Technically, yes, but you did enter his team. I consider it as though it were actually scud. I believe he did make some of the picks in that draft.

And this is why you don't make a trade before knowing where you are picking... I will honor this rip off from over a month ago. I apologize to the entire league for my error.

So what, that is 4, 101, 140, 140 for 40, 58, 135, 135?

So, from last year's draft, that is like:
Michael Jordan, Jamario Moon, Al-Farouq Aminu and Ron Harper
for
Kevin McHale, Rajon Rondo, Raja Bell, Shane Battier

Obviously that is a little hokey since those players won't likely be the exact some picks and the 6th rounders are sort of meaningless.

That being said, that is a really terrible trade. The onus is less on you and more on the league as a whole for allowing this kind of stuff to happen. However, it was reasonably obvious where ben's pick would be and your odds... so you kind of had to understand what it would look like when you made it.

I don't like it but the league was around a long time before I ever joined it.

so basically you're going to punish me for making up a shortfall and bailing out the league last season? that's pretty f-d up dude

I'm taking the more advantageous slot of the two teams I paid for, think of it that way

I thought there was supposed to be a mechanism in place to insure that lopsided trades don't happen (maybe I'm thinking of the funk52)

This is a one pick difference that I personally think is trivial so, if I had a vote, I'd say whatever is cool with me. I am guessing scud also probably doesn't give a sh**.

I know but anyone who has been around here long enough knows I can get my back up over the principle of the thing
(and just like Walter in The Big Lebowski I'm not wrong)

Sheesh. I had no idea it would be a big deal. Never thought of it as punishment.

that said, Scud agrees with you. I'll fix it when I get home

There is. It's called me ruling with an iron fist.

The trade is vetoed. We've already lived through what happens when Ben makes a super advantageous trade, and I can't have that happen.

Thx commish. Thing is these trades dont occur in a vacuum. They usually end up giving 1 or both teams an advantage over the rest of the league.
I mean why else would ppl want to trade?
