I thought the leagues were to be combined? Kinda needs to be since we can't see scoring in the other league, which is really the same league. Greg/STATS?

These will run as separate DC leagues and each week George and Sandi Kleemann will combine the scoring minus the opening bid points. It's the same as we ran it last year. So you won't see the other leagues' scoring until Tuesday morning when we post all 28 teams in order from the Kleemanns. Those will be posted on the message boards, by the way.
And I'll tell STATS to make this total points.

KJ,
I will update the spreadsheet that I sent out with the rosters on a weekly basis and send it to everyone. Since Lonny is in League B and I am in League A we can also make sure the accurate standings are posted on each league's message board.

Thanks Jon, but with STATS getting PAID to run 2 leagues, seems like they should be keeping score, not us, doesn't it ?

KJ,
I agree and I talked to Greg and Tom about this, but apparently there is a specific contract with STATS that doesn't include combining more than 14 teams in a group, except for the championship rounds. We can make it work. A contract revision in 2008 would be awesome.

Yeah, I think that is why STATS gets so much crap from so many of us - they prove over and over again that they are a technology provider rather than a fantasy sports service-provider. They don't seem to get it in so many ways which are evident in their lack of doing things that are obvious to so many fantasy players. Too bad, maybe someday they will install someone to manage the NFBC/NFFC offerings that gets it.
I think that every user-oriented change STATS has ever implemented since the beginning has been a direct request from us over some frustrating aspect of their site. Any many changes have gone un-repsonded too. Like the absolute mess that is my STATS home page. Their solution - delete a bunch of links that I would like to see. Thanks STATS!
