I'll never veto a trade unless there is obvious collusion. That's obviously not the case here.

Are these guys friends of yours?
If not, they're probably a bunch of D-bags. Screw 'em. Beat 'em at their own game. |

To be honest, I'm not thrilled with getting LJ. But Holmes is the one I wanted and to get him I had to give Forte. I even think Forte will end up better than LJ. There have been 4 vetoes so far. 1 more and it's done.

the only way this deal would make half way sense is if this is a keepers league

The only reason to veto a trade is collusion. That's why I hate leagues where there's a league vote.

I don't understand why this is such a lopsided deal. You saw LJ last week. You saw him last year. He's not the great back he was.

IMO you never trade 2 decent veteran players for 2 rookies. I just think when Marshall comes back that Royal wont have the success that he had last week. At best he is a 3rd wr option and Holmes is a number 2 option. Now LJ for Forte at this point is pretty even

He wanted Forte bad over LJ. I'd rather Forte over LJ too, I just needed Holmes since I lost Colston.

You'd have to be a dipshit not to veto that trade. You get the better player at each position.

The trade ended up going through because only 4 vetos came in. However, now I wish I didn't do it.Besides one run, LJ looked horrid last week. I think Forte will continue to perform well which would mean I could have gotten someone better later on.
