....this wouldn't fly in my home league.

haha good lord I'd love to see how fast this would get veto'd in our money league. 5 minutes?

[Camcmart]

So I made the initial trade proposal as a joke and I didn't expect it to be accepted... you guys can veto if you want, I didn't expect it to go through in the first place

That's good enough for me. Consider it vetoed by the Wall Studs.

 

 

 

Thanks for your honesty Cam

Well it appears this one will being going through, joke or not. It seems 5 veto's are required to keep a trade from going through. This one will process tomorrow morning. 

It's not the end of the world. No worries Cam.

[STUDque]

I guess that also requires 5 people to be paying attention

unless it is obvious and blatant collusion then I don't veto trades.

 

IMHO: I don't think trades should be voted on by other members. I think that if the league commish sees some funny stuff going on his role is to step in and rectify it.

 

BTW - I don't think there is any collusion going on here....I think it is one member who is experienced taking advantage of one who isn't....that's not illegal....questionable, but not illegal.

I went 3-1 in my fantasy leagues this week. TBT took me down in the official league and I had some ugly wins otherwise. Looking around, it seems as if there was lots of ugly matches.

 

This dang NFL thing is hard to predict.

4-0 for me.

 

broke even on Fanduel after winning all of my 50/50's 2 weeks in a row.  Julio being hurt didn't help...

 

First bye week upon us.

Agree to a degree. I don't particularly think this one should have gone through since it was stated it was a joke already. And the team who gave up more was 0-3, now 0-4 and didn't even set a complete lineup last week. 

 

I do dislike people vetoing trades just because it helps out a team they are worried about though. That isn't fantasy football. But yes, I generally think all trades should be reviewed by the commish. Especially in cases like this when there are quite a few people who have raised eyebrows. 

 

Like I mentioned before, it's not the end of the world in this particular case though.

You prefer it to draft kings?

[StrokerAce]

You prefer it to draft kings?

 

I do... I think Fanduel salary pricing is much more flexible and allows you to create some really good lineups.  I also think that most of the sharks are playing draftkings and it's easier to win on fanduel because the competition isn't as sharp.  

I don't do any of the gpp's and play cash but have had some pretty good luck in 50/50's and double-ups the last few weeks.

I usually do 2 lineups and no more than 3.

I generally prefer the tournaments plays on DK and had alot of luck a couple of years ago. Last year not nearly as much. But I also haven't been watching close to as many games and I think that hurts me. 

[STUDque]

I think I could do the daily fantasy if I had Red Zone channel. That would make it easier to stay plugged in.

Damn you to Camcmart and Kadoz for snaking my waiver wire picks just before they got to me in 1 league. And damn you 1.21jjwats and Johnny's eighballs for doing the same thing in another league! 

[StrokerAce]

Glad to see I'm sitting nicely in 1st in both golfspy leagues! 

[Undershooter]

Sitting in 2nd in the money league as well!

 

edit: I wonder who that lone loss came to in that league? 

[STUDque]

Being in the middle of the pack is right where I want to be.

 

BECAUSE YOU'LL NEVER SEE ME COMING WHEN I TAKE THAT

I have to crow - I scaled back to one league this year because of Penny. It's a keeper league with lots of bizarre rules including a best ball format that counts 2 QBs, 3 RB, 3 WR, TE, K, DST.

 

I'm hurting at QB.

 

We have a guy who had Johnson and another stud go down. In frustration he said he was open to a trade. So I offered him Howard, T. Taylor and a 3rd round pick for Rodgers and a 6th round pick. You need to know that Rodgers is worth his weight in gold in a 2 QB format.

 

I'm now getting the two best balls of Rodgers, Newton, Carr, Flacco at QB. I will drop Flacco once Carr is healthy.

 

I went from mid pack to contender and have the rights to Rodgers for the next two seasons.

I felt the same exact way you feel. After I looked at it, it might be more even than we think.

 

Nelson and OBJ have been vastly under performing this year and WR aren't that valuable in that league. That RB from Chicago has a decent upside for the rest of the season too.

 

 

 

 

My gut was to veto but I think I'll leave it be.

Still think that was a lopsided trade?

Graham..... please make sure I am able to drop OBJ now that he broke his damn leg...grrrrr.  He is currently a "can't drop" player

I'm pretty sure I have it set to where all players are drop-able. I know it is set like that in the older of the two leagues. I'll make sure it is set like that in both. 

 

Edit: apologies. That was a slight oversight on my part. Both leagues do not observe ESPNs undroppable players now.

Feel your (his) pain.  I've got to drop him too in one of the other leagues!

I am getting crushed in our MGS league

I'm stomping people in my other leagues. Talk about highs and lows!

Anybody see any issue with the trade in MGS league #2?? I do not. If there is no objections, I will go ahead and push the trade through later tonight or tomorrow before the thursday games. 

[StrokerAce]

I have a feeling that Team Apel threw in the towel a couple weeks ago...

 

[STUDque]

Yeah I agree. It's really a shame to see people give up on a team this quickly.
