i would just add that the other leagues i'm in have a monthly excell sheet for every team that includes manager info as well and lists of trades and past drafts. it is so helpful to have these things. i would also help out w/ this if needed. the league file isn't enough. i feel that this would help promote trading w/ people. just a thought i'm having a blast here in this league.
