The position of the Packers' Ty Montgomery has, alas, OFFICIALLY been changed to RB. Here is the Packers' updated depth chart: http://www.packers.com/team/depth-chart.html. That is what we go by, so his position moving forward in the GBRFL, at least until further notice, is RB.

Ugh...  Last night or early today our website hosting company, Hostica, decided to change its server settings for security purposes. It has caused a couple web pages at FantasyFootballer.com not to display (correctly) because they employ applications Hostica is no longer supporting. One such page is:
http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/addit.php.
Not a big deal. However, another such page is:
http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/gbrfl/index.php, that is, our league home page!
I was just closing in on finally posting the final 2016-17 results when I realized this. We have got to have our home page working when I get the final results up, so I have diverted my attention and am devoting my time (which I do not have) and energy (which I do not have much of) to familiarizing myself with a new technology and getting this problem rectified first. I apologize for the extended delay here this year (we all pretty much know the results, though, anyway), but these are the kinds of behind-the-scenes booby  traps that crop up from time to time and consume me.

O-kay, guys... The league site has been updated for the close of the 2016-17 season. You can check things out here: http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/gbrfl/index.php. Updates include the "Champions" and "History" pages!
On a critical note, which I have been posting about here as of late (see above), the upgrades our hosting company, Hostica, has recently made to their servers, including but perhaps not limited (as I am stumbling upon things here and there one-by-one) to changing PHP and SSL settings and entirely removing FPSE (old-school Microsoft FrontPage Server extensions), are causing all kinds of snafus on web pages throughout FantasyFootballer.com and our other affiliated domains.
I think "the Gridiron" forum here, alas, is stable, though.
With that said, please let me know of anything strange/seemingly malfunctioning that you notice on any web page. I am aware of many issues, but I am sure not all of them.
Moving forward, the loss of FPSE has MAJOR ramifications heading into next season as, though I generally used FPSE only for a few small things here and there, such as the hit counter on the GBRFL league home page (which I have already taken care of), I built the lineup-submission application with FPSE. Now, I have some knowhow with some newer technology, but no matter how you carve it up, it is going to be a BIG job. In fact, all things considered, it may end up being too big of a job for me to take on this year, and so we may have to tide ourselves over for a year with e-mail or something. We shall see. Obviously, I am going to try my best to have something in place by Week 1. But, at the proverbial end of the day, it just may not be doable this year.

Just please keep checking in throughout the week on that front! |

Thanks for your efforts!!!

It will probably amount to late Wednesday night/Thursday morning for most of you guys on the mainland, but I think with a little luck  I may make it!

Well, fellas, first off, small stuff... I did get the "Schedule" page updated according to our new team numbers. The rest of league site will be updated as needed/over this upcoming weekend... I am just right now.
In any case, MORE IMPORTANTLY, how to go about your Week 1 lineup submissions... Truth is, the situation is only half resolved. THAT SAID, you can go ahead and submit your lineup via the lineup-submissions section of the league site as usual.  They will go through, and you will be able to see your own lineup, but the system will NOT turn over upon kickoff of the Thursday night game so that you can see others'/your opponents' lineups. For now, we may have to share lineups on a thread here. If you have already submitted your lineup to me by private message here on "the Gridiron", I would appreciate your resubmitting it through the lineups section, but if you do not, I will do it for you. Well, that is where things stand, still working on it.  ...

PLEASE read the above... But, as stated above, the lineup-submission form at the league site is working, but, FYI, it does not seem to be working in Microsoft Edge.  It is working just fine in IE and Chrome, though.

Thank you for making it work Steve!!!!!
To everyone else, especially to those not on the draft call, please take the time to enter the FIRST AND LAST name of your players in the lineup. Steve is working on a process that will save some time for him on the back end, but in order for that to work, the complete name needs to be entered.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

You are very welcome, Steve, all. AND, I think I have even greater news. I think we got the other half of the lineups problem (viewing your opponents' lineup) resolved! We unfortunately are still going to have to make do (with a thread or something) here at the beginning of Week 1.
Also, thank you, Steve, for reminding the guys about inputting full names. With other (league) issues taking precedence, the upgrade to the scoring spreadsheet that would make you all's inputting your players' FULL NAMES extremely helpful to me has been tabled for a bit. It would not hurt to start getting into the, ą la Aristotle, good habit of doing it that way, nevertheless. I (and Gino) do plan to attack it at some point this season, preferably sooner than later. (By the way, side note, when it comes to defenses, all I want you to put is the team name, but in full: e.g., Buccaneers.)
Other than that, WOO-HOO,  here we go...  for me from, of all places, Cutter Ford in Pearl City (routine maintenance, no big deal -- but was not thinking it was KICKOFF Thursday when I made the appointment some two weeks ago  )...

Well, fellas... I have good news,... and I have GREAT news...
The good news is that in my effort, albeit piecemeal, to get the league site updated for the new season, the "Transactions" page has, alas, been brought up to date! So, you can see what free agents were acquired in Week 1.
The GREAT news is that for your kickoff Sunday the lineups section is up and running so that you can view others' lineups!!!  We may experience one more hiccup when it comes to turning over the lineups section for Week 2 so that you can submit your lineups, so be prepared for a little hubbub heading into next week. But, other than that, which if it does happen, I do not think will be a big deal, I think I got this thing beat!!! 
Enjoy Week 1!!!
