Always remember in situations like these it defers to whoever has spent the longest on your roster, i.e. whoever is "leftmost" as is displayed on the "Rosters" page. |

It is as clear as listing your drop as your add and add as your drop.

I TOTALLY get where you're coming from, Steve, (damn Trout...  ...  ) but in a sense (and I'm sure you get this) it isn't as bad...

Thanks to Mark for getting this posted...

- Scores & updates probably won't be happening until Saturday at the earliest for the current week.
- The lineup submission should be ready to go later on Friday afternoon/evening.
He may be difficult to reach for just a couple of days and appreciates your patience and understanding.
Lastly, a congratulatory note to DB from me. Suck it. But kudos on your impressive run. |

That is, the lineups section will be turned over sometime tomorrow (yes, Christmas day). I don't have the necessary files here on mom's computer. I have to fire up my laptop and memory-stick them over, and, with a house full of Steggies all bedded for the night  and mine own eyes hanging out of my head,  I am not doing that tonight. I'll try my best to have WEEK 15's stats run before kickoff on Friday night.  Furthermore, thanks to Travis's being on the ball here this week (and not letting a biff snowball on us)  I will have to do a little Week 15 free-agent cleanup. Danny should have been ahead of Warner and me in the standings for Week 14. It does have ramifications on the free-agents for last week. Point being, bottom line, this will almost definitely be one of those weeks where you will pretty much need to be submitting your lineup for the next week before the results for the prior week are posted. I apologize for this. I just came out of term-paper hell and off of a 1,000-mile trip, and it's Christmas. It just is what it is this week. It's just "one of those weeks". Anyway, that's what's up... Thank you in advance for your anticipated understanding and patience... And, Merry Christmas...

Well, everything, alas, is ALL caught up at the league site...
 | I DIGRESS...
If I may be permitted just one more moment of self-pity... Besides the timing of it all, this was about the most EXCRUTIATING process running the league I've EVER endured. I know how most of yous take losing. As I've told many of yous, I honestly can enjoy the general unfolding of the league whether or not I'm in the running, the former of which has been the case for me for five seasons now (but I still derive enjoyment and can still enjoyably run the league), BUT what happened to me this week took a lot out of me. Just imagine for a moment not being able to walk away from it for a bit when things don't go your way, in fact, have to be immersed in it and, worse yet, go the way it went for me at every turn this week. Besides the general administrative nightmare, things couldn't have gone worse for my team; every possible fork in the flowchart went the way of  "take this lump of Christmas coal, old Steg."  Despite playing Trout, a game I should have won, the saving grace was that I was at least in a position to reaquire Jerome Harrison, who I very regrettably happened to cut last week. I had all intentions of cutting Tony Gonzalez and requesting Jerome Harrison in round one of free-agency (in fact, I expressed it to Mark when I spoke with him about doing me the favor of making the post above). Anyway, Merry Christmas, Steve. I gift-wrapped him for you.  DAMN IT!!! |

Thanks for the encouraging words, Joe. This stretch run here this year has been sheer hell for the old Stegger  ...  (and, to be quite honest, not conducive to my wanting to even deal with this stuff).
In any event, the Week 16 stuff is finally up. Heading into Week 17 that means the "Results", "Standings" AND "Schedule" pages have been updated. Enjoy, and good luck to all as we close out the 2009-2010 season. Do remember (as if most of us even care this year) that you can play players in the post-season. Just make sure you indicate the order of the games you want said player fielded in, i.e. W17 (although you don't necessarily need this one), WC, DR, CC, PB, SB (yous can hopefully figure out the acronyms).

Heya, Guys! I hope yous all had a wonderful holidays. What a holiday it's been for the Steggie's... Don't get me wrong... Baby Monica at age one was about as precious as precious can be... I just wish I could have really rolled around and played with her and totally enjoyed my little baby girl. In case yous missed this up in "the Bleachers"...

I'm up to my eyeballs in term  ...  papers; Baby  Monica has been, for pretty much the first time in her life, under the weather,  which has Gino and me stressing, and, looooong story, I've got a broken collarbone...  that I've just been "toughing out"  for the past month!  Anyway, one way or another we are headed  to Mama Steg's in Jersey by no later than Monday, and hopefully Sunday. So, I, again, will continue to be by and large hit-and-miss probably through Christmas.  Over and out... |

And, this collarbone, I am very sad to say, ain't gettin' better. It happened... and was misdiagnosed, i.e., they missed the crack, back in mid-November... I went back in to the doctor in mid-December, and they found the break, but here it is pushing mid-January, and it really doesn't feel any better than it did then.  Mind you, not much can be done about a broken clavicle,... but I'm at my wit's end... I've already got a doctor's appointment scheduled for next Wednesday, and I surely hope there is something they can figure out. Now, as if that isn't drama enough,  on December 28th my mom took a spill and sustained a break to her hip. It could have been waaaaay worse. As most of us know,... broken hips + aging adults usually = bad news. She had a follow-up appointment today, and, as it turns out, it's not that bad. It's very minor and to her lower hip socket, i.e. not a crucial spot. She's already getting around fairly well, but will probably be on home stay for about another month. We got the convalescent ward over here. Suffice it to say, this has made for a hectic and painful holiday season, and things regarding the league are lagging.
At any rate, we're leaving to start our journey back to Illinois on the morrow. I'll start taking care of league matters when we get there and get settled back in at home, which all in all probably won't be until toward the end of next week. Please be patient and consider anything that happens to get done between now and then bonus. Thanks in advance... See yous on the other end...

Okay, guys, alas, with most games having already gone "final", I have updated the league site with Week 17 results. Since I'm getting on this this late here this year, I'm not doing the "1st Qtr., 2nd Qtr.,..." thing. If it doesn't say, "FINAL," then the game is not yet (quite) over; some stats are still pending. Other than that, CONGRATS again to our TWO-time consecutive 1st Place League Champion, DB.  Also, congrats to our 2nd Place finisher, Francis, and to a first-time GBRFL award winner, our 3rd Place finisher, Pakman!  All of that, pending game results notwithstanding, is a done deal.

Heya, Fellas! The remainder of the league site has been updated for the 2010 season, that is, the "Schedule", "Results" and "Standings" pages and the "Lineups" submission section has been turned over so that lineups can now be submitted for Week 1.  Do remember that Week 1 lineups are due by the kickoff of the THURSDAY night game! Enjoy!!! Here we go, guys!!!

Heya, guys! Just to let yous know, regarding the issue I hit yous up with this summer of where I am going to get the raw stats for this year and the significant extra cost I would likely incur, as it turns out, when I had contact with Philly here on the site (Jeff West), who has been letting us jones off his league's CBSSportsline account for the past few years, and was inquiring with him about what minimum level of account I would need to have access to those raw stats that we have to have, he all but cut me off and insisted that we go ahead and use the account for his league. That was very gracious of him. So, while this is something we have to keep in the back of our minds moving forward, thanks to Jeff we're covered... again... for 2010! We all owe a big thanks to Jeff... for all of these years of behind-the-scenes service to us! 
Here's a link for him: http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=;act ion=imsend;to=PhantasyPhilly.

Heya, fellas... As we really hit stride here tomorrow, I wanted to let yous know how/when things are going to get done this year week in and week out. Player transactions will be processed as usual in a timely fashion. On normal weeks they will be done shortly after kickoff. HOWEVER, the posting of results will not be so timely. I have a heavily front-loaded "work week". Let's just put it this way... In terms of my office hours and all my classes, the ones I am teaching and taking taken together, I am done with everything save for one class period of 50 minutes and two office hours by 1:00 Wednesday afternoon. My point is, I am crazy-busy Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday until 1:00. After then, things ease up significantly. I plan to run the stats and have the weekly results and standings up sometime Wednesday late afternoon, evening or night. Bottom line, the chances that I have the stuff done on Tuesday is, on a regular basis, next to none. Alright... That's all. I thank yous up front for your anticipated understanding and patience this season. Here we go!!! Let's get ready to rumble!!!

Heya, Guys! I had a deadline on the submission of a paper to meet tonight, and, suffice it to say... here at almost 3:00 a.m. (CST), what I was working on consumed my Wednesday... afternoon, evening and night. I did make the deadline, incidentally, but, literally, with not a minute to spare.  Anyway, running the stats for the league obviously got tabled. By the time I get to bed tonight it will probably be about 4:00 a.m. That would have me waking up midday tomorrow if I actually get 8 hours of... In any event, I'll be dragging ass, for sure. Point being, I'll have Week 1's results posted sometime tomorrow, hopefully by the evening. I thank you guys in advance for your anticipated understanding and cooperation.

Just a friendly note  to our long-distance guys, the league fee of $50 is due by kickoff of this week's, Week 4's, games. At this late point in the week, your likely only option, unless you've gotten it off to me in the mail already, is electronically. Here's the link by way of which you can go about submitting your payment through one of the on-line options: http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/donate.htm. Please do remember that a little donation scratch is always...  ... Your contribution will of course be recognized on our donations pages.  Thank you for your anticipated consideration. Over and out...
