One of my agents (who is nameless for now) decided his player was too far on the depth charts to stay on my team next season. No problem, I've had this happen quite a few times. I am kind of annoyed he decides to tell me after Game 2, instead of in the offseason so I can let him go on his way and all, but not a big deal. He asks me to restructure his contract for a season earlier than he signed. Since I am a nice guy and he was up front with me, I obliged. He makes a sarcastic comment in a reply to me about being buried on the depth chart, yet is getting just as many plays as everyone else. Ok, no problem, he wants to dominate level 30 NOOBs next season, not my cup of tea, but I'm sure I can replace him in the offseason.
All is well until I get a PM from some random owner out of the blue. The random owner starts saying that this guy has been unhappy and spreading it around, and I can trade him to this guy, and the other owner promises to "rot him the rest of his career". I have no beef with the guy, but am curious with the remark that he decided to badmouth the team, when I thought I was pretty fair in restructuring his deal, and still giving him tons of playing time. I ask him to show me where. He then becomes defensive, and says that "one of the agents on my team told him about it". Since there is no negativity about the situation on my forums, I highly doubt this. In fact, as you all have probably figured out, the other owner is probably a friend of the agent on my team, trying to get him onto his team. I ask him to name the agent who told him this, he refuses. Both him and the agent now have read but not responded to my PMs, knowing I caught them.
Pretty funny that he decided to try this method of getting traded instead of just being direct. I would have been willing to trade him for a replacement player and some cash for my trouble (or just outright released him last season if he told me before then). I think I've been fair, but I really hate this kind of dishonesty. I gave them a chance to be honest, but they have both decided silence is a better course of action. I have NEVER rotted a player before, but I'm thinking this might be a good opportunity. I hate being a dick, but this really struck me as extremely pathetic.
1) Trade him to a team I GM on and rot him?
2) Do nothing
3) Other?
