Welcome to the KRFL website. The Knute Rockne Football League was founded in 2001 by Jim Doyle, who served with distinction as our first commissioner thru mid-2003. The KRFL is a 24-team league that simulates the NFL using the Action PC Football game available from Dave Koch Sports (dksports.com). We have our own rookie draft, our own free agency, and our own salary cap and player retention system. Our 24 members have many diverse interests, but they share one common bond, the love of NFL football. For further information or to apply for membership, contact the KRFL commissioner.
I have posted the 2017 team logo file and 2017 team fields files in the "Misc. Files" link on the home page. You can find the link in the upper left hand corner of the home page and/or http://www.aaroncraneinstitute.com/football/miscfiles/
Save each file to your computer, then:
Team Logos File - Extract the contents of the file, just as you would the weekly league file, to your dksports\football\TeamLogos folder
Team Fields File - Extract the contents of the file, just as you would the weekly league file, to your dksports\football\Stadiums folder
The free agent draft is complete. The updated League File and Salary Worksheet can be found in the League Files section of the KRFL website. Let me know Immediately if you find any errors. I will work on making sure all the team logo's and fields are working properly. I think they may have gotten out of whack as I've been going back and forth between my home and work computers.
The only roster issues I have found so far are: BAR does not have the 1 required Long Snapper INV has 5 defensive lineman and the rules require 6 defensive lineman BAR & INV either need to make a trade to be in compliance or use the Free Agent signing the occurs one week before the season starts.
On the Salary Worksheet, the recently drafted 2018 Rookies listed at the bottom of each team's page

Unfortunately I uncovered an issue tonight and as a result I feel the draft should be suspended until Monday.
Tonight I discovered that Warrington’s roster cuts were not processed on the League File I have been using. So there were 14 players on WAR’s roster that should not be. These players should be included as available players in the Draft. The players are listed below and will be deleted from WAR’s roster and put into the draft.
While none of these players are All-Pro’s (after all, they were cut by WAR), I have decided to suspend the draft so that everyone has a chance to take a look at these players over the weekend, and because I need to add them to the draft website. I also found some errors on RVC, RGG and SAL’s rosters on the league file. So I need time to take a look at other team’s roster.
So, the Draft will resume Monday with the start of the $0.100 million salaries rounds. And I will send out a new league file later tonight.
I am very sorry for this situation. I am not sure how both Rick and I missed this on the league file after all this time.
