soon to be 6-6
I still cannot believe PG is 6-1. Has anyone actually looked at her team? It is embarrasing. If I saw that team starting the year, I'd have thought she wouldn't win one single game.
I have to hand it to you though PG, it can't be all luck, so you must be doing some good moves or something because that team is way too bad to win just on luck.
As for MURP, I have made 3 trades and am willing to do another but after looking at your team and my team, I just don't see how it will work to both of our benefits.
Also, my last trade was supposed to have a 2 day waiting period, and was finished in less than one day. How did that happen? I came into work, and later today I thought maybe it wasn't a good idea and was still thinking it over and poof the first time I look, it was already done. ???
QuoteIf the offer is accepted, the entire league will be notified and coaches/commissioners can review the deal. In a Custom League, the commissioner has veto power for the length of time chosen during configuration.
NB, the 2 day period is so the commish can review the trade... its not supposed to be used as time for a coach who already accepted the trade to reject it.
As commish, I have to assume that any trade that was already accepted by both coaches will be processed by myself whenever i get to it.

That's not the team I started with. Injuries and poor performers killed me. I had to make a boatload of moves so far.

Ok, I'll live with it.
Just to address a couple things though:
So there isn't a period for other players in the league to veto a trade I assume. In other leagues there is always a way for other teams to vote on and veto if they don't like it so a couple teams can't screw over the rest of the league, but considering this is a private league I guess you get all that power. ;) And yes i trust you to be fair, I am in NO way implying anything else.
And to address your comment about the 2 day period being for you and not for someone to rethink their trade, again in other leagues before this one, I have on a few occasions accepted/offered a trade and canceled it before the trade goes through. Often times in my busy schedule I will offer or accept a trade without fully thinking it through, looking at the remaining schedule, fully knowing injuries, etc.
In fact in other league rules, it says that you once a trade has been accepted by other player, then you have 2 days to take back/cancel that trade. The usual rules are exactly for that reason.
So it may not make sense to you that someone would accept/offer a trade and then decide they don't want to go through with it, but it happens.
I didn't know the full rules, obviously neither do others seeing their comments on how they didn't get to vote against a trade. So that was the only reason I brought this forth, to understand/establish the rules.
As I said I will fully accept it, and move on. This was not meant to be a complaint or a rant, just communicating. I actually benefited from this due to me getting Ricky Williams, so I don't mean to make it an issue. Thanks MURP.

You mean such as Faulk going out injured :boom I'm just giving you a hard time PG, that's all. I look at my team, and teams such as Philly Crew, and then I look at yours and I cringe when I see our teams 3-4 and yours in first place. But you must be doing something right. Not truelly meaning to take credit away from you, just giving you a hard time out of frustration mainly. ;)
There is no vetoing in this private league by anyone other than the commish. In a public league there is a veto period where coaches can vote to reject a trade if its ridiculous. This is because there have been many accounts of a person signing up for 2 teams in one league and then trading all the great players to one team so they can win.
If a trade comes through that is ridiculous (ie Trading Portis for Jeff Blake) then i would veto it. Otherwise the trades go through.
If i get an email that a trade is accepted by both coaches and its a legit deal than i go ahead and process it. Ive already had people IM me to hurry up and put the trade through so they can reorder their rosters.
For future notice, i dont think its wise to accept a trade if you think there is a chance you may not want it to go through. Or if you do happen to do that you had better try to inform me not to process the trade until you really make up your mind.
Infact this is the first time in 2 years someone has made a trade and then wanted to take it back. of course it had to be you didnt it NB. ;)

Take a look at the Muffed Punts. I go into a 16 team league with Brooks, Bulger, Travis Henry, Terrell Owens, and Plaxico Burress, along with supposed breakout sleepers Barlow and Onterrio ... and I have 1 win?! WTF?! I even tied a game I should have won by not activating my defense. And a girl is winning .....

NB-- so much for your tirade the other day about the veto period, auto e-mails, etc, huh?
its all in the yahoo rules which i've encouraged everyone to read before the start of each season.

Sure. But at least all of the quality thinking he did that slowed up the draft has paid off with a solid 12th place for him so far. Well worth the wait. ;D
lol...no, you were telling us to shut up because there was an established veto and waiting process that we all somehow missed, remember?
there was no voting period last year.
And I said I wished there was one...because I knew there wasn't.

Never said there was.

I thought there was one, everyone thought there was one because it is always that way.
but its not always that way. ;D
and honestly, why do you think there should be a voting period for the league anyway? Has there been a trade where a team was obviously and intentionally trying to assist the team they traded to? That is the purpose of a trade veto vote. To keep a team from assisting another team with a ridiculous trade. Its not there to stop people from making legit trades just because other people dont want the trade to happen.
I am one loss away from losing all hope. I am no quitter, and will do my best to make this season meaningful, even as a spoiler, but I am open to trade talks. I am willing to entertain any and all offers involving 2 tickets to a home game, or one case of Coors Light or Yeungling (bottles only), or any combination of the aforementioned.
