One more week......just need to survive one more week of FFL......... My team lost this week, but for some strange reason I still have to keep the league running for a few others. :) :) Week 17 is a return to the "normal". Trade windows return and all lineups are due as normal on Sunday at 11:00 EST. I'm now accepting proposals for January's Competition Committee E-meeting. I won't have time until New Year's weekend to start compiling them, so they'll be stored in my e-mail until then. (The schedules and draft order for next season will also be posted in early January.) The only issue not eligible for a proposal is an interactive draft. I'm working on developing a potential solution for this, but I don't know if it will be ready for the 2000 draft. (Because of the requirements of my time during draft weekend, I retain my auto-veto on this one issue until the technical solution and the rules are in place.) For Keeper leagues: don't forget that rosters are locked from Week 17's lineup deadline until Feb 1. (This makes sure that changes aren't made based on current rules -- which may change with the outcome of the votes.) The updated FFLM files for all four leagues have been posted to the FTP portion of the site. Standings ~~~~~~~~~ 6: Indians ------------------+ 5: Warlords 3: Sm.
