I really don't want to see any additional selling. It was sort of a pain in the ass and I think we're fine with 3 keepers, auction draft and waivers. There's already enough incentive to deal based on keeper value.
Right, so you just assume the guy who has been in the league forever and has never done anything shady in the league or anywhere else here is suddenly colluding. Gotcha.

I thought the trade was favoring one party, but not really enough to be veto worthy, even with them playing each other.
Apparently SJ isn't really interested in keepers. *shrug*
No, I just didn't think those were particularly good offers. Like I said, I thought Bell was still eligible as a keeper, and that's the caliber (and keeper value) I was after. If you look at my roster, I have two clear keepers already. Maybe a 3rd, as I could do worse than keeping Gates for a buck. So any move is for 1 quality guy, not 3 OK players. Charles + Gates is my best package for a top tier guy that opens a keeper spot for me. If the offers I'm getting are the best I'm going to see, I might as well see if one of you goes 0-2 and I sneak in.
So yes, I'm interested in keepers. No, I'm not interested in what you proposed. *shrug*
Here's one proposal.
I do think at this point we should close the trade window though
Hey, you want a keeper? I'll throw you Murray.
That's why there's a counter button, right? And AJ Green is an OK player? LO-fucking-L. Denard Robinson? A top 5 RB since he started is just OK? Smith Sr. was a throw-in to give you flexibility at WR since you would have given up brown. Hey, you want a keeper? I'll throw you Murray.
But what was your ask - Antonio Brown and Charles? Yeah, there's a counter button, but I don't think we're in the same ballpark. RB1 is a premium in this league with the number of flex slots we play. And Brown is the best fantasy WR in the league.
Basically, you thought I was giving away Gates and Charles for Bell, but you think your offer is better. That's debatable.
Remember PMing me at the beginning of October with the notion that I was out of the playoffs? What did you offer then for Charles? Now all of a sudden I'm back in it when we need to veto. Hey that's great, it did save me from getting a guy that I can't keep, but really that's not the purpose.
That's why I'm not using the counter button. Make your best offer if you'd like.
TJ, it looks like you and me may be facing off in the consolation bracket Toilet Bowl. 1-12 and 2-11 teams squaring off, LOL what a wretched finale this will be. May the best (worst) team prevail!
