Duzy, which deal? What's the concern. If you're going to speak up please do so.
-
BTW, In my time in this league, outrage has never been the norm when the first blockbuster of the season happens. This deal is causing the concern

Wtf you quit yet?
-
I will say the veto to Insufferable's deal makes no sense to me. WTF needs penalized for being an outright reactive baby clown if that was why you guys veto'd - if not, why? And poor MC? Like, shitty deal imo but he wanted his guys and was declined on some outrage. Now he's stuck with dealing with a bunch of haters and shit talkers lol.
-
Rotting for you bud. You’ll need it to topple the mighty Cosby sweaters
-
The people shall vote
-
As commish said he’ll cancel the bullshit jrod deal and we can all move on with our lives.
-
Congrats to all you crybabies. Still going to take home my third straight title and 4 of the last 5. Bunch of snowflakes can’t accept that some managers are better than others.
-
I mean, I've placed every year I've paid lmao. I'm in the running this year too with plenty of flexibility. I'm not the one causing a charity trade riot 2 weeks into the season, but please continue to fault me for accepting a trade we all would have. Definitely not your waivers for Trout and Scherzer nonsense ... or ability to discuss it without a ragequit attached.
-
That’s a hot take. I get your perspective though, the only chance you have in this league is getting gifted jrod, Betts and Xander.
-
Curious to see how either trade gets vetoed though if we aren't vetoing based on consensus value. Can't stop any owner from being a dumbass if that's their choice. I have years of receipts of WTF loathing me for my offers, no whiff of collusion. To top it off I 100% think WTFs return crushes MCs and it's not that close. 3 or 4 of his guys were very recent waivers and Manoah nearing droppable IMO. These opinions are why we all play though
-
You did nothing wrong MC, lol. Outrage is the norm when the first blockbuster breaks. Get your guys.

2) the league. I’ll refrain from putting players on the trading block or entertaining trades until a majority of teams in the league have made a trade or some other arbitrary date that feels right to everyone. Of course I’ll then only make trades that the average league member would think I won. Not expecting a lot of activity. See you in the draft next March.

1)I did have these players on the trade block and replied/countered to multiple offers prior to accepting this offer. I also don’t understand the logic of why I need to wait until later in the season when 1) the played I am trading have less value due to their expected salary for next year and the amount of time they can contribute to the other teams results and 2) the increased likelihood that an injury erases all of their value.
Having said that, if the league vetoes the trade, that’s u

4) As far as the second trade...I don’t think it would have happened had the first not occurred. I’ll void the second trade if the first is rejected. Everyone should vote, that is the process that is set up by the site.
-
3) I’m pretty sure if the roles were reversed neither MCB nor COS would like it either. As proven by the reactions to second trade. What is the magic date that a trade like this is ok? I don’t know, but it’s obviously not now. I think at this point the WHOLE league should have it’s say. Let’s see what the vote says. If it’s rejected, you guys can rework it. Maybe offering pieces to other teams and countering their offers.
-
2) MCB, while understanding your strategy, applying it in the second week of the season is in somewhat poor form. Essentially you are blowing up your team. A trade such as this would not occur in the MLB in April. Thus, pissing off most in the league and putting the whole league at risk.
-
1) The site won’t allow me to post this reply as one post. Hopefully it will be read in order. As far as the first trade is concerned...I waited till most of the emotion and any potential alcohol added thoughts had waned. My thoughts as commissioner...

⌨️🐒🤡
-
Came to check my lineups. Hey look, some trades!!! …and some paragraphs in the message board. Oh boy.
-
Maybe that’s a bad strategy, maybe I executed it poorly. But I paid the same entry fee as everyone else to try to have fun, do something interesting, maybe learn something. If everyone valued all players the same and used the same strategy there’s really no point to joining a league.

I drafted Trout for the express purpose of trading him at some point before or after the season for players that would be a better value next season, the earliest I thought I would reasonably be able to compete. I thought using my salary cap in this fashion would be more effective than directly drafting players. The offers I’ve received thus far for Trout were not as good, in my opinion, as this offer. Given Trout and Scherzers recent injury history I decided I could not risk waiting much longer

Curious why you would veto my deal with mc?
-
I vetoed them both
-
I typically have quietly gone about my business in this league. I must say, my initial reaction to the JRod, Betts, Bogaerts trade was "this can't be legitimate." I wanted to wait and think about it to make sure I wasn't reacting out of personal reasons. After giving it thought I still feel the trade is highly questionable. I have no problem losing legitimately but this is sketchy. I will honor whatever our whole league decides...

Also I appreciate the pass
-
Thanks for that generous. I appreciate the reality check. Like I said, I’ll leave if the trade isn’t canceled.
-
Hahaha come on Cosby, are you always this insufferable? It's just so rich: "I don't like the accusations". You were making the most serious accusations! (of collusion) Although I guess in your defense, your subsequent commentary made it clear you don't actually know what the word means, so maybe we should give you a pass? In any case, that's multiple threats to leave the league, and I don't think anyone has jumped up to hold you back, so please don't let us stand in your way.
-
I will quit if that jrod deal is not canceled. There is no world where I will accept that. Hope you guys have a good night.
-
For you and your equally egregious moves lmao
-
I’ll say this, I went back and forth with mc for a few hours on that deal. Like it or not, it was negotiated in good faith and frankly you guys all had ample time to make a deal for trout and/or max. I put a lot of time into the league, and while you all may hate me for one reason or another I’m playing by the rules and trying to build the best team I can. I do t like the accusations but I can sleep good at night. But that deal with jrod and betts is a joke and ruins a fun league.
-
May the odds be ever in your favor.
-
Both of those trades are a joke
-
You won’t, even if you keep your free jrod and betts.
-
Thank you Cosby, I look forward to beating you fairly.
-
WTF admittedly acting a pure clown as embarrassing to the integrity of the league as that MC trade lmao. Once again, agree with Generous
-
I give up, none of you are making any sense. Veto mine if you want but wtf should be withdrawn/canceled. Also il gotten not accusing you of anything, I would’ve taken that offer too.
-
I would argue that even without Jrod in the deal yours is still a joke compared to mine which should be vetoed btw
-
I'm just salty you assert collusion. I play the game fairly and accepted a deal. That's a below belt assertion IMO
-
Even if you gave up the same value, which is debatable, you got the most valuable asset in the league and I got rentals. Bunch of haters here
-
I stand with generous carriage, if anything I kind of like my givings more than MCs lol. Embarrassment all around, and I've been proudly rebuilding (successfully) for a few years here. All of our entries are equal.
-
You can check my trade history whenever you want. I’ve earned every chip. Maybe one day you’ll earn one too
-
Cry me a river
-
Yeah, funny I thought that since you’ve won the league a bunch of years you must be a good player. If I’d realized how you do it, I would have gone in with eyes wide open that my money would in fact be a donation.
-
Not your bud. Thanks for the donation to the league
-
Pretty sure my $100 counts the same as yours bud
-
Good for you? $21 wander was nothing special then and singer isn’t the second coming of Nolan Ryan.
-
Also with respect youve been here less than a year, I’m not sure what you’re even getting upset about
-
Actually I offered Wander and Singer for Trout and Correa on March 1. Thanks for asking.
-
What did you offer for Trout and Max? Been on the block for weeks. Every offer I’ve made on jrod has gotten me insulted. Am I high??
