Only one more week to go........ Was the Monday night game great or what?....at least until there was five minutes left in the game. At least Jerry was able to get his 1,000th point this season. (For those who haven't heard yet, Jerry picked up a new injury when he landed squarely on his left knee catching the TD -- and broke the patella. I haven't seen any reports saying he's now on IR, but........) I'm going to try to get the season's final report next Tuesday morning before signing off the 'net for Christmas. (I'll be back on the 'net the following Monday to take care of stuff that built up.) LEAGUE II NOTE: There was an error in the Weekk 16 matchups for the last four teams. I've corrected the matchup error before posting this report. (Since the games don't count for much of anything -- the '98 schedule and draft positions aren't affected -- I'm not worrying about it at this point.) 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. IMPORTANT!! The deadline for submitting proposals is 18:00 EST on Friday, January 16, 1998. I'll send the compiled proposals to the Competition Com- mittee members that evening. Votes will be due back the following Friday at 18:00 EST and the final '98 rules will be mailed and posted that weekend. Week has two Saturday games. This will move the lineup deadline to Saturday at 10:30 am EST (again).
