You insinuated yourself in your original post that your trade wasn't fair.deutschland wrote:While the trade is being reviewed I decide to send the new guy a "fair" offer
When you put fair in quotes, you're saying it's not really fair.
no, i'm saying it's fair enough not to get vetoed IF it is accepted.deutschland wrote:, knowing that his current trade will surely get vetoed and that these 2 guys will probably try to work out a better deal.

If your deal was so "fair", then why were you suprised?
because the guy has been an absentee owner most of the year and has never responded to a trade offer.deutschland wrote:Fine. I get Santana and he gets some fair value in return (his weaknesses are saves and steals).
"some fair value" being different, of course, than "complete fair value"
so what? do you run all of your trade offers through a matrix before sending them out to make sure they are exactly equal in value?deutschland wrote:It eventually gets vetoed by ESPN league commish (surprise, surprise, right?)
I'm sure that's what your friend is saying tonight.
