How Can I Intentionally Ruin My Fantasy Football League?

[SquishPCfriar]

Any suggestions on how I can intentionally ruin a fantasy football league I am in?  I first tried trading all of my best players to another team so someone else could dominate but its looking like that trade could get vetoed. 

The reason I am doing this is because of how corrupt the league is already.  I feel like my money is being stolen from me by the commissioner.

You could always just drop all of your players and not pick anybody up.  Or just not start any of your players.


But in the end I would probably just resign and if you havent paid yet don't pay.  or if you have , I would ask for your money back

Or you could just troll the fantasy message board hard.  I normally try to get into one or two fantasy fueds a season just to keep things spicey

I'm more interested in hearing about the corruption.  What's going on?

I'm currently asking for my money back but I thought of a couple other things I could do.

Will describe in detail shortly about the commissioners corruption.  Any other suggestions from anybody?

you could try contacting yahoo, and tell them there site is being used as a vessel for theft by a certain commissioner and ask them to shut the league down

I'd like to hear more about the corruption, but the best solution is probably to drop out (there's still time for a replacement) or quietly play out the season and never get involved with this person again.

Even if your experience is bad there may be some people who enjoy the league.  Screwing things up for them will just make them mad at you instead of the commish, and feeling like they've wasted their money too.  Depending on the situation, maybe rightfully so.

Ask David Stern, I'm sure he could give a few pointers on how to ruin a league.

You want him to septuple the league's revenue and make it popular worldwide?  That doesn't seem in line with the OP's interests.  Although I suppose being able to sell his team for half a billion or so would probably be agreeable to him.

Well, I hate people who do this type of stuff in fantasy but if you really want to stick it to the Commish, you could do a few things.

1) Trade away all your best players for 2 cents on the dollar (which sounds like you've already tried)

2) Drop all your guys (Some league settings restrict who can actually get cut on rosters, though)

3) Don't start anyone every week.  That assures the other team of winning each week.

4) Flood the message board with badgering & drama until you get your money back

There is no good reason to sabotage a FF league.

If the commish is bad, just quit. If you paid, too bad. Learn and move on.

If the commish is corrupt, there has to be others in the league in compliance. Eventually, it will only be those folks playing.

The commish can lock your team and set your lineup for you if you try to be a jerk.

Like I said, just move on.

What could he possibly have done that is so bad? The fact that you hesitate to post what he has done makes me suspicious.

The commissioner slept with my girlfriend

Ya I would probably bow out and ask for my money back.  You can tell his dude has a very low moral compus, no telling what he might do if you mess up his league.

Yikes.  That really sucks, but it's not a great reason to submarine his fantasy league...I'm assuming the other owners weren't sleeping with your girlfriend, so why ruin things for them too?  Just drop out gracefully and avoid dragging a bunch of third parties into your situation.

Maybe some kind of more specifically targeted revenge?  Hack his email and "accidentally" CC your gf on a message unsubscribing from a bunch of fat fetish sites because "I've got the real thing now"?  I dunno, be creative!
