Says who?

I never had an issue with you making a trade that helps your team. That is literally what trades are for. At issue is that the trade clearly and irrefutably damaged the other team, to the point of being illogical.

There is literally no argument you nor Matt can make that Winning With Dolphins was/is/or will be better off without MJD and with Ricky Williams and Jeremy Maclin.

In the current trade, you have:

a) BOTH parties stepping forward and saying they wanted to make the trade. So far, we’ve only heard YOU say that Matt wanted to make the trade. Matt has also been a non-presence in the league and the majority of the league believes it’s simply a shell team you created to help yourself. We have no proof to the contrary.

b) Statistical PROOF that the trade at worst, does not hurt either team and at best may make BOTH teams better. This is impossible with MJD for Maclin and Williams, unless MJD gets hurt.

c) Neither of us had to resort to childish name calling or touting our commissioner’s powers to support the trade.

But hey, keep colluding with other teams, one of them might bite. If not, you always have your shell team to pull players from.

But, you do make your point Adam

Brees – 129 points
Peterson – 127 points
Clayton – 41 points
Bryant – 34 points
Avery – 35 points

Total: 366 points

Flacco – 109 points
Benson – 108 points
Clayton – 41 points
Mason – 56 points
Wallace – 52 points

Total: 366 points

So yes, your trade which ended up with the other team getting less points is exactly like this trade which ended up with both teams getting the same amount of points. Now I see Josh and Matt made a trade that only helped your team, me and Eddie made a trade we both wanted to make that benefited both our clubs. Yes, that is exactly the same scenario.

Plus your trade did not and still has not benefited Winning with Dolphins.

Current “best” lineup:

Brandon Marshall – 56 points
Lee Evans – 48 points
Steve Smith – 38 points

Ricky Williams – 90 points
Clinton Portis – 64 points

Total: 296 points

If the trade never happened:

Brandon Marshall – 56 points
Lee Evans – 48 points
Steve Smith – 38 points

Maurice Jones Drew – 108 points
Clinton Portis – 64 points

Total: 314 points

Whereas if you look at the “best” lineups Eddie and I can throw out, it’s either even, or if you take into account the players who already had bye weeks, he comes out on top.

If anything, I made out in the end with this trade because I get more fantasy points overall by getting rid of Avery, who’s having an off year because the Rams are so bad, and getting Wallace and Mason in return who put up decent points.
