MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER
The
playoff races are in full force with many teams still alive in both
conferences, see below for where the races stand.
Please be sure to get in touch with your opponent and set a time
early in the week. Keep up
with those game contacts asap and good luck to all in week 13.
I
can’t stress enough that need to IMMEDIATELY send me your game export
when the game is complete.
Send your write up later on, that’s fine, but I MUST have the game
export as soon as the game ends or I’ll have to sim the game to keep
things.
***A
new game update is available dated 10/29, please get it from the ISFL
website before you play any games this week.***
Don’t
forget, if you lose a player for 2 or more games, you can ask for an
injury replacement, but it must be done the same week as the injury, so
don’t wait, get those requests in right away and take advantage,
especially the teams who are already challenged for the amount of games
they have to work with.
Also, be sure you give me a enough names.
Week 2 there were 15+ injury requests, if you are a good team,
you will need to list 3, 4 or more names to be sure you get a player you
want.
Reminder that you MUST send a boxscore and writeup to the league after
each game. The home team is
responsible for this, but either team can do it, as long as it does get
done. Also, you MUST send me
the game export immediately after the game is complete.
It takes about 30 seconds, so I shouldn’t have to chase you down
for that file after a game, just get it in right away so I don’t have to
guess whether a game has happened or not.

Carolina. Pittsburgh visits
the Pack while Indianapolis travels to Miami.
Denver hosts the Falcons and Chicago and New England go head to
head with the loser likely out of the Central race.

this point, Buffalo and the Jets are fighting it out for the East in a
dead heat, with Cleveland, Denver and Houston all out of the playoffs.
Indianpolis holds a 2 game lead in the Central, with the Patriots
and Bears facing off and likely one of them being in trouble after this
week. Dallas holds a 1 game
lead in the West over Tennesssee who is in good shape for a playoff
spot, while San Diego sits in 8th and will need to pass a
couple of teams to join the party.
Pittsburgh, San Fran and Minny are all done for the season.
Week

a fight for the conference basement.
Atlanta heads to Denver and Philly has the Vikings coming to
visit. Kansas City faces of
with Tampa Bay and Detroit goes to the Browns.
Arizona will try and avoid a let down against the Saints.
Jacksonville has all but sewn up the East and the conference, a
win over Seattle could get them both, a loss prolongs things a bit
longer. Kansas City holds 3
game lead in the Central and with the a win and Packers loss could win
the Central. Arizona leads
the Buccaneers in the West by 2 game and the Panther by 3 games, a win
and they could about lock up the West.
Seattle leads the wild card hunt and Tampa Bay sits in 5th,
with Green Bay and Carolina tied at 6-6 for the final spot and both
Detroit and New Orleans holding some faint playoff hopes.
Philly is on life support at this point, with 2 games to make up
