So I do NOT agree with Scorpions 'assumption' that it should be Shep's 'natural' first round pick that was traded: I think that if the pick was not specified in the trade discussions (which it should've been!) then it is 'buyer (Clowns) beware' and Shep should KEEP his highest first round pick..
Point 1 - The trade offer was made from MFL site, which CLEARLY lists where each pick came from, whether its the owners pick or it came from another team....and from Transaction history, the trade CLEARLY was for Sheps pick, not Swords. So I don't see there being any confusion...you pick which players/picks you want to offer...

Point 2, there is absolutely NO PRECEDENCE to your point in our league history...it was not Clowns responsibility to keep track of Sheps team..that is ludicrous...once again, find some precedence for your point, and I will consider ruling in your favor....just look through the history of trades made regarding picks..whenever there was any question of which 1st/2nd/3rd/etc pick was at stake when a team had multiples, it was stated which one was involved in the thread.
