Gyno, what are your thoughts or suggestions?



Reversing trades is tricky, I get it. Of course Id like all the guys back that were dealt. The only reason I offered thom was that i was under the impression that the Tatum for Prince deal just went down. From a competitive standpoint, Thom is fine sitting in 3rd with Prince/Robinson. It's not like he's all of sudden fricked. This team on the other hand has no assets at all. You are looking at a literal 4-5 year rebuild through draft picks. There is no value to trade off. My biggest advantage in my eyes was adding FAs. Now this daily FAAB gives everyone the chance to sit back and look into who to add. So that advantage is out the window

I havent had a chance to look over teams but I imagine a lotto cannot be worse than the guys on this team. If I can uncover a few gems through that and FAAB, along with having a top dynasty asset like Tatum, we could be cooking sooner than later

Jumpys team over there is on similar pace as over here. It's a shell of what it was to start the season.

He wrecked his original TDBBL team in the same manner he did this one (though it was already fricked) - just chasing 1/1000 hope/chance some no-name breaks out.

as I've said, I'll be more than happy to take over the (departed) team ... I just want JJJ

ETA: Scratch the more than happy part, but i will take over the team if it means adding a good owner and keeping the league together.

If you did that with this team I would believe you made some type of fantasy sports, Robert Johnson deal at the crossroads.

I am open to go back to regular adds/drops. ESPN won't allow you to change it until after the season but I agree with what you are saying.

I am going to send you my 2nd round pick from Papps which should be a high pick. I made 3 trades with McCain, 2 I think were solid but the Reddick for Allen trade is one that I accepted from him that he offered, and I don't think it's fair looking back. The trade is so old and I have structured my team with Reddick factored in (thin at sg) but I think it's fair value. I will update the board. You have all of your picks, my 2nd and Papps' 2nd.

Tommy's trade is less than a week old and the entire league bitched when it went through. I didn't because I assumed McCain was staying, but for a new owner it's a bad deal. I will let the rest of the league chime in on that one.

i will put in some work here. even the lotto is a crapshoot so a bad finish isnt guaranteed anything, a top pick can change things as you and i both know

I think you'll like the daily FAAB. Cuts back on streaming. The deep deep guys are not churned. I've lost on a few guys after a big night by just not bidding enough.

FA pool isn't what it used to be after roster expansions

I'm not saying I wouldn't be upset if I was in Thom's shoes, but if 12 owners minus Gyne and Thom who are involved in the deal think it's bad for the league I think we should consider reversing it.

I'm just spitballing ideas to make that trade less of an issue in this league. What if Thom gave his first to GYNO as part of that deal? Would that make it more tolerable?

It's worked. No one is streaming to get to 45 games and people can roster injured dudes without any penalty

It's less than a week old. If it were me, I would agree to reversing it. I just gave up the 15th or 16th pick in the draft even though that trade happened a month ago.

Well Tom also doesn’t believe that RMCC should have been kicked out. So that’s his stance and his right of opinion.

I’m thinking the protective draft is going to be the way to go.
