Damn, I wouldn't mind getting one of those foam fingers.

VERY MAD. If I had a more mad font choice, I'd be all over it. I've just been laughing at your horrific attempts to rationalize the trade.
Here's what you should say. Bort's trade balance logic is retarded. Not just any retarded but like pulling a train on a bearded cross-dressing midget in high heels ... that kinda retarded. Its been retarded for ages and I decided to exploit it for the benefit of my team. Eh, you don't like it GFY. I'm just here to drive a Mack truck through the loopholes.
I mean Bortimus isn't going to ban you. You've got player build designs for legions of players. In fact, you could say that it was a max cash trade so technically MoD came out ahead in the deal because the little blue line was on their side.

hmm. So trading players is a loophole? Would you feel better if we had traded mamadu to mod? Didn't really matter, and the "loophole" you're saying that will be fixed next season would still have allowed us to make a trade going forward.
So since this is a beta game, explain to me how you would fix this issue of trading for players near the trade deadline. I am really curious as to how you would fix trading if we ever get out of beta.

fwiw, I tried to look up trade vetoes in the NFL rule book and found nothing. I thought either the commissioner could veto or the other owners could vote to veto trades but I guess not? Just a bunch of mumbo jumbo about how each franchise is it's own business entity and can run it as they see fit.

Lol this convo. Didn't know trading for a player before the deadline was off limits. Sure it will help us, but sometimes an owner who knows their season is over is willing to accommodate the players on their team. I seem to recall Tooley's HB going to MEM one season and to Blaze another, as well as a MLB on Tooley's team going to I think MEM as well...Stern, no reason to keep arguing with them, all you have to say is that the agent wanted the dot to play on a contender in his last season and Stobie was willing to allow that to happen. If you have a problem with the trade deadline being this late don't take it up with us, it has always been this way and moves have been made for elite dots in the past.

You're dead on too. Randy moss to the patriots for a 4th rd draft pick.
Pao gasol to the lakers
Everybody in baseball to yankees/wherever
hockey who cares

I'd feel just fine regardless. I never said the loophole was going to be fixed next season. In fact, I'm pretty comfortable in saying that ridiculously unbalanced trades are still going to be allowable. Hell I'm pretty sure MoD could have gutted their team for about 12 hours and allowed everyone a chance to escape the asylum. A GM then could message support and buy back the team.
I mean .. you could do it with multiple teams even after the trade deadline and continue to rack and stack. You'd naturally have to be willing to accept the chem hit but it would still be doable. FWIW, I don't particularly care about the trade. I think your attempts to explain it were just horrific though.
Like blln said, the trade is legal. Trades like that have been done thousands of times in dotball. Blln explanation = good. Stern's 55 for 1 explanation = O_o

Moss for a 4th could be argued to be a fairly equal trade at the time, since a 4th round pick could prove to be a great long term investment if the player pans out... and Moss was getting up there in years. Plus, he had a couple of shit seasons before that.
Gasol to the Lakers was a p outrageous trade tbh. Never mind that I'm a Blazers fan so naturally.... bleh
No Salary Cap in MLB. The divide between owners that are willing to pay anything for a trophy and the Pirates is laughable.
