Bizarre Veto Leaves Trade Teetering

Los Angeles - Associated Press

On occasion, trades in the Los Angeles County Bowling League have received enough protest votes to be vetoed. As a result, it should come as no surprise that the pending trade between The Seattle Seven and the NoTalentAssClowns has received at least one protest vote thus far. What is surprising is that the veto has been cast by Seattle Seven owner Joe Sonka.

A source close to the Sonka tells the Associated Press that the veto was cast "out of principle", and as a simple "reflex reaction." Apparently Sonka, having seen a pending trade involving the NoTalentAssClowns, immediately grabbed his rubber veto stamp and fired away. It was not until moments later that Sonka realized that he had cast a vote against his own trade.

Having one's trade rejected by league members typically opens a wound for the owners involved in the deal. However, when reached for comment, Sonka indicated that his cure lies in the veto itself. "Sure it would sting a little [to have the trade vetoed]", Sonka stated, "but spiting NTAC sure eases the pain."
