A guy in the playoff hunt is giving up Duncan and Damien Wilkins for Amare and Melo. Thats BS! Gotta be vetoed right? The guy giving up STAT and Melo is out of the playoffs and rarely sets his roster.

I figured I might as well ask. Now it's time for me to lobby the others in the league on the veto as well.

Damien Wilkins is waver wire trash, so it's basically:
Duncan for Amare and Melo.
You figure out the rest.

What really staggers me is that even after reading the thread I still took the time to vote. Yikes.

In a dynasty league I'm in, people are veto-ing my Yao+Ronnie Brewer for Marion trade. If that's veto-able (utter crap, it's not obviously), this one definitely is.

Well, unfortunately I am dealing with a shady Commissioner. The guy who would be receiving Amare and Melo is the Commish. I noticed that the guy giving up those 2 ballers hasn't had any "league activity" since early February which leads me to believe that this is a forced trade by the Commissioner without the other manager even knowing his players are being traded!! To make matters worse, the Commish changed the Trade Reject Time from 2 days to 1 day. He also extended the trade deadline so I am sure more will follow.
Obviously, the integrity of the league has been compromised.
I have seen threads about this in the past, and if I am not mistaken, there is nothing I can do about this can I? This is a public yahoo league H2H.

just got into a 20 team baseball league and there are 2 teams where the owner is playing for the first time(the bio thing). There is another team that is trading with the two of them like crazy. both of the teams are basically bench guys and the one guy has a full roster of all stars. a couple people said something and the commish jumps in and says that rankings dont matter, its all about potential, etc. its pretty blatant--he didnt even bleed them in over time, just moved them all in like 3 days
why do people cheat in a for fun, free game
sad---even sadder that we care----hahah

LOL @ this trade, and I didn't know people actually played free yahoo public leagues..
I've considered signing up for one, then with my first round pick selecting Yao Ming, my second rounder Yi Jianlian, and my third rounder Sun Yue.

If you don't get the veto to go through trade you best players to the guy in second place and be done with it.
