    Moron drops Matt Ryan calling "accident"

    Small 20 dollar yahoo buy-in. Guy drops Matt Ryan and immediately sends a league wide email saying it was an accident and that he hopes everyone can play by the "honor" system and basically let this guy pick him back up(he didn't add anyone he justed dropped him)



    Granted its just a 20 dollar league...I'm in a dozen of these and as much fun as they are my main object is to win money not "honor" from some dumb stranger who obviously had to CONFIRM the drop before he actually did it.

    I already have romo and roethlisberger. Do I try and add Ryan and risk no one trading with me and so forth or say **** it and try to,get him?

    Or at least have a league vote

    I like this answer the best. But I suspect it was REALLY an accident if he emailed almost immediately after the move. I doubt anybody would seriously drop Ryan this year.

    the fact that he didnt add anyone else makes this truly seem like an accident...definitely a noob for doing it but as a commissioner i would let him get ryan back

    I'll jump on the bandwagon and let him pick him up, but I'm curious how the accident happened. Never seen it in my leagues before.

    I took my waiver claim off as I have romo and ben the rapist although I did/do sorta wanna punish him for being an idiot and I feel like his team is good enough to be around at the end. He claimed he accidently dropped him when he was doing lineup changes on his iPad. I tried to release a nobody on one of my yahoo teams and it asked for confirmation before releasing him...so who knows. I have the 5th waiver and the guy who dropped him has #7 so I'll post an update to see if an owner is a little less forgiven than the posters here(lol I thought for sure the degens here would've said go get him!)

    Update on this...someone of course claimed Matt Ryan. No spewing on the league board however today the owner who claimed Ryan traded him back to the original owner along with Brandon petigrew for Gronk.

    I think the proper move would be to pick him up and say that you accidentally didnt see the email
