on their bench, wouldn't it be bull if we all worked together to make the best teams every week?

What do you think?

Thanks,

Absolutely collusion. First of all, the trade is lopsided. Then you have the trade back which is a no-no. Either one is a valid reason for a veto. But doing both calls for the commissioner to get involved and put a stop to this even without a vote.

BTW, If I was to trade Bradshaw, I would put him on the open market and try for a WR1/2 or TE1. The fact that he is only dealing with person B means its collusion all the way

That is definitely collusion and must be vetoed.
