I know that some teams are locked into the playoffs and others are starting to be elimi- nated, but we still need all owners active -- especially when trades are trying to be done. Don't forget that draft picks for the '97 and '98 drafts are acceptable in trades......... When indicating playoff potential I played things a little conservative, figuring a range of 0-150 points per team per week and all losses to all wins for the rest of the season. x-won division y-in playoffs z-eliminated from playoffs Standings ~~~~~~~~~ Record Division Pts Pts W L T W L T For Agnst -------------------------------------------------- Little Giants 6 5 0 3 2 0 922 798 Hell's Kitchen 6 5 0 4 1 0 821 749 Dolphins 6 5 0 2 3 0 739 722 z-Pittsburgh Ironmen 2 9 0 1 4 0 549 858 y-Grizzlies 7 4 0 3 2 0 1019 873 Longhorns 7 4 0 4 1 0 903 894 Frankfort Fatboys 6 5 0 2 3 0 881 806 Sunville SunJewel's 4 7 0 1 4 0 850 923 y-Saginaw Sharks 8 3 0 4 1 0 787 667 Prime Timers 7 4 0 4 2 0 851 764 Heathens 4 7 0 2 2 0 700 756 Bills 3 8 0 0 5 0 704 916 Results ~~~~~~~ Saginaw Sharks ( 59) Dolphins ( 75) Grizzlies (108) Hell's Kitchen ( 62) Longhorns ( 67) Pittsburgh Ironmen ( 36) Frankfort Fatboys ( 90) Little Giants ( 75) Prime Timers ( 89) Sunville SunJewel's( 82) Bills ( 68) Heathens ( 98) Waiver Wire ~~~~~~~~~~~ FFL ------------Dropped------------ -------------Added------------- TM TM Pos Player TM Pos Player ~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 12 Arz RB Leeland McElroy Min RB Leroy Hoard 2 KC WR Lake Dawson KC WR Chris Penn 11 Sea K Todd Peterson Den WR Rod Smith Hou QB Chris Chandler GB WR Terry Mickens Ind RB Lamont Warren Chi RB Raymont Harris Trades ~~~~~~ None.
