Would you continue to play in a league (1 Viewer)

[CrossEyed]

There are 2 trades pending. The total player movement is as follows:

Team A (commissioner, 6-0)

Gives - MNugent, BLloyd, APeterson

Gets - DClark, MTurner, AGates

Team B (1-5)

Gives - MTurner, AGates

Gets - MNugent

Team C (2-4)

Gives - DClark

Gets - BLloyd, APeterson

Has me questioning the integrity of both the commish and the league. What would your reaction be if this happened in your league?

 

[Easy Six]

I'm sorry, am I reading this right? Gives up Turner and Gates and gets a kicker?

For discussions sake, can you post the mechanics of the trades' results you've posted above?Seems trully illogical though from B's side.

Collusion. And that would be my last year in a league in which any of those 3 owners participate. Serves the commish right that Clark is out for the year.

this makes perfect sense as long as team b has CJ, McCoy, Bradshaw, Miller (either one) and really, really needs a good PK. or maybe it makes no sense at all. there must be more to it that this.

 

[bostonfred]

Everyone's focusing on team B doing this for a kicker, but how is team C getting Peterson and Lloyd for Dallas Clark?

Yeah, I would be so gone from that league.

Is this all part of one trade? So in the end A gives up Nugent, Lloyd and Adrian Peterson for Michael Turner and Gates. Seems ok to me.But what about team C, just just gets Llody and Peterson for an injured Clark? Is it a Dynasty league?

....for Team A. How does it look for the rest of them?

 

[bleedgreen]

I wouldn't even bother finishing the season.

Ditch these guys and try to get a decent league together for next season.

 

[scrumptrulescent]

I'd stay in it if I was winning $$$.

 

[CrossEyed]

It's a redraft league. PPR, fairly standard scoring.

 

[CrossEyed]

I'd stay in it if I was winning $$$.

No money involved. I'm the top scoring team but sitting at 3-3 thanks to some bad timing.

 

[John 14:6]

Do these guys know each other? Could the team B owner just not be that bright?

No money? I'd be done.

 

[PolishNorbi]

Is there a third part to trade?

B <-> C

Seems like a three way trade that hasn't been completed.

With no money on the line I might be tempted to stay just to try to beat these guys, but in reality I'd probably just walk away. Not worth playing in a league where the players aren't actually trying to win in a legitimate way.

 

[jmack0311]

Collusion, or whatever you want to call it here. Absolutely horrible.

 

[TommyGilmore]

Is this a church league?

 

[CaptainHook]

no money lol. who cares.

 

[boneman18]

Silly collusion... some losers have no integrity.

If it was for money, heads would roll. My league does not have this problem.

Surely the other owners don't appreciate this, and I'd be equally mad at that giver and receiver.

My advice, don't leave the league, rather kick out the cheaters. Even if the commish is involved, it's not his league, build a consensus with the other owners and take over the league, by starting your own. They are the ones who need to be taught a lesson, and they will be easy to replace.

 

[Dizzy]

Except for that 15pts per FG rule!

this is collusion. laughably so. You know these guys? Public league? Money league?

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

no money league with this going on? Is this how you spend your time?

 

[abe froman]

I wouldnt continue to play in this league after the draft..our rips/rants tend to be R-Rated at times and a church league would tough, also no money.. snooze. I say take a whizz in the communion wine and roll out. Join a dynasty league as Im sure commish's are looking already to boot some teams.. get an early start to 2011-

It's a league with friends/acquaintances that is supposed to just be fun. Obviously stuff like this hasn't happened in the past or I wouldn't be so surprised about this.

 

[supersportniner]

No Money league I would drop your whole team and call a free for all to prove a pissed off point!!!

 

[supersportniner]

If it was a money league I would be at the commish's doorstep

 

[pantagrapher]

Put in your . If they don't come clean, walk away.

 

[Crusaderfan]

no money lol. who cares.

What he said. BUT I would contact the team just below the commisioners team and trade him my good players for his kicker. Then I would logoff and never go back. I have never vetoed a trade in fantasy in over 10 yrs but that is just flat-out cheating.

You read it correctly.

Of course he did. Mike Nugent is the MAN!

 

[LittlePhatty]

No money involved?

I'd offer Team C all of my best players in exchange for his kicker.

Then once he accepts, I'd never log on to the league website again this year.

Just to add a little more context to these trades, in our scoring system Gates is the #1 TE by a wide margin (95 pts), Turner is the #21 RB (63 pts) Nugent is the #11 K (49 pts), with less points than Team B's other kicker, Robbie Gould (51 pts).

 

[Agent575]

I would send an offer to the cheating commish and offer all of your good players for his worst. Winning that league will feel SOOOOO good to him.

oh, and after sending the offer...log out and never return

free leagues are dumb

 

[SWC]

Maybe they need a lesson... I think you are churchgoing man, so maybe you could take out an add in the bulletin and tell people what they did. Sometimes having everyone's eyes see your sins is the best cure.

 

[CrossEyed]

Interestingly enough the commish (Team A) just vetoed both deals.

 

[PolishNorbi]

Is there a third part to trade?B <-> CSeems like a three way trade that hasn't been completed.

I still think this is the case. Maybe C or B didn't fulfill their trade and thats why it was vetoed.

 

[DropKick]

Interestingly enough the commish (Team A) just vetoed both deals.

So the commish was on both ends of lopsided deals. What was he trying to prove? Or, what do you think he was trying to prove?

I have no idea. He had to have initiated or accepted both deals already or I wouldn't have seen them. Maybe someone else objected.

Or maybe he vetoed the deal because Dallas Clark the guy he got was just put on IR?

This is like playing poker on Pokerstars in the "play money" rooms. Then when someone goes all in with 7-2 you run to a forum and post about it.
