If you haven’t done so yet, please take a close look at your rosters, both at TQS and the Excel file in the Download Center, and be sure I’ve got your players, salaries, and contract statuses correct.

This is especially important for the Excel rosters, as that's what I use as the Official Record of salaries and contracts.

NOTE: Some Reserve List guys still have a Z contract listed, or don't have a contract listed at all. These are guys I need to research a bit (whether they still have rookie status, whether they'd been on a CFCL active roster in past seasons, etc), and I haven't had the time to look into it yet.

Mid-Week Transactions

Just a reminder about making mid-week transactions. If you have a player come off or go on the disabled list or a player called up from or sent down to the minor leagues in the middle of a reporting period, you can reserve or activate that player immediately. Likewise, CFCL trades can be made effective any day of the week.

The thing to keep in mind for these kinds of moves is that the deadline for reporting them is Noon each day – not 4:00 PM, which we use for the weekly transaction deadline on Fridays.

Since our weekly period runs Saturday through Friday, I will not be able to post the standings report each week until the stats have been generated following Friday’s games. So that means the standings report and ZIP file will not be updated until sometime on Saturday each week.

Rebel Fans Flock to Join Up

Dem Rebel’s home opener was sparsely attended this week, with many of the key members of the Rebel faithful volunteering for service in Iraq. In case you missed it, here’s a clipping about the new force formed by the Pentagon, which holds special attraction to much of the Rebel fan base:
