Now that we're past the fourth week and all but three teams have played at least two games, I hold these things to be ironclad:
--All halves will be 18 minutes henceforth.
--As promised (warned), those teams that have not paid in full (there are only a few and, with only a couple egregious exceptions, they don't owe a whole lot). But, after all these years, I'm trying something new. Perhaps my patience, like my bones, has gotten old and brittle.
--There has been a great response to the jersey/T-shirt rule. But it's not perfect. (See the blog.)
--The rosters are also nearly 100% complete. But one team put in only first names, while another put in only last names. We need first and last names; otherwise, people are going to think that you're in Witness Protection.
We've hit our stride; close games, no forfeits. It's going to be a great season.
