how are you going to prove collusion ever?
In all the years that I have played fantasy football I have only ever seen one trade that was vetoable. The two people were boyfriend and girlfriend, the boyfriend had rejected better trades for the same player, and the boyfriend had been caught using the girlfriend's account earlier. There was very good reason to believe collusion.
Otherwise in order for a trade to be vetoable, it needs to be grossly uneven. It shouldn't be open to interpretation of other opinions or because you can't understand their strategy.

so in this situation, when is this trade grossly uneven? because at some point during this season, this exact trade is vetoable. at what point did it become passable?

What if players Veto every trade because the trade doesn't help his/her team??
Is that strategy? or just crap?

ETA: If you want to do a week by week analysis of a Gordon for Julio trade, knock yourself out. But it's completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

Vetoing a trade for any other reason besides strong suspicion of collusion or maybe a horribly unfair trade (e.g. Antonio Brown for Brian Hartline) is an abuse of the veto function and an ethically questionable perversion of the intention of the rule.

It's crap, and I would refuse to play in a league that included people like that.

Well, you guys have definitely made me feel better about myself losing my schatt last night over something as stupid as fantasy football.

You sound like a major pussy who thinks they know more than anyone else about FF. News flash- you don't.
Quit thinking it's legit to veto a trade because you deem it unfair. Maybe you are the one who doesn't know shite
Eta: off my trade pedestal- those guys paid their money just like you. If they like the trade and it's not obvious collusion, let it go

It's ashame because that trade really helps BOTH teams. I consider it a fair trade considering their rankings in the league
