A lot of information here. PLEASE read this entire post.
First weekend in months with no football, except KRFL football that is.......
LEAGUE CALENDAR
Next up on the league calendar is our annual roll-call where members are asked if they will return for the 2017 season. That begins March 1st. I have not heard of anyone who isn’t returning. However, if you know you will not return I would appreciate knowing that as soon as possible so I can work on finding a replacement owner.
FRANCHISE AND TENDER ELIGIBLE PLAYERS
For those of you thinking about your roster in the off season, I have posted the 2017 Franchised Player salaries at http://www.aaroncraneinstitute.com/football/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?11524 and a list of the player franchise & tender eligible on each team in the 2017 Free Agent draft at http://www.aaroncraneinstitute.com/football/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?11530.
2017 FREE AGENT DRAFT
Speaking of the 2017 Free Agent Draft, it will likely need to be delayed a couple of weeks. My job has changed, again, requiring me to spend more time travelling. I will need to make a trip to Asia June 1st to June 11th. So the Free Agent draft will likely start after I return instead of the normal June 1 start.
LEAGUE RULE BOOK PROPOSALS & COMMENT PERIOD
The League Rule Book Amendment Proposals & Comment Period will begin March 10. I will be proposing changes to the playoff system and possibly the salary system. PLEASE HOLD YOUR POSTS UNTIL MARCH 10. A new Forum thread has been created for this at http://www.aaroncraneinstitute.com/football/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewforum.php?32
TEAM LOGOS AND FIELDS
If anyone you wants to make changes to your team’s logo or home field end zone design, let me know and I can work on it. I’ve changed my team colors (the inner female in me is never satisfied!). I am not artist and I use a simple program named Paint.net. But I will do my best for you.
DIVISION YOUR TEAM PLAYS IN
Our rules state:
The assignment of teams to a conference or division will, when possible, be based upon the geographic location of the owners to make scheduling games easier by grouping teams according to time zone. Realignment, if necessary, will take place every three years at the discretion of the League Office.
We made some minor changes last year due to new owners joining us. If you desire to move to a different division to make it easier to schedule your games or for any other reason please inform me and I will see if it possible. One team has already done so, however unless another team wants to change divisions there will most likely be no changes.
I do not believe there is any league wide consensus that we need to do a major reorganization.
------
That is all I can think of for now. If you have Tom Brady’s Superbowl jersey, he’d like it back and you are in big trouble with the Texas Rangers!
