Just traded away Cobb and Roeth for Rodgers.
I offered Cobb and Eli for Rodgers and this was his counter. WTF?
Now I'm sure I need to defend this trade so it doesn't get vetoed. Curious to your thoughts on the drop of Rodgers to Eli. Keep in mind Eli has a cupckae schedule of GB, NO, Washington, and ATL. I'm actually planning to start Eli over Rodgers in week 15 as Rodgers is @ Chi and Eli is @ Atl.
Then your thoughts on the drop from Cobb to DHB or Britt.
It's 1 PPR with 5 bonus for 100 yards.
It's also 6 pts for all TD's including passing.
I like the Rodgers side more obviously, but don't think starting Rodgers over Eli every week is as big of a deal as some may think.

There was a little scuttle but the votes are currently 6-0 with no vetos.
I ended most of the scuttle by just sitting back and watching. The two owners making all the noise just dug themselves big holes. Telling owners what they should and shouldn't do, league integrity etc. One even posted how they were more concerned with me winning back to back than the deal itself.
My post was titled League Integrity
Open the post and it said
P.Manning for Romo and T.Smith
Brady for Stafford and V.Jax
Rodgers for Eli and Cobb (All trades that have happened this season)
Then pointed out how Cobb is the best keeper in the above deals with our league rules and a higher ranked 2012 WR for the remaining weeks. Also how all 3 QB's have averages withing 2 weekly points of each other.
Funny as the two making noise both said they were in favor of the deal, but complained over and over again area the owners who received Brady and P.Manning.
This owner has historically been the second best owner in the league. For some reason he doesn't like Eli at all, and also thinks Cobb will be a top 5 WR next year with a floor of top 10. He might be right on Cobb, but Roeth is just a head scratcher.

Just to give you the rest of the story…
Trade went through. Lots of eyebrows were raised until they realized I had offered Eli first and the owner wasn't aware Roeth almost died.
Next day the league bitch trades T.Richardson AND J.Charles for Danny freaking Amendola. Owner receiving the RB's is in my division and the biggest whiner regarding my deal… Actually these two were the only complainers. My trade passed 7-0.
Obviously this trade was set up to ruffle feathers and piss owners off. Guy getting Amendola is saying that Danny will be the #3 WR drafted next year and it was the best deal he could get. Meanwhile guy getting the 2 RB's opens up and said he would have done either RB for Danny, doesn't need both. Also says he was offered Charles, Richardson AND Jordy Nelson for Danny, but told the owner he should keep Jordy as he's a keeper and would make for a hard decision to start over what he has.
After enough other owners calling them out the owner getting the two RB's vetoes his trade and my trade THAT WAS APPROVED! At this point I'm done… Really not that pissed about my deal as I really do like Cobb, and I also think Eli is going to put up similar points to Rodgers. What did piss me off was I planned to make 1 or 2 other moves and this eliminated all future trades.

So this brings us to 11/26 when my team squeaks out a 3 point win. What makes this win sweet is I beat the co commish that vetoed my deal…
He called Monday morning to tell me how much he sucks at fantasy football because he started freaking Danny Amendola instead of S.Jax or Bradshaw.
My response yeah that's to bad… you also could have just let my trade that was approved by the league go through and I would have scored 14 points less.
I instantly struck a nerve and he replied he wished his trade also would have went through as it would have prevented him from playing Amendola.
This is literally the 6th time in the past 2 seasons bad karma has bitten an owner directly in the arse.
