    In my league there is a 2 day waiting period for trades but early this morning a trade went through involving a 1-8 team who is pretty much giving up and a 4-5 team.

    1-8 gave Chris Paul and Gerald Wallace to the 4-5

    4-5 gave E. Ilyasova, C. Billups, and R. Felton to 1-8

    No one in my league said they got an email regarding this trade which obviously would have been vetoed. The 4-5 team is arguing that it's not his fault the 1-8 team is giving up and that he didn't break any rules (keep in mind the 2 teams involved are friends)

    Is our league manager justified in manually putting the players back on their respected teams???

    they didnt violate the waiting period, right? no one checked their lineups or the league page for two days? trade stands.

    Yes, this appears to be a fantasy basketball question.

    It's not that no one checked it... I and a few others check it on a daily basis but their was no email or alert mentioned of a pending trade in those 2 days. Not one person in the league got any mention of it. The 4-5 team sends out a trade like this with the 1-8 almost everyday for about the past week.

    how is a proposed trade not mentioned anywhere on the league page?

    if it's just that no e-mail went out about this one, i dont think thats enough to cancel it

    Nonsense like this is the absolute worst thing about playing fantasy leagues. Except for the whole stolen league money thing of course.

    Yea I'm starting to realize that. My other leagues are fine though, no problems what so ever and they all agree this is "team stacking" bullshit
