lets just forget about this.

I'm done...they colluded, everyone knows it, end of story.
I just won't be doing any business with their team or any of their players in the future.

I don't think this was collusion. Doing it via PM is a secret agreement but the purpose was neither illegal nor deceitful. Trading an inactive player to an inactive team makes sense. Why should this player be wasting a roster spot on a real team and why should the other guy be stuck on a team that doesn't have an owner. The Bandits got lucky. A team was disbanding and that team's GM happened to be on their team and tipped them off about it. It would have been absolutely nonsensical for the active players on Vassi's old team to be stuck there. I think the trade was fair because the numbers match up. Its a level 12 for a level 12. Trading an inactive to an inactive team doesn't hurt that team in the slightest and the Bandits bailed out that CB from several wasted weeks on his old team. The trade was beneficial for everybody involved.
This is all coming from a player on the team who is facing the Bandits in a day and my team is only 1 game behind them for the division lead. I have every incentive to cry wolf but I'm not going to because the Bandits did nothing wrong. I get that people don't like the Bandits, with the way some of their players run their mouths I don't blame you, but they are innocent in this matter.
I don't know who this guy is, but that's probably the most insightful thing I have read in this entire thread.
Oh, wait...he's on the Burning Pride. Damn. Oh well, I still respect that he can look in from the outside and develop a valid and concise account, and verbalize it in an appropriate manner.
Next time, can you add in some of tomorrow's game plan too? Much appreciated.

I have a great idea..just drop this crap and everyone go on their ways and just move on. I don't really give a crap anyways what goes on, but OMG this is a freaking game. A GAME!!! If this game goes away next week it won't effect anyones life and a couple of days later everyone will forget it even existed until they find another passtime to occupy their time. Sure, it all got blown out of proportion and a lot of hateful things were said, but maybe we can try and be adults from this point on. Joe, I understand what you did and why...but, it didn't work out like you had hoped and it caused a problem. It is life and it happens. Billy, same comment to you as well. Now, can we just get over this...trade Joe to a great rival team in our division so he can get revenge on his former team. Instead of letting this all be a bad thing, how about making this a rivalry thing. And YES, I do live in a dream world, but at least in my world there is peace.
