I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

Three weeks into the season and we only have 3 teams left without a loss. On the other end we have 5 teams still looking for a win, but a lot of parity all around the league. Overall not too many surprises yet, but nice to see some teams who have struggled start to see some results so far this year. After this week we are already a quarter of the way through the season, but we have already needed four subs and had to sim a game, so we still need to do better on setting up games. Still looking for an owner for the LA Chargers though I am working with someone to try and get them up to speed and hopefully we’ll have a new owner for them by week 5 or 6. Let’s keep working on the game communication and don’t forget you need to CC me on all contacts so I am in the loop if you need my help getting the games set up. Good luck to all in week 4!

 

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, 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 the start of the regular season, so make sure you go download them and start making contact for week 1 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 07/22/25 *** 

 

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.
