P.S. Josh you are not forgiven.

No one can see into the future and will only rate trades based off of ADP and name not team needs screwing over the owners looking to potentially better their team. Unless there is obvious collusion trades shouldn’t be vetoed.

What’s the point of trying to buy low and sell high if other owners will just veto a trade because they personally wouldn’t make the trade and they feel one team isn’t getting the better end of the deal. I’ll use Arian Foster from last year where his ADP had him somewhere in the 20′s for running backs taken and MJD who was probably a consensus top 5 pick. If you were to try and trade MJD for Foster at the beginning of the season as you liked his potential it probably would have got shot down by other owners due to his ADP and name alone potentially costing the potential Foster owner his season. You can even switch MJD for CJ2k, both of those guys had good seasons and drafted high definitely not as great as Foster.

And as I have stated multiple times. It was wrong what I did. I have taken responsibility for my actions and admitted that it was a scumbag move. Please make sure you complete you research before attacking someone integrity in the future. But again, take a look from my perspective where myself and another manager wanted to make a trade that we were both interested in yet the league revoked it to keep themselves safe from defeat.

Also, what Adam did not tell people in this article is that after that trade was made, he then continued to trade his entire team to his step-brother and another manager to create one super-team that still did not finish in the top three in the league, how’s that for integrity?

And also, I’m sorry that I had to modify your comment with the expletive, but I do not like to have profanity to that extent on the site.

Thanks for the thoughts though.

Josh you changed the rules without asking your league to vote on it and you immediately were benefited from the rule change. You also stated that you didnt think a league vote was necesarry. Well who the [expletive] cares what you think? You dont get to decide that, thats why theres a league vote. What you did was see a way to abuse your power and get what you want with complete disregard for the rules and of your fellow managers.

Here are a few of the definitons of cheating from the dictionary. “to violate rules or regulations” “to elude; deprive of something expected”
I would say you deprived them of a vote that they expected
and that you violated rules and regulations for your own advantage.

So enough said you cheated, and the fact that with all of this evidence being stacked up in front of you you wont admit you cheated just speaks to the kind of person you are. I’m glad i’ll never have to meet such a sorry excuse for a human being.

As opposed to the trade I made last season which wasn’t a dump it was also before week 2 of the season and everyone tried to veto it to protect themselves from losing to me, big difference. I’ll still fight that tooth and nail Adam.

John, I’m sure the guys in your league making that trade are trying to build one dominant team by dumping players to the stronger team. Look for them to try to make more trades this week after the games.
