We were messing around in a league and created two teams. (Cincinnati Reds and AAA Louisville Bats). One of us drafted pitchers and positions of scarcity and the other picked power hitters.

After the draft we traded all of the good players to the Reds and then were using the Bats as the place to hold our lesser players. One guy got really really angry and reported us to Espn. Apparently it is a banable offense. The guy trep talked to took his job as "collusion head" very seriously haha. The person I talked to was much more easy going. He said all would be well in 72 hours

This was briefly the Reds roster:

C- Mauer
1B- Youk
2B- Cano
SS- Jeter
3B- Alvarez
2B/SS- Utley (that was jordos fault, i wanted fielder and he drafted utley in the second round. ugh)
1B/3B- Billy Butler
OF- Braun, Hamilton, Choo, Ethier, Bruce
Util- Ortiz

Pitchers:

Felix Hernandez, Hanson, Cain, Gallardo, Liriano, Scherzer, Sanchez, and Romero

K-Rod, Andrew Bailey, and Brandon League (needed a 3rd closer and he was the only one on waivers).

I think that team could compete for a league championship. I don't blame the guy in our league for getting mad haha. Kinda surprised that he A) reported us to ESPN and B) that collusion is a bannable offense though. Then again he probably reported us because we kind of mocked him when he got mad. Oh well.

Yeah the other one was better:

The Los Angeles Thugs:

C- V Mart
1B- Votto
2B- Phillips
3B- Longoria
SS- Reyes
2B/SS- Prado
1B/3B- Konerko
OF- Cargo, Choo, Kemp, Hamilton, Ethier
Utility- Morales

Pitching:

Lester, Ubaldo, Jared Weaver, Wandy Rodriguez, Romero, Gallardo, Cain

Feliz, Ryan Franklin, Chris Perez

That team was loaded. I'm surprised we didn't really get any complaints in that league. Oh well, looks like our days of doing that are done lmao.

You're not kidding. The guy I talked to made it sound like I'd be banned for eternity haha. He was like, well I will go through and review your past fantasy leagues for other activities like this" and then said something about IP banning me from the site, which is ridiculous. It might be because he and I got off on the wrong foot though haha I was fired up when I first got on their live help chat thing. Do what you will to my fantasy teams but don't mess with my bracket challenge I have on ESPN right now.

you wont be able to keep tabs on your bracket for the next couple of days, but you should be fine. In fact, I am able to login and mess with my fantasy basketball team with my Blackberry. Not sure how that's possible... haha

Not a fan of uneven trades (2 for 1). Sorry.

I mean, I could just drop that player. It has more to do with the fact, when a 2-1 comes along, you typically have 2 solid guys for a stud. While Upton is unproven, I think he is going to end the year a top 15 guy, just has all the tools. Im just not a fan of giving up a guy like that unless Im getting the same type of player in return (that obviously fills a need).

Ive been going over your team, and we just arent very compatible for trades lol. I do want Beckham, but I dont know what OFer is comparable in value on my team.

Yeah I knew you had mentioned needing a middle infielder, and I think Rollins will be a prime bounceback candidate. And I know Upton has upside, but I think Markakis is a solid OF as well. Not on Upton's level but close. .300 average and close to 15 HRs. Plus he has more protection in his lineup this year.

Yeah I saw that espn was really pushing people to download that app. I usually just use the mobile fantasy site. It works well for what I want to do. I usually save transactions and lineup changes for the desktop. I just use the mobile site on my phone to keep tabs on my team

What's it called? I've been looking for one for my Droid but I haven't found one yet.

EDIT: Nevermind I just found it. They must have just added it to the app store.

I use the monsterpro app. It is espn and yahoo in one app. Great for me since I usually work evening and can never make the last minute changes.
