I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

So through 4 weeks we haven’t used too many subs, which is very good, appreciate that everyone wants to play and is on top of their games. We had one game fall through the cracks this week, but it did get done on time and I am sure we will be back to full speed again next week. We have hit the quarter pole of the season now and still have 6 unbeaten teams with 4 of them in the AFC. The NFC appears to be struggling a bit with only 4 teams over .500 on the season and overall we have 4 teams still searching for that first win. I need each of you to keep an eye on your rosters and let me know if anyone who has an in game injury comes up inactive.  I checked all of the rosters, but any help I can get to avoid this problem would be helpful and there is a game update available on our website that everyone should get (see below). If you need a sub, please contact Jeff Shelton asap so he can try and get your hooked up with someone to get your game in.  Make sure you have the latest action update which is available on the website.  Game files are up for week 5, so make sure you go download them and start making contact for week 5 games. If you have any questions, now is the time, so please ask before we get too far into things. 

 

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 09/17/21 *** 

 

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.
