Another week, another painful loss for the commish. :( Maybe it's time for an addition to the rules: the commish always wins. :) :) Things are starting to look a little drier in the RAFFLE offices. It's times like this that I'm glad I have homeowners insurance -- especially when I saw the bill for the new carpeting installed today. (Now I just need to figure out which computer desk to get.) RAFFLE business: with the uproar about the mailing list, it looks like it's time for an "official" policy on its usage. When posting to the list, put an indication in the message header that indicates which the message is for: "Lg I", "Lg II", or "Lg III". The start of a trade can be posted to the list -- with the league indicator -- but all of the additional messages need to be mailed directly between the owners and NOT through the list. If this doesn't work, there are additional steps I can take -- including removing the addresses from the list until it's time for a league-wide discussion. The last resort is to have Vnet can the list completely. (My feelings on this option are already on record.) Don't forget about the section in the rules titled "Unresponsive Owner- ship". I found a couple small errors in the scoring definitions: FG & Punt blocks returned for a TD. Funny how these things aren't found until someone actually scores FFL points........
