And then there were none -- in the NFL at least. With Tampa Bay soundly beating Minnesota, the NFL has no undefeated teams. (RAFFLE, however still has one.) Now if only this year's Chargers could learn how to hold on and win....... News from the NFL owners' meetings in Atlanta -- the scheduling format for 32 teams has been approved, setting the stage for the realignment. Rumor has that it'll be supposedly set by the end of the March owners' meetings. On tap for Wednesday is to award the Superbowls for 2004, '05, and '06. Home network update -- All of the software I need for the new internet servers has arrived, with plans to start building the first box sometime this week. And the usual note: once everything looks good and stable, I'll start the transition away from Vnet's servers to my own. This could be done by Thanksgiving, but I may wait until after that weekend to make the cut-over. Of course, something else could come up, leading to yet another schedule change. :) :) The updated FFLM files for all four leagues have been posted to the FTP portion of the site.
