A few people tried to bench a starter after the Thursday games this week. As a reminder to everyone, I'll quote from the rules: "For weeks with Thurs/Fri games, players involved in the game(s) are locked two hours before the [first] game -- no changes can be made to their status." This means that a player will remain a starter if he's not removed from the lineup before the "lock- time" on that Thursday. When resolving this issue, I keep as much of the submitted lineup intact and leave off only the last player(s) listed at the position in question. No trade windows this week. All Eagles and Chiefs players will have their status locked at 18:30 EST on Thursday. In the standings, x = clinched division, y = clinched playoff spot, and z = eliminated from playoffs. The updated FFLM files for all four leagues have been posted to my space on Vnet's web server. (Links to the files are on the RAFFLE home page.)
