This trade was offered and accepted: Giovani Bernard for Dennis Pitta.

This league does not require TE's.

Would you have accepted this trade if you had Bernard?

If you were in the league would you have vetoed it?

I wouldn't have accepted it. Whether or not I would veto it depends on other factors. Do you have reason to suspect collusion? It seems pretty lopsided to me.

The guy that was giving up Pitta is all upset that we vetoed the trade. He somehow thinks that it was fair trade.

He sent me a bunch of texts saying he was quitting, and that we were all a bunch of haters.

Excellent question. Collusion no. Manipulation yes.

Last year I offered a trade with his brother. I was loaded at receiver (ppr league) and wanted to shore up my rb's. I offer a very reasonable trade. His brother then asks him if he should accept my trade. To which he told him to just be mindful of me because Im a player. (flattering)

Very lopsided, but I'm not sure I would veto.

Sounds like the Gio owner is either dumb or inexperienced and just looked at what they did in week 1. Stupidity is not a good reason for veto.

No, but someone manipulating you to get a player like that is.

Work league. Bragging rights. The funny thing is. There are two girls in the league, and Both of them knew it was a horrible trade.

Just because we don't play for money doesn't mean we don't care.

Backstory: Guy with Bernard is casual at best. Guy with Pitta tells him he needs a TE. Again TE's not required. He also tried to trade with one of the girls, asking her for Leveon Bell. Telling her he is no good and she needs to drop him. She laughed at him and denied the trade.

I probably wouldn't have vetoed the trade. I would have tried to warn the guy being raped.

By the time I found out about the trade it was already done. We are not all ate the same work location. Just same company. I don't work at the same location as those two....so its kinda hard to warn about something like that.

Still not seeing the problem. If the guy doesn't know the rules, that's his own fault.
