Wes Welker for Santonion Holmes, Jahvid Best, J. Nelson 

Post#1 » by britblazerdude » Fri Nov 4, 2011 12:34 am

Is this the most unfair trade you've ever seen? It's been accepted in my league and I'm trying to get to league to veto it.

Note the following:

previously this season, I offered the owner of Wes Welker this trade:

Larry Fitzgerald, Owen Daniels and Anquan Boldin

for

Ray Rice and fillers.

One of the reasons for the rejection of that trade was not Fitz was on a bye week.

That trade was rejected but the following, he accepted.

Wes Welker (the #5 point getter in our league).

for

J. Nelson, J. Best, and S. Holmes.

2 players of quality marginally better than the waiver wire and Jahvid Best who has been injured for 2 weeks. MAY I ADD that he is on a bye week-one of the reasons my trade was rejected? The team with Nelson, Holmes and Best only started all three of players in the same week once all season?

Welker is statistically better than Ray Rice this season.

I am fundamentally opposed to vetoing trades because of fairness. If there's clear collusion, then fine, but the rest of the league doesn't get to legislate how an owner wants to run his/her team.

There is $800 on the line in this league. The two teams in question are owned by a married couple who are currently far out in the league standings. I see collusion.
