noonan I don't know why someone that is already eliminated from the playoffs would even do a trade.
In a keeper league I do but in this situation, no. Regardless of whether or not y'all should have vetoed, this is a bush league move.

the trade went through tues-wed night, after checking Monday night I usually don't mess with it until Thursday morning so that's why it was missed. Had they done it Wednesday it would have been vetoed in a heart beat
Do y'all play with waiver wire?

Team A: Dude, you are out of the playoffs, what about giving me Rice and Smith and any playoff money I get I will give you some. Team B: Sure, I'm already out of the playoffs. I don't care.

When I rework the rules in the spring on my NFL league, I'm gonna see if there's a way I can prevent playoff-ineligible teams from trading. Only fair way to eliminate collaboration.

Yeah, holy shite man, I just looked at the difference in scoring btw all these guys in my league. I'd probably reverse this trade in my league.

One of the things we did in my league to prevent non-playoff teams from doing this or dropping their teams was to offer a small dollar amount to the the team who scored the most points each week.

If I had to guess, this is how it went down: Team B: Any chance I can attempt to get Ray Rice or Willis McGahee from you? I need a win and a RB badly this week. Take a look and let me know what you think. Team A: K. Team A: Hey just propose a trade and I'll look at it. My teams sucks Team B: Ok, I'll look Team B: Sent proposal. Both evaluations are fairly even Team A: Accepted Just how I see something like this going down

This means nothing. You can easily reverse this shite. If not I'm gonna start searching out deals w/ bottom feeders to see what I can slip thru.
