FROM THE DESK OF THE COMMISSIONER....

Here we are with the start of the first game less than 8 hours away, and the site is still all fucked up

As you can see, they are showing the players from whom we picked today's rosters as playing Monday, April 19th. I fugured they just had the dates wrong, and the rosters would lock at 3:00 AM this morning and show Sunday's roster choices for Tuesday April 20th.

However, although it is past 3:00 AM Eastern, seemingly you can still change your roster for today -- assuming that the players we pick even count for today.

Also, it raises the question of when you can pick your team for tomorrow

Here's what I say (in the event they don't have this thing fixed by 2:00 PM):

We have two choices. We can either

a) Go along with however the thing gets straightened out by site. Which, of course, I don't like. or

b) Go by our transaction logs like we did for February 29th.

If we go with "b", then this is what I think:

Any roster changes made after 2:00 PM Eastern today will be assumed to be changes you are making for Sunday.

Any player who does not have an opponent listed next to his name is playing Sunday.

This is really much simpler than it sounds. Assuming everything does not get fixed, the key thing to remember is Do not pick your team for Sunday until after 2:00 PM Eastern time today. Then, only pick from players with no opponent listed next to them.

Then get ready with those transaction logs

I'd say we could all post our teams for today before 2:00 PM, but what happens if someone doesn't read this before then?
