****** NFL TEAM STAT PROJECT ******

UPDATE:  10/2/92
  First, THANKS for the posts you signees are doing!!!  The
  project is begining to make some progress.  One note I have
  is for posters to try and follow the proposed format AS
  CLOSELY AS POSSIBLE.  A standard format will help facilitate
  the writing of parsing software to compile the stats.  Please
  look over the proposed format again, there have been some
  minor changes.

  If you have suggestions on changing the format, please
  send them to me.  I had a good suggestion sent to me by
  Calvin Swartzentruber.  He suggests including a line indicating
  a team's next opponent.  I'm including this in the proposed format
  below.

  Please welcome 2 new posters:
  Philadelphia Eagles - Terry Kent - kenttj@cnsvax.uwec.edu
  Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Leo James - lej@pdn.paradyne.com

  Here is the rest of the current sign-up list:
 
  Minnesota Vikings - Jason Parker - jason@cray.com
  San Francisco Forty-Niners - Felix Tsai - cat@casbah.acns.nwu.edu
  Dallas Cowboys - Glenn Dixon - gdixon@kingsx.?????
  Buffalo Bills - Michael Heil - sport@vax1.mankato.msus.edu
  Miami Dolphins - Micheal Cox - aj639@hela.INS.CWRU.Edu
  Chicago Bears - Ramana Devarapalli - ramana@bert.eecs.uic.edu
  Cincinnati Bengals - Sandeep Aji - saji@thor.ece.uc.edu
  Detroit Lions - William Grant - 343VTQ2@CMUVM.CSV.CMICH.EDU
  Green Bay Packers - John Schrieber - SCHRIEJH@CNSVAX.UWEC.EDU
  Washington Redskins - Michael Brown - mbrown@wam.umd.edu
  Atlanta Falcons - Todd Christiansen - tchriste@ncratl.atlantaga.NCR.COM
  Kansas City Chiefs - ???? - jawiles@eos.ncsu.edu
  
  If there are any mistakes above let me know.  Also if you decide you 
  cannot make posts every week, just let me know, and I'll reopen the
  team for someone else to do (no big deal).

***** NFL TEAM STAT PROJECT DESCRIPTION *****

To provide simple on-line statistics of each NFL team for each
game in a well specified manner by spreading the data entry among
readers of rec.sport.football.pro.

This provides the data on-line for readers to use for various computer
applications, as well as helping to inform readers who may not have
timely access to this data in other media forms.

An individual may sign up to keep statistics for a specific team by
sending email to:

   Jason Parker : jason@cray.com

Jason, will maintain the signup list to ensure that all teams (eventually)
are covered, and that readers do not waste time entering teams that
are already covered.  Be sure to include your name, EMAIL address, and any
suggestions you may have.

If you think this is a good idea and want to sign up, email me the team
you want.  A person signing up will be responsible for making his/her own
team stats posting.  Postings should be made by Wednesday following the
game; Tuesday is better, and Monday best.  Please follow the proposed
format as CLOSELY as possible.

Thanks,
Jason Parker
