I. MESSAGE
FROM THE COMMISSIONER
Can you
believe we are already a quarter of the way through the season?
Down to just three teams who are undefeated at this point still one
expected as New Orleans continues to roll and two that no one would have bet on
when the season started in Philadelphia and San Francisco.
Also we have only 3 teams left that need a win, hopefully those guys can
get rid of the donut this week. Game files are located on the website and are
ready for week 5. Please make sure
you get started on game contacts asap, home teams should make contact by
Wednesday and the game should be set up no later than Thursday of each week.
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.
***There is a new game update available on the website, dated
8/10/17 ***
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.
