[USML Announce] Just Trying to Be Helpful

I stand by my current evaluation--piece of crap.  The old one was 
vastly better.  I've still never had a completely correct roster all 
year--we just gave up on fixing the "Gaudin glitch."  And this week it 
was rejecting my roster transaction for reasons that made no sense at 
all.  It also lack several useful functions of the old site, like being 
able to create stat reports for defined periods.

Ah, but
   I'd did have FAAB dollars left since the successful bid on Betemit 
was 34,

I had been led to believe that a
   blockbuster trade was imminent with Blocker. Guess you're going to 
ride it
   out. Since Brad long ago annointed you as champ, I can't imagine 
there's
  anything to worry about.

Good luck.

All:
?
? Just back from the remote woods of Northern Wisconsin.? I can
confirm that I had trade talks with various teams, making my long drive 
home
today much more enjoyable.? An actual quote from my wife at 12:12
p.m.:? "Well, the deadline has passed."
?
? With regard to Jeff's message above, I was wondering how we should
handle the various bids/results of the weekend.? Some of Jeff's bids 
show
up on the evaluator results as "over limit."? Jeff may well be correct 
in
the message above about how to treat those bids, but I was wondering if 
others
share that view.
?
? I will offer one observation here that I think Jeff's e-mail points
up: I think the All Star Stats website was not worth the extra money we
paid.? I think it could well be a fine system for other leagues, but I
think it is ill-suited to our rules, particularly the e-bay style FAAB
bidding.? In addition, lets not forget the many start-up issues we
experienced at the beginning of the season.? Once the current season
concludes, we should have a discussion about whether to return to TQ 
Stats, or
some other cheaper alternative.? Just one person's opinion.
