Another week, another loss...... :( I hope those in the U.S. had a good Thanksgiving weekend. I changed the oil in the car and got the house back in order after September's little water problem. (Seems a lot of people take advantage of the four-day week- end to take care of things around the home.) I'm now accepting proposals for rules changes for the 1998 Competition Com- mittee E-meeting (to be held in January). I will try to post the proposals to the Site as they make their way to the RAFFLE offices. Because of a Thursday game, there will be no trade windows again this week. Anyone with a Bengal or Oiler will need to declare the player's status by 18:00 EST Thursday. Weeks 16 and 17 each have a pair of Saturday games. This will move the lineup deadline to Saturday at 10:30 am EST for the final two weeks of RAFFLE's season.
