For allowing a guy (0-10) to trade Peyton Manning for Miles Austin straight up this week. Since trade vetoes are by league and you basically need 7 of 10 guys not involved to vote against, it never happened.

When you say, "My" league, is it just the league you are playing in, or are you the commish? If you are the commish then the DB should go to you

League I am in.

The league I run has the same rules because people bitched when I vetoed a trade by an 0-8 to the first place about five years ago.

That's nothing. In our league a guy traded Taj Gibson for Paul Milsap AND Danny Granger. Surprised the commish let that one go through. We even had the needed veto votes and it STILL went through. Weird.



Thanks for the reminder. Turning off my email alerts 'cause of you chatty motherfucks...

Thanks for the support on the veto, and thanks for answering my trade requests.

Oh wait...

I take time to consider all trade requests. I also do not veto "questionable" trades. Has to be clearly a player dump for me to get involved.

You didn't even have 6 votes let alone the 7 needed to kill the trade. I'm sure you can read. Not liking it and voting to veto are clearly 2 different things. I know it sucks that you put in all that effort to kill the deal and failed. Better luck next time.

So Thelma and Louise lobbied the entire league to veto the deal and could only find 3 people to agree with them. :lol: :lol: It's a long season and I have a long memory too.

It was extremely poor form Nas. Big Ern was the 7th veto, and then 3 hours later, the trade was approved. :shock:

6 others voiced their displeasure with the deal. I don't know why you keep focusing on what I said about it.

But being commish should bring a greater awareness of responsibility on your part, yet it never does. You clearly run roughshod over the leagues you run.


If you're keeping score you should be able to count. There were 5 votes to veto. When you tried to count Hippies vote he took it back. Bagels had 2 1/2 days to vote to veto the deal and he DIDN'T. I'm not up at 3am on a weekday. The trade AUTOMATICALLY went through.

I focused on you because you were the ONLY ONE openly lobbying to veto the deal. Now that you weren't successful in getting it done you're still whining about it.

I am fully aware of my responsibility as a commissioner. I NEVER break any of the rules or tailor things to benefit me. Everything is up for vote. You may recall I use to pay $120 out of my own pocket for these leagues. I don't get enjoyment out of winning if I have to cheat. Therefore just because you say something doesn't make it true. I get tired of the constant griping about virtually nothing. Most of the complaints come from people not reading. As I've said many before if any of you feel you can run any of my leagues better than I do you are welcome to take the reins.

Did the Chief raise his hand? If he did, I say you have the votes. Don't back down.
