First, my apologies for being late. I had some consulting work to take care of first thing this morning that kept me out later than I thought and I some research for a paper as well. REMINDER: ** TRADE WINDOWS ARE NOW ON THURSDAYS to give more time to evaluate the ** weekly reports. I will not look at drop/add notes until then, but I ** always check my mailbox for mail. League III had a jarring move by the Echo Division leader. Citing a heavy academic load, Pat Fieldman had to drop out of the League. Fortunately, I found another person to take over the team: Eric Witzgall (eawitga@eos. ncsu.edu). Judging from their performance this week, the Warlords will continue what the Bastards started--it also proves what a good draft (and lots of good luck) will do for you during the season. The following NFL teams don't play in Week 8: DEN, KC, LARD, SD, DALL, NYG, PHIL, WASH Now for the game info: Blowouts of the week (I couldn't decide which one to use): - In League I, the Obliterators were obliterated by the Phantoms 45-18 - and the Bookies got a bad tip from their bookie :), going 41-20. - In League II, the Linemen downed the Buttheads 42-15. Heart-breakers of the week: - The Wolves from League II benefited from the Raiders win over the Broncos, edging out the Bombers 37-32. - Hostetler's performance helped the League III Rabbits jump past the Minions 39-33. There is _still_ an undefeated team in RAFFLE: the League II 69ers are now 7-0. Their next opponent is the Eagles. This week's high score: Phantoms (I) 45 points low score: Airballers (III) 13 points 50+ points: none (again) Standings ~~~~~~~~~~~ Echo Division W L T Per.
