I think it's bad for Atlanta but never saw a problem with the trade and voted so. And Minnesota was wrong for jumping the gun instead of asking questions!!!!!!!

I'll wait until the morning, but if no one opposes I am going to send the trade through.

The vote is 7-0 with only 13 teams eligible to vote. (1 involved in the traded and 2 inactive teams.)I'll wait until the morning, but if no one opposes I am going to send the trade through.

Actually, Ezra as a commish of multiple leagues it's becoming more and more common for those like Kswetnam and myself......to have to manage more and more messes likes this as owners routinely bail on leagues in the middle of a season or without notice of any kind.... by and large we try to make decisions that are in the best interests of the leagues we commish.......and decisions that will in the shortest period of time help to sell the team..... there are all sorts of things in place to keep us in check including filing trade complaints etc if an owner thinks a decision was that far out of whack..... the league will ultimately speak if something really has gone that far south as they did in this case upholding the trade..... or to reverse if they see fit.....
The disappointment that Zoocorp, I believe, is referring to was/is the same that is shared by myself.......not that the trade was protested or that concern was raised..... that is perfectly fine.....but the idea that Kswetnam's decision to move ahead was immediately called BS without the benefit of the doubt.....and was called BS based on the false pretense that "We All" agreed to something which the league did not.....I just happen to believe that the better course of action would have been to question or ask why (also as Zoocorp is suggesting)......and to at least let Kswetnam have his day in court so to speak before we pronounced him or what he decided "guilty as charged".....for the decision he had made which I believe he made simply trying to do the right thing..... as it turns out the league supported the decision he made by vote.....which is the way the process is supposed to work!......the league ultimately decided!
Thanks for listening!:):):)

Right, because it's sooooo common for one person to manage two teams in a league. My bad!

That's cool guys. No worries. I tend to be a strict "by the rules, as written" kind of guy. That's all. "BS" was premature for sure.Pages: 1
