I can't see it anywhere. It's a shame, I remember 'Throat-Punching' some team last year.

I just vetoed the following trade in another league:

Willie snead and spencer ware
For
Jordy nelson


And then i got bollocked for vetoing it...the bloke that was to receive ware and snead argued that snead and ware had good week 1 and nelson didnt

Why do people want rid of Snead and are? I got basicly the same trade for David Johnson, then they offered those 2 and melvin gordon for him

How can you veto a trade?

Surely if they want to trade then thats that isn't it?

Because you have to trade players when they are at their peak as you will fool people into thinking they are better than they are.

Ware won't continue the way he is and Snead is Snead.

Phoenix how did that work? Was the trade accepted and both parties happy with it?

And did you veto as commissioner or can everyone vote?

NFL website is so not user friendly like Yahoo is. Jeesh. Took me a while to find out how to view my trades.

Valentine Sackos, I got a counter offer on the table for ya. It's fairer than what you offered me!

Looks like the end for Brandon Marshall, went for his knee immediately, looked ugly.

posted on 16/9/16

Ouchhhhhhhhy, amazingly he has walked off the field but his knee was at 90% sideways to his leg

posted on 16/9/16

Good lord he's back in the game. That's up there with Thomas Vermaelen recovering from a broken leg overnight

Just dreaming of what it must be like to have Eric '80 yards or a TD' Decker though. I miss that man so much.

May have picked the wrong week to release Fitz with 14.44 fantasy points before the half

Freedom that's as fair as a good old fashioned kick to the nards.

Let me see if there's any way to salvage it with a counter.

================

Basically, theres a large league like thing set up with 6 leagues in it, all belong under the GGX brand (a greek website for nfl).
What happens is the higher the league the more experienced the players (im in GGX1 after winning GGX2 last year).
The winner from each league has his score in the fantasy superbowl compared to the other leagues and a Grand Champion is decided, again, which was me last year with 142.12 points in the final week (thank you Tim Hightower and your 30 points).

Anyway, last year we had 3 leagues, this year we have 6. Im commish in GGX5 which is made up largely of relative newbs, and as such, things like these happen. Meanwhile the same guy that was trading away Jordy Nelson dropped him into free agency earlier in the week because he "had bad games in the friendlies".

Yes he is clueless, so to preserve some integrity, I took the step and changed trade process to league manager for this one and vetoed it. Ive let other trades go through (some relatively bad ones but made sense with a risk/reward sense)... this made none.

I think now that you have a better overall idea of the set-up you will agree with me.

I agree with the trade bring insane but surely it's not your place to make a judgement on it if both parties agreed and there's no sign of collusion, only stupidity?

posted on 16/9/16

Although i agree with you, i also have a 'duty' as league commish to maintain some sort of integrity within the league.
I may be unpopular within the league, but i believe (along with the other 5 commish from the other leagues-admins of the website) that in the lower leagues (ggx4-5-6) where its largely run by newbies that we will have to act as judge and jury on some trade deals and create our own undroppable list (remember...same guy tried dropping nelson cause of a bad week 1). This will apply until the completion of week 4, hoping that some people will kind of figure out how it works.

Keep in mind, the potential winner of ggx6 has the chance of winning the whole thing, including roughly 300euros worth of items (game pass subscription and a teams jersey) when his superbowl score goes up vs ggx1-2-3.
For this reason we cant have someone traderaping his way to an unstoppable team

I say largely run by newbies...i mean its largely inhabited by newbies
