MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER
The
regular season is complete, thanks to all for another great season,
especially those who did not make the playoffs.
Congratulations to the playoff teams, more on the playoffs will
be coming in a later newsletter.
Thanks to those who have helped with subbing this season, I
appreciate that help. Please
don’t disappear just yet as we need to do some end of season voting as
well as talking about any ballot proposals we need to consider.
Game files are located on the website for the final regular
season results and standings, you will need these for the voting that is
soon to come.
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 moving along if it is missing at the deadline.
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.

News from Around the League
In
the AFC not a lot of surprises as Indianapolis downs Buffalo to take the
top spot in the conference while Dallas beats San Francisco to win the
West and lock up the #2 seed.
Denver can’t takes advantage of the Buffalo loss as they fall
badly to Seattle and the Bills get the East and the #3 seed and the
Broncos earn another trip to Buffalo for a wild card game. New England
beats Chicago to get the last wild card home game.
Tennessee finishes 13-3 with a victory at Minnesota and they are
relegated to the #5 seed and a trip to New England.
Pittsburgh falls at Detroit and San Diego does the same at Tampa
Bay as both stumble to the end of the season.
Cleveland wins over Houston and NY Jets just get by Arizona.
Coming up in the NFC the Wild Card round begins with New Orleans and
Seattle earning first round byes.
St. Louis wins the #3 seed based upon a better common opponent
record over Kansas City and the Chiefs get an immediate shot to show the
standings wrong in the round 1 matchup.
Carolina is the #4 seed and will host Detroit who ended up tied
with Kansas City but owned the tiebreaker based upon a week 2 win over
the Chiefs.
