   Lg IV-- 1355 pts -- Pech for Hire (Jason Scheeneman)
and the award for most overall goes to:
   Ann Arbor Ice Storm (John Godek), Lg II, 1446 pts

I'll be sending out the ballots in the next day or so for voting on the
RAFFLE All-pro team, the Sleeper of Year, and the Bust of the Year.
(They're due with the Week 16 lineups on Dec 16.)  NOTE -- they'll come
from my account at jt-sw.com, so don't be startled by the new address.


As stated in the rules, the division winners get the top three seeds (just
like the NFL), even if some don't have top-three records.  This scenario
occurred in Leagues I and III.

A few notes for the remainder of the RAFFLE season --
- Trade windows will occur through the post-season.
- Weeks 16 and 17 have Saturday games, so ALL lineups will be due at 10:30
  AM EST on those Saturdays.  (Lineups will be posted and mailed shortly
  afterwards.)

And a few off-season matters --
- If anyone has any rules proposals for the January Competition Committee
  E-meeting, send them in.  I'll post them as they arrive.  The deadline
  for submissions is January 19, 2001, at 18:00 EST.  The results will be
  posted Superbowl weekend, sooner if the votes are received before then.
- If anyone won't be returning for the 2001 season, PLEASE let me know
  asap so that I can get a new owner in place quickly.
- I've already got a few keeper franchises to fill during the off-season.
  (The ones I never filled during this season.)  I'll be extending the
  "official" invite to the eligible Lg IV owners sometime in January.
- The 2001 schedules and draft order will be posted in January.


Home network update -- The backup server has been upgraded and now features
the pair of PIII-550s with a half gig of memory.  (I manage to really screw
something up on it and may have to reformat and rebuild the server before
it can be used.)  Even so, things look like they're on track for moving
the site to the jt-sw.com servers over Christmas / New Year's.


The updated FFLM files for all four leagues have been posted to the FTP
portion of the site.

In the standings -- "x" is division has been won, "y" is playoff berth has
been won, and "z" is not in the playoffs.
