ANyone ever quit because your trade was veto'd?

[Jockpunk]

If it wasn't a work league, or if you dont think there will be any consequences, I'd quit the league. With losers like that in your league how enjoyable is it really going to be for you? I would ruin it for them.

[Jockpunk]

better yet, just tell them you are going to knock their teeth out if they veto it. That should work.

I commish a league and I vetoed a trade. This was the trade...

This guy wanted to give RB Priest Holmes and RB Artose Pinner for RB Curtis Martin and RB Steve Jackson. BUt here's the real catch. The team that was going to end up with Holmes already had Culpepper and TOmlinson. Can you imagine a team with Culpepper, Tomlinson and Holmes? Might as well just give him the trophy right then. I vetoed the trade because the other team was getting ripped off and didn't know it, and the rest of us would have been playing for 2nd place.

Wouldn't want you as my commish if your vetoing trades just because a guy already has a good team. I don't think that trade is as far off as you do and I wouldn't have vetoed it just because it made a good team better. Unless there is pure collusion going on you should let the trades people make between each other go through.

If these are indeed the facts, then a veto is acceptable IMO.

Would anyone here give up Priest Holmes and Artose Pinner for Curtis Martin and Steve Jackson? If you say yes, then I want to be in your league


Its not about the catch. It about preventing someone from getting ripped off. How is that fair to the rest of the owners if given the opportunity any owner could have gotten Holmes for cheap. The commish is there to prevent that from happening.

I wouldn't unless I had a gun to my head. Vetoing because a team is good and going to get better is just wrong IMO.

This situation is the reason that all me leagues are commish controlled on trades.

I need to see both rosters. If C Martin is his best RB, how is giving up T Jones and T Owens and getting M Booker and T Henry going to make his team better?

It's K Jones, an unproven rookie ...I have a backup plan if this doesn't go thru...





me and the other team involved will have a heavy finger when it comes to vetoing other trades...we're not happy about this--again, it may still pass.

I agree, this is the best way to handle trades, as long as you take feedback from the teams involved in the trade, as well as the rest of the league.

This trade should be allowed. In our 2 keeper league, this trade happened:

TO and 11th pick
for
picks 4 and 6th

which translates to TO and the 13th pick of 14 rounds for picks 6 and 8 after you add the 2 keepers.
It ended up being this:

TO and Jason Witten for Reggie Wayne and Justin McCareins with his 2 4th picks and NE and Vandy with his 2 6th picks. I had offered a combo of 1st and 2nd rounders before the draft and later picks, but it did not get accepted. It left me with a grude, but I let this trade go. They both wanted it, and it wasn't to spite me, the guy just wanted 2 younger WRs instead of TO.

umm because henry is better than martin? Ya trade vetoes suck. i voted for a trade veto but only because it was portis for for jimmy smith or someone like that. and as far as commish vs vote vetoes, id have to say that: i like votes just because the majority isnt usually wrong.
