Ummmm...there could be an issue with this trade...just to throw a nut in things...

Rules state trading deadline is the Wednesday before Week 12 games...well, we now play Week 12 games in Week 11, as we have the double header....

So, staying to the intent of the rule, should this trade not have been allowed? We are either moving our trading deadline to before game 11 or before game 13...Sticky wicket indeed...

I think this was set up to prevent team that are out of playoffs to start dumping players to teams that are in playoffs....do we stay by the letter of the rule, as it was before this rule change, or adjust it? Does it negate this trade, or do we make a rule for future seasons?
