I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

Denver and NY Giants both are 7-0 and just keep on rolling, who will be the team that can stop them and keep them from meeting in the big game? Miami still searches for their first win, while 4 other teams have just one win and are right there in the lottery discussion. Tennessee and Philadelphia pull off the first trade of the regular season and it was a big one as Jalen Hurts heads to Tennessee to take over behind center while Philly adds some draft capital and a big time cornerback. Definitely some hiccups in getting games in this week as you can see by me sending this out on Tuesday. Unfortunately after a certain time on Monday night it gets too late and things will have to wait, but we should be ready to go for week 8. If you are having trouble with connecting whether physically or in getting games set up, please keep me in the loop so I can plan for these things. Also, if anyone has someone interested in a team, the Chargers are available and I am going to put something up on the Action boards but would prefer someone who we are familiar with, so let me know in the next few days before I start looking deeper into it. Good luck to all, just 3 weeks til the trade deadline, use them wisely!

 

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. If you need a sub, feel free to find your own sub or contact me asap so we 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.  Game files are up for Week 8, so make sure you go download them and start making contact for week 8 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 09/09/24 *** 

 

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.
