I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

Week 5 is completed and we are a third of the way through the season already and halfway to the trade deadline. Another fairly smooth week with all games in with plenty of time to spare and the subs have been working out well, so everyone just keep up the good work and keep things rolling.  Still 5 teams who have yet to have a loss and 4 of them are in the AFC along with the Chargers with just 1 loss currently making up the early playoff pool.  Seattle sits alone atop the NFC but have a huge test with the also undefeated Texans in week 6.  Green Bay and Chicago get their first wins of the season, leaving just 3 teams searching for win #1 as we head to week 6.  Good luck to all and keep up that good work!

 

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 09/14/20 *** 

 

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.
