Oh, give me a break. We were both sending trade offers back and forth the last two days. You wanted Best (as did a lot of other people based on trade offers), and he is far and away the best player in that trade to this point in the season.

Didn't you immediately start doing this same thing after your trade with wutamess pre-draft? Immediately thought you got the short end of the stick.

You know you don't have to accept the trade don't you. I have a feeling you were feeling pretty good about the trade until you read what others thought of it.
[Reply]

Exactly.
[Reply]

Yeah, I'm not in contention so I really don't care a whole lot, but that trade may have been borderline veto worthy. Crazy stuff can happen, but that may have just handed him a nice chunk of change.
[Reply]

Are you kidding? This is two 3-0 teams making a trade. Obviously there is no collusion, so why on earth should this have even been considered veto worthy. The only way a trade should ever be vetoed is if there is suspected collusion. Clearly that isn't the case here.
[Reply]

I agree there was no collusion. I wasn't aware that was the standard for vetoing a trade in this league. It some leagues making such a lopsided trade without collusion can still be vetoed by a vote of the league members or commish. Like I said I'm 0-3 I don't care enough to fight over it.

The players I traded to him have put up 240 points so far this year. The players I got from him have put up 147.2.

This is not nearly as lopsided as some of you are making it out to be.
[Reply]

This.

Doomy... you know you got him in the trade.
And Best ISN'T by far the best player... he and Mathews are/will be virtually equals when it's all said and done.
[Reply]

Of course I like the trade for me, or else I wouldn't have made the deal. Just like you probably liked your pre-draft trade for yourself.

However, Matthews hasn't done anything yet. Of course I like his upside, but Best has clearly outperformed him so far in the year, and is much more explosive.
[Reply]

That pre-draft trade was pretty even.
Yours aint even in the same ball park.

BTW: I'm not for vetoing the trade just bustin your balls.
It takes 2 sides to make a deal.
[Reply]

It's funny you want to look at it that way, but no, it really wasn't.

That's why someone started a thread on the ESPN site saying you raped him on that. Of course, it probably was more even than people gave it credit for at the time. Much like this one.
[Reply]

Right and turf toe is a bitch to get over in season since you aggravate every week you play.
[Reply]

And so are high ankle sprains, which is what Matthews has. We are both taking a risk there.
[Reply]

Come on man. This was a lopsided trade no matter how you spin it. Just be happy you are on the better end of it.
