| Vinny, been sending you trade offers and emailing you, could you please at least reply or show some signs of life. I don't want to tell you how to run your team or anything, but if I had the worst team on here, I would consider all trade offers and be as active as possible trying to improve it. |

| Save your breath vulture. I've been there, the only way to get a response is to email him and then its a one line answer; no counter won't even discuss it. In terms of trading it's getting to be a pretty inactive league out there, you have to win with what you got. I won't lie I find the correlation between inactive teams and the last place teams to be pretty funny. |

| I agree with you guys this was the most active league last year but nothing this year. I am in 5 leagues counting this one and have made 6 trades this week alone, but can't even get a counteroffer from anyone in this league. |

| Yeah I agree, I've been sending out my normal slew of offers, lol. Have only gotten counters or discussions out of a couple of people though. If you want to make trades my advice is seek Brew City, Prairie, and Brownies, and Oregan (if it isn't for MJD or peterson). They seem to be the only 3 willing to try and work something out. |

| oh, forgot about dragon slayers, he's willing to listen to offers as well, can't leave him out. As for Tennessee, Lancaster and Vinny, you might as well forget it though. It is like you said though, the 3 I think has the worst teams right now are those 3. |

| Perhaps your trade offers are not worthy of a response. Why would you want to trade with the worst team in the league? Are you that desperate?

| I will be gone for a couple days with limited computer access. Should any offers come my way I will respond when I get back. I hope the league gets as active as last year. I think everyone is giving it a couple weeks to evaluate what the have got. Talk to ya soon. |

| Thanks for the response vinny. And I didn't say you don't have a couple of good players, there are a couple I would love to have, lol. |

| That's the whole point vinny, if the offer isn't good enough, make a counter offer or express why you didn't like it. Letting it sit there is why we are saying your inactive. The second part of your statement was answered by vulture, but to elaborate some more; I had arguably the worst team on here last year, worse than your team, but through a series of trades I barely missed the playoffs and am now sitting at 3-0. Perhaps more importantly than why would we want to trade with you is why aren't you trying to trade? |

| I play in many leagues and, personally, I don't have time to respond to ridiculous offers. Offering 3 borderline cuts for a star player is not fair no matter how many players you throw in. I continue to get offered mutiple RBS for a stud WR when those players would never start for me. I seldom get a response to my trade offers. By the way, I was the top scoring team in the regular season last year, 2nd to Nasty Boys in the power ranking, and lost to Dragon Slayers by 5 points in the semis... |

| LOL are you serious, borderline cuts? Maybe thats why you are 1-2 this year. Thomas Jones- Only 1 RB on your whole team has outscored him this year and you haven't even started that RB yet, hightower. Trent Edwards- Would be the #1 fantasy QB on your team, he is outscoring all 3. Lavernous coles- Sure he hasn't done anything yet, but a new team and a whole new venue to learn, will get rolling soon. Heyward Bey- He's a rookie, can't do too much as a rookie, but with only 1 catch for the year he is outscoring the only rookie RB/WR that you drafted Rashad Jennings. The guys on lancaster's team I have tried trading for, all of these guys for Portis (hasn't done shit, now shares carries and career is coming to an end faster than t. jones is, and thats pretty damn quick. And have also tried for V. Jackson, who has never been a stud yet, but kind if like edwards and Heyward Bey has loads of potential. If you don't like those 4 guys, hey, your aloud to your opinions, but saying they are borderline waiver wire guys, buddy you might want to check out how shitty your QB's and RB's are actually doing before you mouth someone elses. I didn't once say you had to like my guys or do any trades at all with me, all I would like is a damn reply from people saying who they are or aren't interested in trading away or trading for. Lancaster you did have a hell of a team last year, but most of your RB's are injury riddled fools and you dont' even use your top one for the year. And you can't win in here without a QB, and trust me you have none. When there are 2 QB's on the FA wire with more points then your best one, thats pretty damn sad. Once again not trying to tell you how to run your team, but if I had the shitty QB's you do, I would be making offers to everyone trying to get a stud QB. Thats ok by me though, I'll see you in 3-5 seasons when your rookie QB's will give you enough punch to make the playoffs again. |

| I got to ask how many is "many" leagues, because I play in many leagues and it hasn't once stopped me from pushing accept, or reject, I mean it does take all of 2.5 seconds which does put a strain on my schedule, but I do it anyway for the sake of the other owners. Also I don't know if you realize it or not, but "mutiple RBS for a stud WR when those players would never start for me," is a response so how hard was that? |

| Agreed with ghosts, you didn't have a problem posting what you didn't like about my trades on here, now if I can just get the others to do the same, so maybe I can come up with something new. Jeez what is it with people, seems I have to get on here and piss everyone off just to get a response out of people, lol |

| Ironic that anytime anyone talks about crappy trade offers Vultures takes it as a personal attack... |

| Well when you say offering 3 borderline cuts for 1 player, how many people in this league has offered you 3 for 1 trades lately??? I'd say not many, but I have. And talk of crappy teams, my team has already outscored yours by over 50 points this year, and after 3 weeks thats a fairly big margin. Just for the record, my bench has also outscored you by 4 points this year. |

| Didn't does take much time to tell someone you don't want to trade a certain player or tell someone you don't want certain players. No need to explain but just tell the other owner if you keep getting the same offers.Just my opinion. |
