HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Congrats on being invited back. Our Eighth season is upon us! By now, you should all be experts. No excuses for sucking. If you plan on sucking, get out now. Besides huge Dallas scoreboards, Prison-bitch Plaxico, and a rapist quarterback (allegedly), what's new in '09?


NEW FEATURES

1. DIVISIONS!!!! The most exciting change since you last looked in your couch cushion. Our league has adopted a 2-division format, and teams will be placed in either the Hank Fraley Division or the Tim Levcik Division. Division Champs will be awarded a 1st-Round Bye in the playoffs, along with some sort of extra fanfare. Since it's our inaugural year with divisions, please let the Commish's Office know if you have a preference. In the end, we probably won't listen to it, but whatev. No Divisions. Some coaches pointed out that there are no bye weeks in the playoffs. The Commish makes one mistake a year, and this was it. We're sticking with the same awesome model.


2. NEW WAIVER RULES. From the week's 1st Kickoff until TUESDAY, all FA's are re-statused to WAIVERS. You are free to sign these players, but nothing will be processed until Tuesday morning. All waiver signings are based on waiver priority, and when you sign anyone, your priority heads back to the bottom of the pile. This is done to prevent the instant cherry-picking of Mewelde Moore the moment Parker's leg shatters. Since most weeks start on a Sunday, players will usually be FA's until Sunday (hint: that's not the case during Week 1). Here's an example of a normal week:

TUESDAY - Free Agents in "FA" status.
WEDNESDAY - "FA"
THURSDAY - "FA"
FRIDAY - "FA"
SATURDAY - "FA"
SUNDAY - Change to WAIVERS (starts at 1st kickoff)
MONDAY - WAIVERS
TUESDAY - Waivers process. All remaining Free Agents returned to "FA" status.

3. FREE STATTRACKER. Everybody has access to LIVE scores now. The days of TOMMY GUNS and Charlie's Batch hammering away on their calculators are gone forever. Kind of sad, actually.


4. RIVALRY WEEKS? The Official RMU League Schedule will be released on August 26, 2009 at 2:00PM.  ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the league has scheduled an RMU BOWL re-match in Week 1 and some explosive match-ups as the season goes. More than one RIVALRY WEEK has been discussed.



And lastly.....

5. THE UNFORTUNATE RETURN OF PIMPJUICE.... That's right. His career Record is 24-57-1 (.299 winning pct). But --- after being banished in 2008 to the Fantasy Minor Leagues, Pimpjuice actually won his Arena League Super Bowl. Will he finally get his act together in the Bigs?
