Jules may just be lucky as hell if the Dolphins continue to shut Moss out of the game. ---

Also willing to do Peyton Hillis + Terrell Owens for an elite receiver. ---

Trade to announce. Overly Sentimental gives up Antonio Gates and Carnell Williams Exploding Pancakes gives up Jahvid Best and Tony Gonzalez Since it’s a trade I’m involved in, go ahead and register your habitual complaints. I think it’s pretty fair though - #1 TE for the #4 RB - if anything the value favors him, especially considering Gonzo is better than Caddy. I’m planning on making the trade go through before gametime Sunday. As always, if the league ends up deciding to veto this it can be undone. I’d like to point out, in review, that **It’s Not Rocket Surgery!** probably does not feel buttraped having the #2 overall RB in exchange for the 27th overall WR. ---

I’m gonna push the trade through now. Not giving myself special treatment - I said early in the thread that I’m going to push trades through before gametime. If there ends up being controversy and objections and the league wants to nullify it, I can retroactively revert the trade after the fact. I don’t see that being a problem here, so I want to give Overly Sentimental a a chance to set his roster. ---

I got beaten by a fucking kicker scoring 19 points. For fucks sake. ---

I’m going to helping my mother move over the weekend – the computers will likely be packed up today – so if I don’t get a chance to adjust my rosters before Sunday, could the commish please insert Reggie Wayne into my starting lineup in place of Devery Henderson when my trade goes through? Thanks. Oh, and I traded Matt Forte (who was just going to sit on my bench behind Peterson and MJD despite being the 4th best RB so far) for Reggie Wayne, straight up. ---

What idiot did you fleece with that trade? God, I’m sick of people like you taking advantage of the more stupid owners in the league. Oh … wait. Nevermind. [sub]I’ll probably be able to do it myself, but Forte should end up starting instead of Forsett[/sub] ---

Oh, and did you have to accept the trade so fast? I made a simultaneous offer for Miles Austin, whom I slightly preferred, but had to cancel it after like 15 minutes because you were so quick. ---

I accepted a trade with Quentin’s JAMmers. I receive Ahmad Bradshaw and Louis Murphy and I trade DeSean Jackson and Fred Jackson. I need running back help, I handcuffed Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams and that hasn’t worked out. ---

Do you guys intend for that trade (made at 9:16am) to be processed before gametime? ---

If the league agrees, I’m fine with it. ---

Looks fine to me (Ahmad Bradshaw/Louis Murphy for DeSean Jackson/Fred Jackson) so that’s not a problem. I just wanted to make sure both players wanted it to go through now, and that they were ready to set their lineups. Anyway, if **Jules** also wants it fast tracked, I’ll go ahead and do it. I don’t want to catch him by surprise if he was expecting the trade for next week. I’ll be leaving for the bar soon so just declare your intentions before kickoff and if I don’t process it in time, I’ll retroactively go fix it. If you’d prefer to just let it go through next week too that’s fine. ---

I’ll be online until the first kickoff and I’m fine with the trade being processed immediately. ---

Ok. If Jules does want it pushed through, tell me what players you’d want to start in what slots (what your final starting roster would be) in case you don’t have enough time to set your rosters. ---

I’d start Ahmad Bradshaw over Ricky Williams. Louis Murphy over Mike Sims-Walker. ---

Whoa. I didn’t even know the trade had been accepted. I hadn’t even considered that it could have been accepted and pushed through. I guess I should have known the second that Jackson got hurt since that’s how fantasy has gone for me all season long. I think I would stand to benefit if the trade gets pushed through retroactively (Jackson scored a couple touchdowns) but honestly I hadn’t even considered that it would be processed for this week. I wasn’t planning on it.So I don’t think it should go through for this week. ---

I can’t do it now - it’s too easy to game the system if you get to choose afterwards whether to make the trade retroactive. Not that I think that’s what you’re doing, but it would make for bad policy in general. As long as both teams give me their intentions before the games I can make sure it happens how you want it, but I guess that trade caught you by surprise.
