Nice. What matters to me are your implied accusations. A "red flag", eh? Yup, you caught us conspiring. Crystal balls are great. While we are looking at careers and sour grapes, can I have Vrbata back? I waived him early in the season and you have enjoyed his career year...

It raises a red flag when the 1st place team trades with the last place team for arguably one of the best players in the league, and you give up to what amounts to a hot streak. Hiller is playing above his career averages in the past 30 days, that would amount to a hot streak. He is on a bad team that probably won't be winning too many more games. Where Smith is on a playoff contending team that needs to keep winning, which gives him better upside, and arguably more value in a trade. We will just have to agree to disagree on this.

There are no rules that I'm aware of that forbid me from speaking out. And never did I campaign for others to vote to veto, just making everyone else aware. Also I never said anyone actually stopped playing in the league, but it does occur in all fantasy sports and happened last season here. So I stated that it could happen.

I never said you cheated and I am not implying that either. I am just explaining to you my reasoning for why I was against the trade. If I wanted to say you were cheating I would come out and say it. I still believe Sedin's value is higher than what you gave up.

I unfortunately posted that reply and really didn't want to, and that is why I edited it. The damage and the trade is now done so I'm moving on. I'm sorry that you are taking this so personally as it was not intended to be that way.

I will take your word for it. I cannot read your mind, just what you write.
