    Allan was such a young stud, but the Wakefields are trying to win now. I guess this falls in line with letting Lopez and Tomo walk but I agree. :)

    It was my understanding that such blatant "buying" of players was prohibited. Cash was to be used to facilitate a deal, to help offset large salaries, not as a way to purchase a player.

    Under those grounds, I am protesting this trade.

    Under the same grounds, I'm cancelling the trade.

    Money is supposed to "put a deal over the top." In this deal, it's clear that dbc would never even contemplate it without the cash.

    EDIT: due to think fact that Joy is still in A, I'm considering allowing it. I'll render my decision shortly.

    The decision has been made. We have a new rule.

    The highest amount of money that can be played for a player is 10 million dollars, or the amount of the contract of the highest paid player in the deal, whichever is higher.

    If you two still both want to do this deal, but have the amount of money be 10 million, the deal shall go through.
