I've been offered this trade. I accepted and it went through. Now other members of league say it's a "dumb" trade and it's getting recalled.

He gets: Frank Gore, Terrelle Pryor Jr, Tyrell Williams, Dwayne Allen
I get: LeVeon Bell, Tyler Lockett, Jason Witten

His Team (before trade): Cam Newton, Marcus Mariotta, Devante Freeman, Carlos Hyde, LeVeon Bell, Ryan Matthews, Tavon Austin, Torrey Smith, Devan Funchess, Tyler Lockett, Jason Witten, Zach Ertz

My Team (before trade): Tom Brady, Matthew Stafford, LeSean McCoy, Jamaal Charles, Frank Gore, I. Crowell, S. Drauhns, Demarius Thomas, Marvin Jones Jr., Doug Baldwin, Terrelle Pryor Jr., Tyrell Williams, Dwayne Allen, Tyler Eifert

That trade is fine. I would have asked for more (talent, not players)...but its veto worthy or anything.

i wouldn't have done the trade in his shoes, but it seems "somewhat fair" because his receivers are awful and Gore isn't doing bad

I'm personally not a fan of massive trades like these but that just looks like a bunch of bench fodder for LeVeon Bell. I know Frank Gore is having a solid season so the trade is probably fair but I wouldn't have done it.

Certainly not like that elementary bull shite. Two people should be able to manage teams however they want.

But neither team are yours, so it really doesnt matter. There is no obvious collusion, so it should stand.

Getting recalled? Like the guy who offered the trade has changed his mind based on other's opinions? That's bush league. Manage your own team.

Or did it get vetoed instead of recalled? That's also crap. It's not veto worthy.

In my leagues, the commish is the only one that can veto a trade. Other managers have no say. If the trade is obvious collusion, we (I am one of the commissioners) will either veto or ask them to justify their thinking. If they can't, then veto.

I would have accepted the trade with him asking for more talent. I'm a firm believer in all trades are legal unless it's obvious collusion. If both teams are improving it doesn't matter if the rest of the league thinks it's not fair. Negotiating is part of the game.

At the draft I was told I had the worst team. Now my team is too good to make the trade because the players that I was laughed at for picking on draft day are doing well.

The trade went through. The traded players are on my team now. Other owners saw the trade and got it vetoed because they said it's a dumb trade.

The league is set up for commissioner approval, zero day waiting. Although I believe it supposed to be commissioner approval and he has to approve it. The commissioner also thinks it's not a good trade.

My rule is typically that we are all grown men and we don't veto trades
