I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

The playoff races are in full swing, will start some updates next week on how they are going.  Be sure if you have trouble hooking up to be sure you get a plan in place and a sub if needed.  Thanks for the great work guys!  I have updated files on the website, go ahead and get those and get started on your game contacts for week 12.

 

I can’t stress enough that you 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.

***There is a new game update available on the website, dated 11/6/13 *** 

 

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 enough names as the more injuries the more likely someone else already grabbed the guy 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.

II. News from Around the League 

 

This week in the AFC the NY Jets beat Buffalo and Pittsburgh wins it’s third straight, beating the Bears.  New England stays unbeaten, 11-0, with a win over San Francisco and Indianapolis pulls the big upset over Tennessee.  Cleveland gets a big win over Denver to take the lead in the East and Houston falls to Green Bay.  San Diego gets by Dallas to move into a tie out West and Minnesota loses again at Jacksonville.

This week in the NFC Seattle wins big over Miami and Carolina does the same with Kansas City.  Philadelphia wins a shootout with New Orleans and Atlanta wins big over St. Louis.  Arizona beats Tampa Bay and Green Bay about wraps up the Central with a win over Houston.  Detroit beats the Giants to stay alive in the playoff race and Jacksonville stays on top in the East with a win over Minnesota.

Coming up in the AFC Clevenad heads to Buffalo with a slim lead in the East and Denver hosts Houston as they chase the top spot.  NY Jets host Dallas as they look to stay alive in the division as well and New England will try to stay unbeaten as they head to Minnesota.  Tennesee and San Diego are the big game of the week as they face off with the West top spot in the balance and Indianpolis tries to keep their playoff hopes alive as they head to San Francisco.  Pittsburgh hosts New Orleans and Chicago hosts Tampa Bay as both teams try to get out of the Central basement.

 

Coming up in the NFC Philadelphia and Arizona face off out West and this could decide the division or tighten things up.  Jacksonville will try and avoid the upset with Detroit and Green Bay will try and finish off the Central division with a win over Carolina.  Seattle goes to the Giants as they try and hold the 5th playoff slot and New Orleans will head to Pittsburgh trying to keep their slim lead for the final playoff slot.  Atlanta and Kansas City face off with the loser dropping their final playoff hopes and Tampa Bay plays Chicago.  Miami looks for revenge and their first win over St. Louis.
