re: Reasons to veto a trade (All discussion here)

I'm just fricking around. That's not what I meant by my question.
When you have to question whether it's collusion or not, you don't really know. But the deal is highly lopsided. There are non collusive trades that ruin the integrity of the league. This is a fact.
It doesn't happen much in my leagues but I feel sorry for some of the people that post here. Then you have irrational people like the OP that thinks he knows if every trade is collusion or not. He's prob the same guy that wants to rip everyone off.

The collusion people tell me how you'd handle this
A few years ago when Tebow was playing well, we had a 1-8 team trade Adrian Peterson for him. Basically he didn't give a shite and was just trying to shake up his team. There were 2 other players involved that were insignificant.
The team getting Peterson was in 1st or 2nd.
The guy that got Tebow already had brees, and his next best RBs once he gave up Peterson were terrible.
It wasn't collusion but because he didn't give a shite, nor did the trade not help him, we vetoed it.

well sure, terrible owners can do that. But I won't veto those type of deals, they'll just be booted from the league the next year

This. I think most people have played in a league at some point in time in their career that included a Taco or two. It happens. Someone who doesn't know what they're doing, or values players like shite, or doesn't give a shite, etc. No reason to let the league go to shite and allow the trade raper to get a stud for free just because it wasn't textbook collusion. Everyone's got money on the line, F that noise. If it's at least arguable that it's fair, then OK.
