I'm not sure about the other owners but I have been getting random trade requests from all these new teams almost constantly. Dshban's new LB Mr. Kennedy....Kennedy is one of the more popular people to try and trade for.
I just find it funny they offer loads of cash and then get offended when I say, "no they are friends of mine and won't be traded".
Kids today. :D

I don't get any amusing trade requests.
Instead, I get level 1 or 2 players asking me if they can be signed to my team. This was just a couple days before the playoffs ended, so I patiently explained "more teams are coming. You might actually play for them! Trust me, you don't want to sit on the bench for my team".

[laugh] What the heck? He's level one!
I suppose it's all in the name, which is awesome, after all.

I thought the same thing.
I figure they either like the name or, more than likely, saw he was a level one and clicked on your profile and noticed you have high ranking players (allowing them to know you probably won't be inactive). So they figure they can get the level one cheaper than say Tubby's level 4 and know he will stay active on their team.
Although they may not look at it that in-depth.

Apparently because my backup Center posted that he wanted to be traded. Because he wasn't starting.
F-in douche. I moved him to starter two days ago, but he didn't notice.
I have half a mind to trade him just on general principle.

I hate stupid people. Like the FB I got rid of. He complained about "never seeing the field" even when he would have more carries that Shirlee (the starter) some games.

You're in the Pro's baby! And you didn't just luck into starting there, you/we earned our way there. Plus I think we have one of the best teams around. You're like a GLB gawd to these bright eyed noobs.
And no I don't get inundated by PM's. [down]

One of my former players was traded to that team. I think he said they're moving over to one of the USA A teams.
