I will veto any unfair trades...instantly approve fair ones...and allow the league to weigh in on any I feel are "on the fence". Also, as Commish, I will NOT propose any trades to other teams (I will consider trade offers made to me), any trade involving me I will leave up for 3 days and if 5 teams disagree (as is default Yahoo standard), I will veto same. This is more work for me (hense the "league votes" on the HTH League composed entirely of board members) but necessary to avoid someone ruining the ROTO league.
Somer, first thing is thank you for taking the time to run these leagues. I personally think that it is a bit foolish that you won't initiate any trades to make your team better. This is a free league for braggin rights only. Too think that you will take advantage of your commish powers is ridiculous.
