I don't like the new rule, if its a bad trade veto it, also do like alot of the leagues i get into have a vote on if it should go thru. With your new rule you will actually take away from alot of trading thus not much is done now but what team in contention is going to want to trade to help someone else in contention? But i have bitched about this league from day 1 with to many players drafted with this many teams.

A lot? Out of contention means there is NO possible way to get to the playoffs. Right now that means only 1 and 2 teams are out right now, so my suggestions, any trade you want to do with some other team, do it now. And if you think having teams help others teams by giving their good players seems "fair" to you, I'd love to know your other thoughts.

If it's obviously a bad trade all of us owners can veto it. At least that's how most fantasy leagues I've been in work. I was in fantasy baseball over the summer and this guy was trying to trade Pujols for Russel Branyan. Obviously this guy was just selling off his roster so we all vetoed it. Unfair or bad trades will get vetoed, the status of the teams should have nothing to do with it.

Exactly... because even if I had not made an announcement I would have vetoed a trade between a team in contention and a team not in contention. So I thought "Hell, might as well tell them unless they were planning something with a team out of contention..." Yet, people will find any way to get in a argument...lol.

Pretty damn lame that you operate like that and using PackersHome. That's shady and wrong.

What a crock of shit.

What the fuck is the problem with a trade between a team in contention and one not in contention? I don't follow that logic any more than I follow those dumb no-trade lists.

Because it's a concrete way to outlaw ridiculous 'friend' trades. I mean, what's in it for the team that isn't in contention?

And if anyone wanted an only Packers team, he could've started doing that about 8 weeks ago.

Yes, you can veto trades as well, but who will decide what an unfair trade is? Formo traded Andre Johnson away for Larry Johnson in the beginning of the season. I surely would've veto'd that, if I could, later on. In Formo's opinion, though, it was just a good trade for a RB-desperate team.

Why on earth would a team that's out of contention trade or release its entire roster, besides helping someone else to victory?
