I can get down with that. Some people say that collusion only occurs when there is an agreement to split earnings. But I kinda like the way "The League" framed collusion, even though sometimes I didn't 100% agree with it.
Defining collusion can be very tough at times iyam.
Thanks man, stay classy.Lone star... you could have typed a single letter "a"... and I would have thought that too much to read from your constant stream of drivel.
Cut the crap. Stop posting and just ####. For the benefit of everyone here, OK?
Nah, definitely not a competitor. Would be cool to be the webmaster of a forum though.Maybe he could have his own subforum?
I don't maybe he's a competitor of fbgs, pretty good idea if he is.
If you stop first then I might.He was being sarcastic. Stop posting.
It's fair to question things though tbh. Especially if you aren't 100% sure what the correct answer and/or majority view is.It sounds like you have a lot of problems with your league.
My guess is the feeling is mutual.
Collision is not tough to define. It is tough to prove. Collusion is any time multiple teams agree to make one team superior at the expense of other teams. Essentially trying to make one team out of two.I can get down with that. Some people say that collusion only occurs when there is an agreement to split earnings.

I like that definition, but sometimes people say it's anytime teams make an agreement that involves exchanging money under the table. Other times people say its when teams make an agreement to collectively get around the rules, when one person himself cannot do so.Collision is not tough to define. It is tough to prove.

All of those are correct when it leads to one team getting better at the purposeful expense of other teams. For example, when a team offers to share part of the winnings (money) if Team A trades player X to Team B for essentially nothing. This is where Team A is not trying to compete and is purposefully helping Team B get better without also trying to improve Team A.I like that definition, but sometimes people say it's anytime teams make an agreement that involves exchanging money under the table.

I've heard A LOT of definitions, that's why I say it's hard to define. But I guess what I really mean is that it is hard to nail it down to something where everyone agrees.
And yes, I do agree, it is hard to prove.

Anytime one team is improving while another team is purposefully not getting better it is collusion. It can take many forms as you have outlined but the definition remains the same.
How did this even go through? Also league seems super toxicTeam A traded rookie Todd Gurley to the commish for Reuben Randle
No vetos or trade committees in that league, so basically any deal went through.BLOCKED_PUNT said:How did this even go through? Also league seems super toxic
Also, in regards to this, isn't it still his team until the season ends? He did pay dues after all, and no replacement owner had been found or announced just yet.I'll go with the minority and say YES. As soon as a team announces their intent to leave a dynasty league, all trading involving that team should cease.
Thanks for being so kind. Just to clarify, I'm not asking for it to be changed, let's not misconstrue the point. I am just asking if the deal should have been nixed or not.I said this a day or so ago. Lone Star needs to get a life and a new league. Something that happened 3 years ago is not going to be changed.
