Gentlemen (used extremely loosely),
Just received a voice mail from Steggie he left last night. Unfortunately, he took a bad fall last night in the classroom (missed a step during his lecture) and he is in pretty bad shape.
He had all intentions of running the numbers last night but with his accident, he was not able to do much of anything. He was able to turn the board over for lineups.
Please be patient as right now, it's unknown exactly what he might have done to himself (bad sprain in his arm or potentially hyper-extension or dislocation). This is just speculation as I am not a doctor nor do I play one on TV.

Week 10's stuff is up... Sorry for the delay... Mark, thanks for getting that message up. On the personal side, the x-rays (on my right hand, wrist and arm) that were taken last night are still be "interpreted".

Heyas, guys... Incommunicado, I have been, and many of you have been leaving messages for me via one means or another. I apologize. I will tell yous, though, that the reasons for my extended absence (outside of my being utterly disheartened by the, honestly, unexpectedly horrible performance of my team this year -- I expected to at least be competitive) are good. The biggest one regards career, that is, my, in an unbelievably fortuitous turn of events, picking up a class at Windward Community College. For those who might recall, yes, this is that one community college that is squarely on my short list of schools (mostly universities) at which I would like to end up, and I have just gotten my foot in the door.  I will not bore yous with the rest, much of the usual, though: Mama Steg in Hawaii for the holidays (last minute), the learning curve that goes with the first year of a career, dissertation, fathering a four-year-old, blah, blah, blah... Just up to my eyeballs. For those interested, we will talk eventually.
Anyway, league matters... Last year's plaques (Danny and Rob) will, alas, finally be on their way out next week. This is VERY late in the going, I know, but, like last year, I think our plaque recipients (which include myself) will be very pleased with their hardware.  As for the final results and standings for this year, I just did, do not have time this time around to do the weekly updates throughout our extended Week 17 (as I have done for some of the years in the past). However, I do have the raw stats (for Week 17), and the spreadsheet is all set up. There are still a few pending players that are being fielded potentially as late as the Super Bowl. Once all these players' stats are in (which New England and San Francisco losses tomorrow, unlikely though that is to happen, would, I think, cause), I will wrap up our 2012-13 season. As for which way the wind is blowing on the final standings, I really haven't a clue. It seems to me that Joe is looking good, but that is based on just a "feel" of the stats, not on specific analysis or the processing of stats, so take that with a grain of salt. Finally, the web site was down for a few days this past week because I forgot to renew the registration on FantasyFootballer.com.  I ended up being THREE days late on that, that is, after the expiration of the domain. All I can say is thank God it was not poached. 
Well, Over and, again, Out for a bit,
Steg

Well, at this point we are just awaiting the fairly meaningless stats of Michael Crabtree in the NFL Super Bowl in a GBRFL 9th-versus-10th place game, which itself is basically decided. HOWEVER, WE HAVE A CHAMP!!!  I am setting up the site and will unveil shortly after the conclusion tonight (EST) of the Super Bowl!!!    Stay tuned...

Alooooooo-ha! We are getting back to business here for the 2013 season! The 2013 Summer Meeting & Draft has been scheduled for Sunday, August 18th at 3:30 p.m. (EST), and now some of the intial updates to the league site have been made. The "Transactions", "Rosters" and "History" pages have been updated! Of particular note this year, I really cleaned up the presentation on the "History" page and added to it. While I am sure it is a page that you all may not visit often or may not have visited for a long time, after the update and a long-overdue cleanup, now may be the time to drop on by, remind yourselves of our roots and learn some things about your league mates as well as some interesting trivia about our wonderful league and its history. Also, we have, alas, broken the 200-year fantasy football experience mark! That is indicated on the league home page.

Well, I got on something (else like the "History" page) that was long overdue (but is much more important). I worked on the "Schedule" page, the first time since the original expansion in 2002. Since then the NFL has changed their bye-week schedule. It is very difficult to design a generic schedule reusable from season to season, mind you. Ours was okay, but it had been some time since our schedule matched up really well with the NFL's given the changes to the NFL's in relation to bye weeks since 2002. I never messed with it because it gets very complicated (it is not just a matter of shifting games around at random), and I did not have the time. Alas, I finally did this year, and it was a nightmare.  In the end, the tweaks are not huge, but the schedule is now more evenly and appropriately distributed vis-à-vis the NFL's bye-week schedule. I am very pleased! I hope you guys will be, too, although, while you may notice some things, you probably will not notice much. Ah, c'est la vie... ... In any event, go check it out when you get the chance!

Awesome! Thank you! It definitely helps create a more balanced scheduled for all!!

Thanks for the pat on the back, Stevo! It is a demanding task that takes HOURS.  It took over FIFTEEN hours to originally design and about SIX hours to revise yesterday. That said, the schedule is not perfect, far from it indeed. I am just glad I got Week 3, which has not been a bye week for YEARS, and Week 4, which is(/has typically been) a light bye week (at least it is this year), up to 9 games. I still lament that I could not get Weeks 10 and 12 down to 8 games. Thing, though, is, the NFL bye-week schedule can change from year to year, and I do not want to mess with this every season. I just want a generic schedule that will suffice year in and year out. So, it will never be perfect.

Gentlemen, I have a slight challenge with the start time this Sunday that shouldn't cause any problems for the draft but might make me personally miss the first 1/2 hour to 45 minutes of the festivities. If that is the case, I will have one of my awesome daughters in place to make my 1st or 1st and 2nd picks without interfering with anyone's time.
Just wanted to give a heads up that I won't be able to join in until about 4:00 or 4:15 EST. Sorry about that.
