I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

And after a terrible week of game play last week, this week was a dream with all games in early despite a couple of subs being needed. NY Giants are the first team to clinch a playoff spot as they have won the NFC East with a win this week and a Seattle loss. Pittsburgh can clinch the AFC Central next week with a win over Chicago (but couldn’t do it last time). The NFC is starting to shape up pretty well with 9 teams really in the playoff hunt with Philadelphia the 9th team a game out of 7th where Seattle and Houston are tied. The AFC is a mess quite honestly with 11 teams still in the race and all 5 teams within a 1 ½ of the top of the West. This week may shake some things out but more than likely will just make it a bigger mess, but it does look like a lot of fun.

 

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 12, 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 11/2/24 *** 

 

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.
