In all fairness to BCD my brother was the one who proposed the Colston & Bradshaw for Marshall & Portis. My bro really wanted Marshall. Portis was just meant to be a filler really. Nothing special. If he comes back healthy at some point this season great. If not no biggie as far as my bro is concerned. He wanted Marshall badly at this point and to his credit he went out and got him. Did he give up entirely too much as it seems? Sure he did but that was a risk he was willing to take. Also for the record yes there was some slight speculation that portis might be out for the rest of the season but I saw it earlier today on sportscenter surgery isn't needed for his injury. Which I take it is a good sign and might hint at him being back in about 6 weeks.

I in no way "put one over on anyone" in this deal. It was a deal we both liked and as people who posted in the thread BCD started in Casino Planet about it, I probably got the better end, but it wasn't lopsided. He wanted Best. You have to pay for a guy like Best. We both liked the deal when it was made, and it wasn't until he read the comments from people like BCD on this board that he changed his tune.
It isn't a "real asshole move" to make a deal to make your team stronger in a fantasy football league. It's not like I traded the guy a RB who is out for at least 6 weeks.

You all are too funny just bitching back and forth to eachother about who screwed over who and who got the better deal. On paper sure maybe one of you did come out on top, but that's why they play games. To settle it all out on the field not on paper. Unfortunately paper doesn't always hold up. If it did my record would probably be better than it is at this juncture. Having said this you both agreed to the trade, so it's a moot point really. Move along now nothing to see here.

Oh trust me my bro knew. I informed him of such matters before he even officially proposed the trade so he knew what he was getting himself into. I tried to warn him that in my honest opinion he was giving up entirey too much. I even suggested he maybe throw in a different back instead of Bradshaw. For some reason he thought the only BCD was going to accept is if he made it more than enticing for him I suppose. Not much he can do now except wish for the best and see if it all pans out like he had hoped.
