Re: Fantasy football rules/ethics question
[ QUOTE ]
I'm shocked that a lot of people seem to be ok with this. Every fantasy league I've ever been in has had some type of a 'team cannot own the same guy twice in the same season' rule. I think allowing these types of trades comprimises the integrity of the league a little bit. [/ QUOTE ] Is this just for trades, or does it apply to the waiver wire too? I know I use a lot of different defenses throughout the course of a season depending on the matchup, it doesn't make much sense to block me from picking up a defense in week 15 that I dropped after week 3.

I see it as collusion. [/ QUOTE ] Absolutely. It's two teams working together repeatedly to circumvent the spirit of the rules. The NFL would never allow something like this.

Re: Fantasy football rules/ethics question
And I hate the a-holes who stockpile players they don't/won't/can't play to prevent their opponent from picking up a injury/bye-week replacement. But that's a different story rant.

If I have room on my bench why should I let a good player stay on the FA/WW for someone to pick up and use against me? I'd rather have them on my bench than have someone use them to beat me or the team I'm fighting for a playoff spot.

Re: Fantasy football rules/ethics question
Pretty much of all this is fair, so long as everybody is trying to win rather than helping somebody else's team at their own team's expense.
If the 1-week trades are mutually beneficial, it's fine by me.

I don't see a problem with it as long as both owners are acting for the benefit of their own team. Coulsion is only when one owner acts for the benefit of another to the detriment of his own team.
