Lopsided trade, but not collusion.


Bingo. Problem is, people don't understand the difference.

ESPN introduced this option to allow leagues to decide whether a trade is fair to both parties and to prevent collusion.



It doesn't even make sense for Team A. They will be left with 1 "startable" RB in Marshawn Lynch, who is injured right now!

The only reason I may say not to veto would be because it looks like an 8 or 10 team league and everyone has All-Stars.

But if it is less than a 14 team league, Starks shouldn't be rostered.

Only veto if it creates incomplete or illegal roster. Otherwise but the frick out.

with the years Charles, CJ2K, and Britt are coming off of last year, there is no way you can veto this.


theres a lot of uncertainty to that side


you'd be a bad commish if you vetoed that

You don't decide who other teams roster or who they trade for. Sorry pal.

If you play with idiots who make stupid trades you dont like them don't play with them

Bc we disagree on what constitutes a reasonable veto?

Has anyone ever had someone in their league guilty of collusion?

It seems like it would be the easiest thing in the world to do and the hardest thing to prove
