I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

All games in on time again, keeping subs to a minimum, been a solid season so far, let’s keep up the good work over the final 6 weeks of games. In the AFC, 6 teams solidly in the playoffs and 3 teams fighting for the 7th seed, but that can change pretty quickly. Indianapolis is down to a 1 game lead in the conference over Denver and then we have 4 teams who are fighting for the 4 seed. 4 teams look to be pretty much out of it while Chicago sits on the fence between playoffs and season over. In the NFC, still a good fight at the top of the conference between NY Giants, New England and Arizona. Kansas City is the #4 seed and Houston and New Orleans are in good shape. That leaves Atlanta and Detroit tied for the #7 seed with 3 teams 1 game back. Should be some good races as we head towards the final weeks of the season, good luck to all!

 

Please make sure to get started on game contacts asap and don’t forget to CC me on all of them so I can make sure games are getting set up smoothly.  Let’s see if we can hit the first week deadline with all games played head-to-head and as always if you need help let us know.  If you need a sub, please contact Jeff Shelton asap so he can try and get you hooked up with someone to get your game in.  Make sure you have the latest action update which is available on the website.  Updated game files are up, so make sure you go download them and start making contact for week 12 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 09/23/23 *** 

 

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.
